Bergallmaster Posted April 30, 2018 Report Share Posted April 30, 2018 We have a mouse or 2 that seem to thwart us at every turn. I put out 6 traps along walls using both peanut butter and cheese. The mouse has shown no interest. Put out a few glue traps but nothing. Don't want to use poison due to dogs and kids. Any other ideas? the human race has proved darwins theory of evolution wrong. we let the dumb survive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny F Posted May 3, 2018 Report Share Posted May 3, 2018 Best bait is chocolate. Put some on the glue trap also. Make sure the dog can't get at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linesideslayer Posted May 3, 2018 Report Share Posted May 3, 2018 Tie strings to all the possible doors, cracks, and windows that the mice are getting into your house from and attach them to a teddy bear and sit across from the bear armed to the teeth all night long. If the bear moves one smidgeon, open fire on anything moving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linesideslayer Posted May 3, 2018 Report Share Posted May 3, 2018 I will add one tip that should help you out. Magic Thread, it is not just for baiting a hook! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagles Dare Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 If the mouse won't touch the bait I don't know what to tell you. But if they're stealing the bait put a small pebble under the trap so it doesn't sit stable. Improves the catch rate dramatically. I'll have mine on the rocks.

Bergallmaster Posted May 4, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 (edited) It won't even touch the bait. Ill try some chocolate and magic thread.

north-shore fisha Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 (edited) If it isn't touching the bait, it probably isn't hungry because it is feeding somewhere other than where the trap is. We had a mouse problem a few years ago. Went through the entire house to find what they were eating. Bastards were getting into the very back of a lazy susan in the kitchen and biting open sugar and flour bags. We also emptied every drawer and cabinet in the kitchen. There were mouse droppings everywhere. Friggin nasty. We threw just about everything out and after that everything in the kitchen cabinets got put in tupperware containers. Once they were cut off from the food supply, they began going after the peanut butter in the traps. It was then open season. Haven't had a problem since.

skinnywater Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 Small amount of peanut butter with a couple black oil sunflower seeds stuck into it. Gets them every time. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not my trap/video, I don’t know what was used; pretty interesting trap though.
