    You'd wanna be sure to go a good distance away from your house before you release the mouse though, as they can find their way back.

    "Live capture" I'm out. Good ol neckbreakers ftw.

    We caught him in a trap with a bit of chocolate.

    Set the trap again and blocked up the gap so hopefully that's it.

    I've had no more since my three amigos caught on Christmas Eve.

    That snap I heard the other night must have been a plastic bottle expanding in the recycling bin, I'll be keeping the traps set for another few weeks though before I rest easy.

    I'd recommend an electronic trap like one of these
    http://www.victorpest.com/store/mouse-control/m2524s

    I found it easier, cleaner and more reliable than normal trap.

    Sometimes they bleed with the normal trap and never like resetting them and often found that they can manage to get away with the bait sometimes if it's not set sensitive enough.

    The electronic one was foolproof and clean and very good at killing them!

    I heard these traps are not that humane, think it was on a vegan site or animal welfare site, they were saying killing with normal traps was the way to go if you do want rid of them. I think if you go off miles away and dump it out it is all confused and can end up dying of hunger or something, they are meant to be quite disorientated.


    If putting down traps have hte trigger facing the wall. They are meant to scurry along walls, and you can have 2-3 traps in a row right against each other. You get packs of traps in €2 shops or dealz, FAR cheaper than the likes of woodies.
