Mice

[Sixpack595]

I keep hearing about spring trap not working here. WTF? Are they Victors? The all metal kind? Never had one fail with the string trick. Almost never fail otherwise. Not all spring traps are equal. The cheap knockoff ones don't work for shit. Glue traps are OK, but I've had better luck with the Victors.

[Hangover Heartattack]

yeah ive tried victor but not with the string trick. next time the mice retrun, and im pretty sure they have, i'll give it a go.

I hate mieces to pieces.

All right, Sixpack, I'm changing my vote to VICTOR. Caught this little fucker right under my computer desk. now I probably need to check all my wires - no wonder my shits running slow.

SAY CHEESE MOTHERFUCKER!!!

[waahoohah]

I never even saw a mouse in my place until Caesar, ever the conqueror, vanquished this varmint for the greater glory of Rome:



I haven't seen a mouse since, either, the cowards...

Check this out -
I raised my dog (and my mice) on Pedigree and I usually buy the 22 lb bag. It comes with the zip lock top to keep the food fresh. Last night I put the empty food bag next to the trash can in my kitchen and a while later I hear something. I look and there is a mouse in the bag but he can't get out. I ziplock the top and figure I could stomp him, but I decided to just put the bag outside. It's about 8 degrees out . I check on him in an hour and he's a frozen mouse nugget. I pull him outta the bag and toss him in the street. I put the bag back in the kitchen.
This morning when I woke I could hear another rattling in the kitchen. I look and its another mouse in the dogfood bag. I zip it up and toss the bag in the yard on my way to work. He was well stiffened by the time I got home so I threw him in the street.
Tomorrows trash day but I'm keeping this bag for awhile

I learned from the maintenance guy at my storage unit that mice eat dry dog food as an antidote to poison. They had an infestation last year and put poison all around. They noticed that the mice had eaten the bait, but they never ffound any dead mice. It was discovered that one of the units had a shitload of dry dog food being stored and they would go eat a bunch of it after ingesting the poison, thereby not dying.

Interesting.

I first realized I had mice in my last house when I went to play hockey one night and found one of my skates packed completely full of dry dog food. At first I thought one of my friends had been fucking with me, then realized it was mice hoarding the stuff.

I got the little fuckers in the garage, aced about 8 of them thus far. Been looking into bucket traps, or maybe improvising with a Miracle Whip jar with peanut butter smeared on the inside, and half filled with antifreeze. If I find the Co2 pistol, the beer and a chair may be a supplementary diversion.

I've always gone the D-Con route, don't just leave it all in the giant wedge though. Spread it around a little. Pets and kids can complicate things slightly but I'm sure you'll figure it out.

D-con works great! Had a grey rat under my house last winter. Big fucker...anyway, one little brick of the d-con was all it took. Three days and he started stinking something fierce! I went under the house and he was dead and dried up pretty good. didn't keep the maggots away though.

Shit that was nasty...

My buddy is a lazy cunt who refuses to seal up holes in his foundation, so every few months we get to become great white hunters tracking the elusive Mus musculus.

In my vast experience I feel the old standard is the best.

Victor.

These hurt my fingers.

That's proof that they're working.

Mr. Jinx...where are Dixie and Pixie?

Funniest.Cartoon.EVAR!


BTW, Sixpack is absolutely correct about there being no substitute for Victor snap traps. And if you ever have a rat problem, they make giant ones as well that are just as effective.

An update:

I came home from work one night to find my cat sitting by the front door with a dead mouse at her paws, looking very proud of herself.

I love presents that require me to sanitize the floor.

A few weeks later, I woke up to find one of my traps (They're in the bedroom. The cat doesn't go in there.) had sprung, but there was no mouse in it.

So I'm pretty sure there's a giant, pissed off mouse with a broken leg and a grudge somewhere in my building.
