				 | I worked in a welding shop in Lowell that was infested with rats
 We used to play kick ball with them when they ran around the shop then someone would grab them with pliers and throw them in the wood stove
 
 My shed was infested with them this summer, 2 boxes of Decon seemed to take care of them, I am still finding nests everywhere/ place I look
 
 I f'n hate mice
 
 I like the flour idea Raven

				mice
			 
 Have them in my shed from time to time. found a plastic trap that works every time. h-d had them. I even let a friend use a couple.He c aught 5 mice in the first night. They are gray in color made by intruder. they are actually called "the better mouse trap."Victor makes one that's similar but not half as good. I drill a small hole in the bottom corner and put a thin piece of wire tired off to any thing near by.use peanut butter on the center pad. They look like the one with jaws a few threads back but no teeth.      Good hunting mike. |

				 | CARNAGE!
 4 days without anything moving. This morning there's dcon across a 3' area, the sticky bait trap/dcon combination is under a pallet holding a tool cabinet and it's well over 2' away from where it was.
 
 And the thing is empty.
 
 WTF!
 
 Skippy you saw how this was setup. That little black thing next to the dcon box is the glue trap sticking up in the air under the pallet.

				 | Just walked outside and there was one gray mouse sitting in the parking lot like he just dropped from exhaustion. Thing was fresh dead too. 
 I still can't believe a mouse could do this much.

				 | I just found out the mice in my barn was carrying the Dcon pellets away and storing them for future use.  They didn't eat right away, WTF, WTF.  I think I'll buy some traps, small and large, might be a squirrel as well eating the stuff. |

				 | Perhaps you should try to become one with the mouse? Learn its ways adapt its customs, gain its trust. Maybe then you be able to succeed in crushing his skull. |

				 | gotten to the point I have to put a trap in my truck now. I only drive it maybe  once every 2 weeks this time of year now and somehow mice are getting in there . Had nice nest in the glove box last winter. I got one this morning in the trap, DOA on the passenger floor. 1 down more to go i would expect. |

 |  LOL Mike, you want me to balance the trap on a BB after holding 
my breath that I won't loose a finger while just setting it.   
That would be a 2 valium job for me.     |

				 | i was just reading that a small ball of cotton with some peppermint oil on it will drive mice
 out of anywhere they might be encroaching....
 
 Paul ,
 you must have a rust hole some where on that truck
 that's allowing them to get in.

She lost it!!  She never has any food or crumbs  in there so she was and I were at a loss.  Good thing she was in the driveway and not actually driving.  I took care of it, and checked under the hood as I couldn’t figure out how it could have got in.  I noticed a nest tucked  up under engine area that I couldn’t get access to.  She had to have some routine maintenance done anyway and when I brought it to our mechanic he said, “oh yea, Camry’s get them all the time”.  He was working on one the previous day and a mouse jumped out.  He told me that they go to the engine first for the heat and they eventually find their way to the media filter where they chew through it and get access to the inside. |
