Well, my solution is to kill them all....by what ever means are the most
appealing to you....We use "just one bite" in our greenhouses...the bar
kind...put them in a pot proped up enough to let the mouse in....w/o
letting the pets in........this stuff is fatal to dogs
Some folks nail it to structures up out of the way of creatures we
love...kids, dogs, cats etc. those little mice can climb anywhere..
