What is the best mouse poison for the little buggers. We have one in our shop that has hauled off or eaten about 2 pounds of our vole poison. Too small to set off traps. Had to put a trail cam up to see what was going on. Help!

Peanut butter on the trigger, just a bit top and bottom.
If need be, wrap cheese cloth or something similar around the peanut butter.



What is vole poison.

I use mouse poison in stations to kill voles.

Victor Tincat or snap traps. Why are they there? Food source and nesting?

Contrac.

Need to put it in bait boxes though, pets will get into it and it will kill them.

Isn't cheap.

Battling that same thing here on this side of the valley. Bad time of year for rats and mice.
Don't put out poison cakes though.. They just crawl off under somewhere and rot and it really does stink like the end of the world.
Old school traps with peanut butter, sticky pads, enclosed bait stations are better.

Peanut butter is good,put some on the top and bottom of trigger plates.
Make it so they have to work at getting to it.
You'll get'em.
Glue boards work also

We had a terrible problem in our deer camp. I got one of the made in USA, "Walk the Plank" mouse traps that you put on a 5 gallon bucket (Ebay), and I soon had our cabin pretty much mouse free after a couple weeks. You can set the sensitivity with a screw for the tiny buggers. If you are going to check it every day, just use water with cheap cooking oil on top of it. The cooking oil suffocates them pretty quick. Make the water too deep for them to hit bottom. I baited it with peanut butter. At our camp, I used RV antifreeze in cold weather. It actually sort of "pickled" them and they didn't stink up the place if you checked it once a week. The best things about these type traps is, they re-set themselves after ever mouse and you can catch a bunch at once.

Not sure you can get it there, here "Mouse off" is the go in the paddock...DO NOT use it in or around habitation as it is bloody dangerous.

The best Mouse Killer system I have found is Kraft Peanut Butter with simple mouse traps. Mice LOVE Peanut Butter and can not resist!

Jim, is that the chit that smells like garlic?

Used to treat grain for bugs?


I must thinking of something else, I've used a bunch of weevil-cide.


Nope just googled.
