To want a humane method of getting rid of mice?

[biggirlknickers]

I’ve had them before and used the no kill traps but they were next to useless. My exH then got some proper traps and they worked but obviously resulted in a lot of dead mice.

Can anyone advise me? Do those sonic thingies work?

Trip-Trap plus chocolate worked well for us - got the blighter in about half an hour.

Yep mousetrap with chocolate buttons. Works a dream.

Peanut butter works in the trap too !

Tipping up humane traps worked for me. I then released them far away with a supply of food! We now have a plug in sonic thing and have no mice in a very old mouse-heaven type house.

The number of mice cats catch depends on the available mice! In my old house (country cottage, overrun with mice), my cat caught mice all the time. Indoors and out. We moved to a house in town and he hasn’t caught a single mouse. There are so many cats in this neighbourhood that the mouse population must be very small. So Palmerston might not be a bad mouser!

I managed by trapping and releasing (more than 1 mile away. Since I lived on the edge of huge woodland I figured they'd come from the woods and could go back there just further away) and then a multi pronged approach of bunging up holes, being fastidious about cleanliness and food in sealed robust containers, and alternating electric buzzy thing and borrowing neighbour's cat. Lots of strong scented stuff too - think I regularly bleached out floors and cupboards and left cotton wool balls with peppermint/tea tree/citronella (can't remember which, have a Google) under cupboards and in likely routes, around doorways etc. It did work.

Least humane way is glue traps and poison please don't use either of those, those things are awful.
