A few weeks ago I started to hear scratching in the walls of my kitchen. Put some humane mousetraps down but didn’t catch anything. Then on Monday I opened the door to let the dog out and a mouse ran in! Luckily it got caught in the trap that day so I released it a few fields away that evening on the dog walk. Tonight I’ve gone out to get the laundry off the line and there’s two mice on the wall! Needless to say, the laundry is staying out over night! I was thinking about putting some of the humane traps out around the kitchen door to try and catch the mice, but I’m wondering if it’s totally pointless since it’s outside so there’s bound to be hundreds of mice there? I don’t want them digging through the wall into my house. I’ve found two holes that could be them, but I don’t want to seal them up with the mice inside because then they’ll definitely try and dig out? What do I do? I don’t want to kill them, would mice traps work?
