mouse hole

[southeastastra]

i have one, how do i fill it? there seems to be a tunnel leading to outside, can i just stuff it was newspaper then fill it with polyfilla?

make it as solid as possible, how about gravel?

Expandable foam.

and then cement over it.

and then move

We used the above items after a pregnant rat decided to use our home as a labour suite.
Its worked, thank god!

above items?
I meant below items

thanks expandable foam sounds good, blinkin mouse

I've got to go down this route too I think - caught and disposed of mum and have been clearing up dead babies ever since....yuck!

i spent ages fixing the hole and sealing up any gaps, then put down a trap. this morning a mouse had taken up residence in there. grr where are they coming from?

mice can get in through a hole the same diameter as a biro! So have you got any really small holes too?

a biro? yes there are probably really really small gaps, more polyfilla then

yep - a biro - amazing eh! I learnt that on a food hygiene course, made me inspect my door frames I can tell you. Apparently a rat only needs a hole the diameter of a 50p (same source!)

oh shte, serves me right for being flippant on this thread, we have got the little shtes now too. we haven't a hope of blocking the holes. will poison be enought or should be get a cat?

i had to buy some mice killer as they have got into the front shed where dp keeps his precious comics! they are little boxes with poison in them, i don't like doing it and would rather catch them alive but there seems to be quite a few of them..

i've found a dead one in the 'humane' trap. my son asked if it had killed itself, i wouldn't mind but next door have two cats, they're just not let out
