I hope I can get rid of them all .
I simply cannot kill them by poison is so cruel added to that I have a dog and although they are in the attic field mice do come out at night . A dead poisoned mouse in the garden would be a serious danger to a dog.


Tis true, Muddy.
As you have probably heard me say before, I nearly lost my oldest Beddie through that.
Vomitting up blood she was, dash to the emergency vets at 12.30 at night, and told to prepare myself for her not to see morning.

He got a nurse in immediately, put my girl on a drip all night, and she made it through the night and is still with me today, even though she has been ill with pancreatitis all over Christmas.
At turned 14 now, she's my little miracle to recover.

No worries Pauline humane traps have a handle on the top to avoid this possibility . The trap release is also well outside the cage.

Re: Mice in the Attic

I however know what your game is you have recreated yourself too many times and your modus operandi is exactly the same .

You hit on my threads far too soon for any genuine newbie .

Your intention is to bait ,offend and flame before taking your leave .


As you clearly want to be a member of this forum - and why not it is by far the best - please stop doing this its unpleasant and unnecessary .

Wow! Quite a colony in your loft then. Are you sure they aren't all sneaking back in when you aren't looking.

Re: Mice in the Attic

A friend went into her kitchen and was horrified to see a dead rat in her kitchen , dont know how it got there but she called her father to come quickly and help her . Dad came and assessed it was dead then bent down to pick it up and it bit him .......eeeek it wasnt dead perhaps almost . Dad had to go to the hospital for necessary medication. Thank goodness it wasnt one of the children .

Yuk it makes my tummy feel wobbly
