Try a big glob of peanut butter in the trap, I had a mouse a while back and put a teeny bit on the trap, well the little soandso was clever and must have just reached in and licked it off (do mice have long tongues) but when I put a big glob on, he must have got greedy, cos there he was dead the next day

Hmmm have been having the cat conversation with my hubby for the last 24 hours. Mother in law and niece are here at the mo, and they are definitely on my side to get a cat, but then we will have to move it to Oz with us next year, so I kind of think I should hold off until we're settled to save distressing an animal unneccessarily. (Not saying you shouldn't transport one if you already have one, but not sure that we should get one knowing we're only temporary that is)

yeah i agree, try peanut butter first before you go and buy a cat. i've heard a few times that it works rather well......not for the poor mouse tho! lol

A Cat Is For Life. Not Just For Getting Rid Of Creepy-Crawlies. Having said that I'm considering one myself. I'm told they're the best anti-scorpion device going...
