If traps are used - use peanut button and a tie wrap on the trip plate.
Make sure the peanut butter is over the whole mess - not to much -

The mouse/rat will grab the wire and shake its head! - Every time.

Its going to get cold out and that means the mice come in. Any tips on how
to keep them out of my welders in the garage? I will set traps but
anything else to prevent the little PITAs out of my stuff.


Hi Wayne,

My brother in law swears by the plug in trap that emits a high
pitched squeel that can't be heard of by the human ear. He used it in his
quonset to keep mice out of his combine and tractor. I also park our
motorhome in this building and have has no mice in it since he started using
it.( we had a few perviouse years).

I respectfully disagree with the other posters saying to use poison as
mice will pick some of the damndest places to die...then you have you have
the smell and a body to look for. Traps are good as the trap would "Anchor"
them so you can at least find them to dispose them. I reccomend a
combination of traps and this squeel emitter seen at that link. I see that
the link is in the UK as all I did was google searched pest control...I know
they can be bought in the States and Canada with a better search... Hope
that was of some help....Jim
