Mice in the house
Is there any way to deter mice from coming in a house (besides cats - we
have four of them)? Also, how do we get rid of the mice already in the house? Thanks. |

The best bait is a fresh raisin, crushed onto the bait pan. They can't tug it off without springing the trap. Good suggestion - but they keep coming in - even though I have four cats. |

Your cats are all indoor cats, aren't they? |

Your cats are all indoor cats, aren't they? Yes. Seems to me your choices are limited to: a) get a few outdoor cats b) find, and plug, the openings that the mice are using to get in c) stop leaving food for the mice -- this includes any human or pet food in any container that a mouse can chew through d) live with the problem. |
