For me peanut butter works well. If the mouse is not springing the trap
then perhaps too much bait is being used.

Little balls of cooked mashed potato work better but these tend to dry
out within a day at which point they become less effective.

I note that on one of the TV reality programs about catching rats the
trick was to bait a nail (with peanut butter) a couple of inches up the
wall and put the trap on the floor beneath.

I think it's likely, all the dogs we've ever had will chase and catch
mice as well as rats. These dogs include a mixed-up labrador
lookalike, a collie-alsatian cross (he looked like a huge collie!), a
large munsterlander (look it up) and currently two Labradors. The
labradors are least likely to actually chase mice or rats but the cats
encourage them!

How to train the dog?

:-)

No word of a lie.

I was working in a secure mental health unit last week. This is the sort
of place where you have to carry a panic alarm call button with you.

When I was in the staff room the staff were discussing the shock alarm
collars they had bought for their dogs FFS.

I was attacked once when working there. This was by an old one legged
lady in a wheelchair.

Now if you did not already know I have a long suffering girlfriend and
when I told her about it she said "Why did you not just get hold of the
wheelchair and whizz her around the room until she was sick?"

Do you see why I love her?

Sorry, I didn't look.

I know terriers do rats but they bother with
mice?

I can't see why not?

Ours got hold of a pigeon the other day and goes mental when he sees a
fox (or cat). He seems to think grey squirrels are good for a laugh
... and crows.

He also doesn't seem to like anyone within 10m of the car, or house,
or us, even if they are on a motorcycle ...

But he was a rescue and we have no idea what he did for the ~5 years
(vets estimate) before we got him (unchipped).



Needs a good kicking IMHO.

No word of a lie.

I was working in a secure mental health unit last week. This is the sort
of place where you have to carry a panic alarm call button with you.

When I was in the staff room the staff were discussing the shock alarm
collars they had bought for their dogs FFS.

I was attacked once when working there. This was by an old one legged
lady in a wheelchair.

Now if you did not already know I have a long suffering girlfriend and
when I told her about it she said "Why did you not just get hold of the
wheelchair and whizz her around the room until she was sick?"

Do you see why I love her?


Good to see can think outside the box.

The staff can give their dogs electric shocks but are **** scared of
their clients/users/customers/inmates? What are they called these days
that is PC/fashionable?

Actually that was not a bad place to work. You needed to escorted on the
next ward I worked in.

Just remember to be nice to the staff in places like that. You never
know if you'll be a customer one day.

The staff should be nice to the customers on the same basis :-)
