I had a mouse getting in to the air ducts & storing pecans in my 4 wheeler. So I fixed that problem.

They're really bad over here this year. It's been a constant battle.
They mice have been so bad I'm considering getting a barn cat or two. And I really don't like cats.

Keep this in mind too....when you have lots of mice, they draw in lots of snakes. I kill alot more copperheads in years the mice are running wild. I'd imagine rattlers are attracted to plentiful food like a mouse buffet!
Yep, we have a cat here that keeps the mice down, itโs a feral cat that has been hanging around here for about 6 months. I havenโt seen any snakes at all.
Iโve killed three this past two weeks in my garage. Donโt think theyโre living in it yet as I havenโt seen any mouse sign. Likely coming in from the garage door looking for a home. โSNAP!!!!โ โHey Sam have you seen Charlie?โ โSam??โ
I found sign yesturday in the garage. Put down glue traps n peanut butter. Caught 5 last night
This time of year they want inside to keep warm. I always caught several in the early fall in my garage. They were attracted to the freezer as it was warm underneath where the compressor was so 3 or 4 traps set around it and I used a bread and peanut butter mix for bait. I would catch 25 or 30 every fall in the garage.
My mother-in-law puts down (downy or bounce, will have to ask) dryer sheets in the garage, seems to work.
Those bastages crawled in my UTV last winter and chewed a bunch of wires up.
