Catching Mice
 

After requesting and kindly beain loaned a mouse trap i set the trap, with a bit of caramel keg as the bait (how lucky was that mouse!!!) went up 15 minutes later to find an empty trap.........no mouse and no chocolate, how unimpressed am I!!!!

I have tried again, with chocolate spead this time, hopefully I will be more successfull!!!

Any other suggestions??

Daft question but have you set it correctly?

Re: Catching Mice
 

erm..........yes I had, well I think i had, it seemed to work that way, the trap had gone off but there was no mouse

they like peanut butter.... I have one of them plug in thingys and I have never seen any mice ( so I think they must work ) because I live near to woods and fields...

Re: Catching Mice
 

agree with magpie..they do like peanut butter, and they wont be able to nick it cuz it sticks to the trap so they have to really get on it to eat it:D

Re: Catching Mice
 

Thats why for the 2nd attempt ive tried chocolate spread :D it obviously likes chocolate so fingers crossed

Their bladders are in a constant state of dribbling leaving urine everywhere they go.
