Catching Mice

The council will lay down poison bait which isn't good news where there are toddlers about.
I recommend a plug in repeller. If you have a 2 storey house you are likely to have 2 electric ring mains, so will need one plugged in on each floor.

Councils are not stupid. If they lay down poison it will be under floorboards, behind skirting boards and in inaccessible places. Do you really think they would risk being prosecuted for causing death by poisoning?

I had to get the local council in when we had an infestation, 30 years ago. I had a toddler and 2 older children and there was no way they could have accessed the bait. The infestation was cleared within 2 weeks.
 
Might give the council a call

Will see in the morning if I have another, dont wanna disturb the boys now just to check

Might have just had the one, but if i have had one there is nothing to stop more turning up so poison may be the way to go, im not dabbling in that though, will leave it to the professionals.

Do the council charge you for it?

Think yourself lucky, I have to convince the girls in my house that mice being 'cute' is not a reason to allow them to roam around the kitchen.
