Thanks. It sounds good but it is really the same thing as I am doing
now.


When I use an old piece of timber the birds and mice are kept
out..-and I get to cover a largish area quite easily.

Are you using ferric phosphate pellets yourself Bob ?

I do on occasion. Unlike the old slug bait, I never see the results, so it's
hard to tell how well it works.
