Just been informed of my next door neighbour that the other evening they
spotted what they think was a mouse crawling up my outside wall where
too they do not know, do mice or rats climb up walls .....have assured
the missus that i will get some mouse traps, where do i position them
and what bait is best.....CHEERS

Rodents like cover and wall edges - so traps placed at bases of walls,
preferrably with some cover around them. Bait: chocolate... mice and rats
*love* chocolate.

Even better get cat a cat or three for a more 'natural' pest control
approach.
