Since the weather turned cooler, Ive had an influx of field mice into the
house. They have been munching on the cereals that my wife stores in the
cupboard under the stairs.
Now I have been setting traps for the last two weeks and got Zilch.
Watched
the Grime fighters the other night and saw the pest control guy used
Chocolate Spread to bait his traps, tried it last night, caught 2 of the
little buggers. Apparently Peanut Butter is good as well. )


I've been using peanut butter for ages and it is very effective.

I warm the metal prong of a steel trap, and press a piece of milk
chocolate onto it.

That's very effective too.
