How do you get rid of these nasty things from under the mulch around plants?

TIA,

Cindy

Well you would have to get rid of the mulch. That is the type of
environment they live in. If they were a major problem getting into
the home, that would be the areas to treat, the outside flower/mulch
beds near the home to reduce their numbers, never totally eliminating
them.

It is said that the early bird gets the worm,
but it is the second mouse that gets the cheese.
