Climbing mouse or rat

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 They seem to be able to climb walls. We often get them here in Normandy in the Winter as they sneak in upstairs somehow for some warmth. I always put mouse bait down. The pinkish looking grains. Seems to do the trick. Only down side is they may die under the floorboards and smell for a week or two as they decompose. Mouse traps avoid this situation, but you may be called upon to "do the deed" if the trap just catches one by a limb instead of killing it. However, better to catch them. Not only can they spread disease they can gnaw on electric cables and cause fires. Look out for the tell-tale mouse droppings and put traps / bait around there. -- David in Normandy.
