He is brill on mice and small rats. He doesn't do the big rats, he says he doesn't like being bitten by their huge teeth. I have to get the terriers in for that. Got one, thanks. She's pretty great on mice and voles too, luckily we don't have rats. But there are far too many here in the deep country for her to keep up with even at 2-3 /day, and for the time being more cats are not in the cards. Also, she likes the easy mice and voles from the hedgerows, not the inside ones. Even in the house she's not that interested. My cat says your cat is lazy.and doesn't deserve such a nice home. My cat says he woukl be more than ashamed if we had mice in the house.;-) If she doesn't catch mice in the house, you could try one of those catch alive box traps, but you have to release them quite a way away or they will come back. My cat is not allowed in my bedroom so I always have a baited catch-alive trap in there. Nothing ever ever in it for years until last winter. It must have come in when I I went outside for logs and left my front door open and rushed straight up the stairs. It was a lucky mouse to go into that trap. Had it gone into any other room, Boyfie would have caused it to be deceased. I let it go two miles away. I hope it will find another place to be a nuisance in. I stopped using snap traps in my house when I once caught a lactating female woodmouse.I killed her and her babies starved.. Ouch  -- http://www.helpforheroes.org.uk/shop/ |
