Each year around the first of September the mice families that have been feeding and growing on the sunflower and other seeds which have fallen from the bird feeders in the neighborhood begin finding ways of entering the house, and a humane way of trapping and relocation becomes necessary.
This year I'm trying a new homemade mousetrap, the advantage over the metal box traps is the the ability to see immediately if a mouse has been caught. And using materials found in most kitchens, or if not, inexpenseively purchased at the grocery, this trap may be quickly fabracated.
This easily built AND better mousetrap instructions may be found at Steve Smiths Humane Mousetrap site.
Or, if you want to send 10 bucks PETAS way, they have a mouse trap in their catalogue.
