| A lovely snake can solve that problem!  I used to raise mice and rats, so know a bit about their habits.
I had mice and used a humane (trapping) method to get rid of them using some chocolate to entice them. Also, a few tips: keep all foodstuff in containers and anywhere they can nest should be cleared out (piles of clothing, cleaning clothes, etc). If you have pets, do not leave their food around once they are done. Mice are looking for a comfy place that is warm with plenty of food. They adore chocolate and dog food because it is high in fat content. | | | | Status: Offline
