Thanks to all your replies before, count stands Greg 3 Mice 0 at the moment. Well Mice maybe have scored 'cos they've wrecked my daughters Moses basket!

Now I assume I keep baiting the traps until they are no longer activated.

BUT any idea how the blighters get into the loft, and how I stop them coming back?

cheers,

Greg

 

I've been baiting my traps for nearly a year
now and the little buggers are still camping in my loft insulation . I have seen those ultrasonic devices that are supposed to deter mice . Don't know if they work but right now I'm willing to try anything .

 

Seem to get in from outside - got any pipes/trellis/climbing plants (a favourite) that go up to the eaves??

Can also get in through ventilation bricks and up the cavities.
