    into inside and outside and I never get any mice in it,plus

    Nice I love it. I’ll give it a try. I’ve had success blocking ant trails with Bounce dryer sheets as well.

    When trapping, everyone says to use peanut butter… WRONG!

    The very best bait is actually MILK CHOCOLATE!!! An exterminator friend told me of this, so I put it to the test. Using standard Victor mousetraps (sorry, they’re gross to handle but IMO nobody yet has built a better mousetrap) I would arrange them differently along the same wall with different baits and the chocolate baited ones ALWAYS got hit first!
    I take the chocolate and melt it in a Pyrex custard cup in the microwave a few seconds. Then I unsnap the paddle from the trap and dip the leading edge in the chocolate then let it cool before putting it back together and setting the trap. I even dip all of them from the package and just store the paddles in a baggie in the fridge or freezer until needed.
    I’m sure you will find this more reliable than peanut butter… Happy trails!
