February 13, 2013 8:29 pm at 8:29 pm #994256popa_bar_abbaParticipantSo last night, the door to our room was accidentally left open, and a mouse got in. And I cannot sleep if there is a mouse in the room.
It ate up all the spray foam that I sprayed in its holes last year. And is still stalking my room. I put out a snap trap, but it didn’t step on it. So I put out poison this morning.
If it doesn’t work, I’ll send boro park mensch after it with his tow truck.

You probably only need one truck.
(I didn’t want to be a kafui tov for the “Ivor’s” correction.)

February 14, 2013 2:06 am at 2:06 am #994263Torah613TorahParticipantThe Purple: I heard scurrying and nibbling. So I stamped my foot hard. Immediately, the scurrying and nibbling stopped. That’s the sound of a mouse.
I would move to a hotel if I were you. There are rats on park benches. At least mice are clean.

February 14, 2013 3:27 am at 3:27 am #994265yehudayonaParticipantPurple, several years ago my daughter (probably in middle school at the time) had a mouse in her classroom. Most of the girls (and the teacher) were acting like you, but my kid grabbed the mouse by the tail, presumably while the mouse was traumatized by all the screaming. She then took it out and asked the principal what she should do with it. She said to put it in the trash in the teacher’s room. So she did.

February 14, 2013 1:13 pm at 1:13 pm #994272AshParticipantThe best traps are the sticky pads as they’re not dangerous (though a pain to remove if it gets stuck to something or someone). Find a few ground-level places that’s not accessible to humans (or box it in) like under your bed, under kitchen units and wait. Probably more effective if you include some food that mice like but don’t forget pesach is coming.
February 14, 2013 2:10 pm at 2:10 pm #994273thehockMemberThe only real way to get rid of mice is to mouse-proof by blocking the holes through which they enter. You can kill a mouse or twenty, but if there is access, chances are that they’ll come back. You don’t want to keep killing mice; you want to find their path and block them out. If you are up one night at the usual time (and they do tend to have patterns of times they come and paths they follow), try to see if you can find the point of entry. Steel wool is effective for blocking. And you really don’t want them in your kitchen – nothing like mouse droppings in the pantry near your breakfast cereal to make you lose your appetite.
The problem with poison is if the mouse dies in the wall after ingesting the poison, that gets pretty smelly. For this particular mouse, though, if you know that the mouse passes through your bedroom door, couldn’t you just line the threshold with sticky traps?

Ah you went to a school of fish.
February 14, 2013 4:25 pm at 4:25 pm #994275AshParticipantAh yes, should have said. You need to cover all air bricks, vents and holes that are within a metre (or perhaps more) of the ground with a wire mesh with holes that are too small for a mouse to get through. They can wriggle through the tiniest of gaps and chew around to make the hole bigger. Pest control companies are experts at this but if you DIY, make sure it’s a strong wire mesh with fairly small holes (perhaps max 1x1cm).

December 16, 2013 4:11 am at 4:11 am #994281Little FroggieMemberAnd now it’s infested with a certain mod posting and reviving all the old ones about infestation.
December 16, 2013 10:07 pm at 10:07 pm #994282MDGParticipantSprinkle cayenne pepper around. Mice can’t stand it.
Just be careful if you have kids.
