Mouse trap: an excellent trap for trapping the gray family
As you know, mice live in flocks or, if you like, in families. This makes it easier to find warm places for wintering and, of course, food. And in order to completely get rid of mice for one season, you need to overfill the whole family - usually 8-10 individuals.
Someone uses poison or sticky traps for this. But it's much smarter and a little more humane (if it's important to someone) to use the trap from this video:
The difference between this video is that here the author did not stupidly show the process of making a trap, but actually showed the result.
I respect this approach!
For me, only one thing remained a mystery: what was used as a rotating platform for mice?
I think this part can be easily replaced with a tea towel or foil sleeve. There are such rolls in every home, and if you cover them with foil and smear with sunflower oil, the fall will be ideal.
At first, the oil slides, and the film will prevent rodents from clinging to the cardboard with claws;
Secondly, sunflower oil smells very fragrant and attracts rodents even from the most distant shelters.
If you don’t want to be smart with a roll of foil or something else, you can buy a ready-made "TIPPER" at Juma. It works well too, judging by the reviews. And since it is made of plastic, it will not be demolished, you can spend money.
I hope the method shown in the video was helpful. Good luck!
And let the gray ones for a kilometer do not fit your house or summer cottage! Until!
