I'm sure you are aware of the temperatures starting to cool down. With that the mice will start invading your space. They will move into the garage, your parked vehicles, your storage shed, and even into your house. Now you can put out poisons to control them but be sure to use one that doesn't contain warfrin, they can build up and immunity to this poison and it will not work. What the rodents do is start producing more vitamin K, and this provides the immunity. Also with poisons you have to be careful around children and pets. Poisons are available in throw packs or bar bait. The throw pack in convenient to use indoors because you just pitch them behind things and the mice will eat through the pack and eat the poison. One feeding of the bait will be a lethal dose, mice will take about 3-4 pellets and rats about 10-15 pellets. Bar Baits are good to be used outside under sheds and out building because they are weather resistant. Also with the bars one feeding will be a lethal dose.
You can also use repellents to drive them out of an area. The best one is made by Bonide it contains spearmint oil and peppermint oil. The repellents fill the area with the scent of spearmint, which doesn't smell bad to us but the mice hate it. This product comes in a 4 packet box or a 12 packet box. One packet will treat a normal size room and should last for 30 days.
Get yourselves prepared, stock up know and beat them to the punch. Have your poison or repellent out and ready to work for you.
