I currently had caught 5 little mice in the humane trap. Only one I didn't realize was there until it had died.....How sad.

I realized the other night when I was laying on my air mattress in my upstairs bedroom, that the russling sound in the attic must be a whole bunch of mice in the attic & then come down through the wall & out the whole for the pipe to the kitchen sink, into the cupboard.

So I went to Lowes, & decided to purchase one of those Sonic high frequency things that says it has more than 2x the power output of standard units. I pulged it in & could hear some of the sound, so know it's working.

The instructions say that it doesn't go through cupboards, so i decided to place it right in the cupboard below my sink.....then I put the humane mouse trap with food in it right next to the sonic unit.

I came back this morning & all the dog food in the trap was gone.....the dang little mouse got in there & ate the dog food right net to the high frequence unit......must be one desparate little mouse.

I don't want to use poison.....as I wouldn't want the smell of all the dead mice in my house. But these brave guys are really getting me aggrivated. I emailed about what happened to the company that makes the sonar.....to see what they have to say about the situation. You can't get the sound much closer than within 5 inches. The high frequency should have been bouncing all over inside the cupboard.

I will find a solution.....just not sure right now what it will be. I can't find all the holes & plug them up as it's a huge house. Always some kind of challenge here.
