Try gule traps in high rodent activity areas, most effectively in places where food sources are present. The glue traps might work better what ever your currently using.
As said before in the garden fine sheds, greenhouse no no I just had 2 in my loft keep us awake all night so loud I thought they were squirrels so got a squirrel trap only to find they were mice caught 2 had no more for 2 weeks know so guess for the time I was lucky before they breed
mice are nice long as they don't come inside,if they do they will chew wiring ,eat your food ,leave mustie smell and spread disease.In the garden they will eat your peas and beans or sun flower seeds that are left in your greenhouse or shed.As toT rapping them LIVE you will have to go along way to deter them coming back and there is always more.A cat will keep numbers down and keeping seed and bird food away from the house.
The saga of moce in my house goes on. The cats brought in yet another one and then let it go. There was i on the floor trying to help catch it and then it disappeared. I stood up and then felt something warm moving inside my jeans. The mouse had gone up my trouser leg. Dont normally scream but i did then, the mouse even had time to do a pooh up there. Not something i wish to repeat
i think field mice are great i watch them climbing up to the bird table taking the seed and running under the shed with it and my cat just sits there watching them the same with the squirrels i thought cats would at least chase them but oh no they get within a foot of him and he does nothing

Glue traps have a bad press

Glue traps are incredibly cruel. I would rather have mice in the house than use a glue trap.
