Re: Mice or rats under the house
When I said bait traps I mean bait stations, those you can buy from DIY or hardware shops, think I got ours from Wilkinsons. Then the buggers run off somewhere for a drink and then expire, hopefully not on your property. You won't see any dead rats. Proper old fashioned traps for the mice.

Re: Mice or rats under the house
We've had rats a couple of times, each occurrence was resolved with covered baited traps on or very near to their runs. Keep them topped up.
Mice can be sorted out with traps.
As has been suggested, you should also get or borrow a Jack Russell.

I made an opinion re-fight so I'll follow that up. McGregor looked like an amateur (which to be fair he is) against a 40 year old with glass hands who didn't have a KO in him. Mayweather checked him out, tired him out then put him out. However, McGregor did last last longer than I expected which is ...
