New Traps and Landord Action

I've purchased 4 additional traps (I now have 8 traps). I prefer the "Sentry" branded traps but the "Big Cheese" brand are effective. Including postage and packing these traps (pictured below) from Amazon.co.uk cost me 50p each. Read my first mouse blog for more information about my mouse problem.

Dead Smelly Mice

Traps are vastly superior to poison because poisoned mice can easily die in inaccessible areas (behind walls, pipework, or inside air-ducts) therefore decaying bodies of poisoned mice can smell very unpleasant. When traps are utilised it is always possible and very easy to dispose of the dead mice. The body of a mouse killed in a trap is always accessible.

Landlord Action

My landlord has informed me they will be installing poisoned bait in all Flats, although I am not hopeful the baiting will be a success because previous baiting was unsuccessful. My landlord's recent desire to take action could be a response to this blog or it could be coincidental. I have not been given a date regarding the proposed baiting but via email my landlord stated they are aware of the problem and have set up a contract with Coventry Council Pest Control to bait the building.

I shall continue with my mouse-blogging and hopefully the issue will soon be resolved. If I post no additional updates you can assume I've caught no mice and the situation is resolved.
