MOUSE OUT^™ de Wilson^®

The trap has to be baited and set, and placed in along walls where you suspect activity. The trap attracts the mouse, and as it attempts to feed on the bait, it trips the spring that kills it.

There are no poisons or chemicals. However, the spring loaded mechanism can hurt your fingers, so care must be taken once it is set. A mouse trap isn’t likely to seriously injure you, but it could leave you with a sore finger or two if you’re not careful.

Place traps in areas where your pets don’t spend time. The scent of pets tends to deter mice anyway. The traps will be more useful where there is no scent. If accidentally tripped by pets, mouse traps could hurt them, though they aren’t likely to cause life-threatening injuries.

Keep mouse traps out of rooms occupied by young children. If you find mice in an area occupied by a young child, work to surround the perimeter with traps instead.

Always use quality bait that mice like. Peanut butter is an ideal option since it sticks to the bait holder, doesn’t fall off, and mice have to climb over the trap to get to it. Check your traps regularly. Once tripped,dead mice need to be cleared. The trap needs to be reset and put back in place and used (or place a new one) until you're sure that there are no more mice in your house.

Always put traps in areas where there is a lot of activity. If you see mouse droppings, this is a sign that traps should be placed in that room. Place traps along the walls and edges of your room. Mice aren’t likely to go through the centre of the room unless they are being chased. Instead, they tend to scurry along the edges of your room. Put traps along the walls near entry points like doors and windows.

Move your traps to different areas if nothing has been caught within a few days of putting them in place. Sometimes you have to experiment with placement to figure out what will work inside and outside your home. Stick with the same type of bait once you find something that works. This is essential to trapping as many mice as possible and ridding your home of an infestation quickly. Refresh bait every week if it does not lure mice.

Mouse traps can also be used as a preventative option, in areas by your garage, basement or attic year-round so you don’t end up with an infestation. These traps’ bait only needs to be refreshed monthly. Use mouse traps around the edges of your home and entry points to keep mice out.

Whenever you see mouse droppings, you know that you have an unwanted visitor. Mice reproduce quickly. You can be almost certain there are more than one. To control mice, you need more than one or two mouse traps to eliminate the problem quickly. The most effective strategy is to place one mouse trap every 2 to 3 feet along the wall where you've seen signs of activity.

Although one mouse is not considered an infestation, you need to consider that a single female can have 5-10 litters a year, with 6-8 babies each time. A newborn female mouse can start breeding at 6 weeks of age.It is important to nip the problem in the bud before it escalates!
