You can rent my cat,great mouser. Overnight and the problem is gone.
He will do a perimeter search of your house/appt and then lay in wait at the obvious entrance.
I heard recently that mice are virtually immune to most of the poisons on the market these days.Before I got my cat we had a mouse family and they ate the poison then tore into a pack of antacids.
Smart little buggars.
One panicky morning after one bit my better half, I trapped two of them in a sealed bedroom,mattress against the door,drawers pulled out and stacked up.Armed only with a waste basket,I got them out in the open and captured a mom and her little one.
Probably took 2 years off my life.
Use a moist paper towel and gloves to clean up there droppings maybe even wear a mask.
