Mice are like Hair Algae.....

They come because there is some source of food. Clean up the source and the mice will go elsewhere!

They also like warm places to hide when it turns cold outside.

Scott, me and jess gave up on the poison and the cat idea's already, we're down to using old fashion mouse traps. You guys realize how dangerous those things are? Geeze!?, what were they thinking? I've smacked my fingers at least ten times this week, lol.

i have had the same problem, at work we are having alot of mice, at the house we use the snap traps and they are all gone at the house, at work we are using the sticky traps and baiting them with M.R.E.'s peanut butter, and chocolate works great

I have the same problem, but its field mice getting in the garage. I generally use peanut butter also. Let it dry out before you put it on the trap, its harder for them to get it off. Its probably really small mice taking the bait.
