The Bait Box

The mouse was still in the house. At one point, it had managed to scurry upstairs and pop out underneath my wardrobe. I had to wonder whether it was brave enough to make the venture upstairs or did it go through the walls? We also noticed that something had been burying itself underneath the shed. I stuck a hosepipe underneath that for a while but nothing came out. We needed to take further action, so we bought a pre-loaded bait box. This encourages the mouse to have a wander inside the box and take a nibble of the poisoned bait. Over the next few days we noticed a trail of crumbs outside the box but then there was nothing, and there were no sightings either. There’s also a lack of any odd smells, so hopefully the little bugger’s crawled off to die outside and the nest has been evacuated; wherever it might be.
