There's nothing humane about a sticky trap.

    I don't like killing.

    Best way to keep mice away is to remove the incentive. Surely? Trying to get flatmates to keep things in cupboards... Almost working.

    Good thing I'm going into the profession I am. I'd hate for a killer to do so.


    Glue traps work really good. Just sprinkle them with some nice nuts and biscuit bits (technically I would say cookie), and the little critters are stuck and dead. They're far more effective than snap traps. You might also catch a few six legged pests as well.

    My experience with mice and cupboards, usually involves me finding the mice in them.
