Pest proofing my garage / workshop

[Hornet99]

Thanks. TBH trapping works for me but the novelty is wearing off. I'm also a beekeeper and mice constantly pee as the go along and mouse pee on bee eqpt renders it useless the bee's wont go near it so they've got to go.

I would go for several of these, because I have mice in the house and in the garage, and living out in the country, they little pests just keep coming. And we are having a 'mouse year, so no mercy. Just have a look at Shawn's video here: I Discovered The Greatest Mouse Trap Ever Invented! Amazing New Design. | Mousetrap Monday with Shawn Woods
With this it should be possible to eradicate all the mice around you. I use peanut butter mixed with honey for bait, and that works a charm!

I get mice in my garage. I have, or had, two traps: one a 90 degree 'traditional. the other some plastic easy set clamshell thing. The other day I saw that the plastic one had sprung, but nothing in it and it was 8 feet away from where is was set. The traditional one was nowhere to be seen. I still haven't found it. I did find a mouse's head outside the garage door, and signs of a scuffle, so I guess something had taken it complete with trap. A crow perhaps.

I've lost two traps thus far in the last month. Snr Mngt says rats but there's no evidence of them in the garage so doubtful.

Cats are a marmite thing. You either love them or hate them!

Cats are harder to spread on your toast, though.
