How can i get rid of mice in my flat?

It has to be safe because im 6 and a half months pregnant





The landlord doesnt seem to be too bothered





We cant have a cat - its in the lease agreement





Everyday there seems to be more n more.. 2 days ago we caught one in a sticky trap this morning there was one on the bedroom door, one on the cupboard and another one on the dinner table





We spring cleaned over the weekend - taking out everything cleaning n replacing so dirt isnt an issue





Please help





Many thanks!How can i get rid of mice in my flat?
Sticky pads every corner until they are gone.





don't resort to poison, unless you want the rotting thing under the boards stinking up the place.





If you wage a full scale war on them they will stop coming.





Plus look for small openings where they may be getting in. Fill all the wholes with that aerosol can of expanding foam. A tiny shot of that stuff fills it in really fast and cheap.





Look around outside, there may be a large nest, hatching out more mice every day. So turn things over out side and put some poison out there. Clean up all around the property.





If all of this doesn't work. Call the health department and see what more they can do to help you. You certainly want this over before the baby gets here.

A. When you clean do it with Bleach and water or Vinegar and Water.





B. Buy a cat.
i think if you will go on with trap and specially poisned food for mice then you will get rid of them imediatley......good luck...please vote my answer the best...
I found that a regular mouse trap (purchased at a local hardware store) is the best and most efficient method. They are very cheap to buy.





The best bait is chocolate (something caramel based), they seem to love this. I caught 6 mice in 4 days using this method, and don't see to have been bothered by the little critters again.





Best of luck.
use rat silent killer biscuits and cakes....its available in the market
take all of your food and put it into plastic containers... seal or refrigerate everything... then set traps... set traps behind your stove, refrigerator and in rooms that you don't think they are at... go to the dollar store and buy the big pack... set them with peanut butter... if you don't want to touch them use rubber gloves or just throw the trap away... decon works OK but you have to put out some water.. the water swells in the stomach then they die.. but I would rather have it on a trap then die ing in the wall or behind something..... call the health inspector and they will make the landlord get rid of the mice... call from another persons phone and say this person has rats, mice etc.. and the people there are afraid of eviction... please help.. and they will send someone out.. especially if your expecting... also say kids are getting bit by the rats... etc..





good luck
Just keep doing what you are already doing -- use glue traps or conventional ones if you can handle a little gore. Buy more of those. You'll gradually kill off more mice than comes in.





I would also check the apartment for holes around the molding, corners, hard to reach places etc. If you can plug those, you'll cut most access routes, although don't be susprised if they try to come through the window (happened in my apartment once). Good luck.
The safest and easiest way would be to use more sticky traps...
You could get an Huron like the pet in the movie ';Along came Polly';


They are very effective, they don't make a noise or scratch wall papers or furniture and are easy to feed.
You can buy an ultrasonic mouse repellant for around $20 US. Try Walmart.
try a .22, guaranteed your landlord will take an interest after that
Decon will work the best for a mouse problem.
try d-con for mice.
Try the traps with the spring that snap.Maybe have a cat come over for a few hours and have the cat urinate outside the smell might scare them.
set up traps...also there's this type of poison you can get..im not sure if it works for rats but its fantastic for roaches..how it works is, the pest eats it and goes back to its burrow/ nest, it dies, the rest eats it body and also dies..good luck
