“Did someone say mice?”
-Jordy

I feel like traps are the way to go. I used to use cream cheese with a dab of blackies Fur King and it really lured them in. I always wrapped a few strands of my hair or dental floss around the bait to help their teeth get stuck and trigger the trap.
My brother had a rat problem and I used the same at his place

Lol..., I tried that and they made a nest of it.

Mark, I've tried every remedy out there.., nothing has worked other then outright killing them with traps.
The 5 gallon bucket method does work great for multiples.

I have been very happy with it and it isn't an offensive odor indoors like moth balls that I never found to work anyway. I have tried dryer sheets, moth balls, and other witchcraft but none have worked for me other than the Grandpa Gus stuff.

Ain't no " scent" gonna detour a mouse.
Gramps Guss made a few million$$.

Fresh Cab rodent repellant packets. Local small engine guy told me about it and said it’s by far the best thing he’s found to keep them out. Local Bomgaars regularly sells out of it whenever it goes on sale.

dryer sheets will work.

Buy these bait blocks in a bucket, leave the lid on, drill two 1" holes at the base / bottom of the bucket, place it along a wall in the garage, and forget about it.

When I started doing this I stopped having mice problems.

(I had to clean up all my grass seed and etc that they were getting into too.)
