Mouse snaring

Hello I was just wondering if anyone out there has tried mouse snaring. I have done it and it is as possible as snaring any animal and just as satisfying too.

That's cool.

Our son snared Chipmunks years ago at our place, when he was on leave from Military. He used a lightweight Weasel snare.

Someone posted on here a while back about a 400 year old Mouse trap.
I made a few and they work great.

So I sorta snared some Mice...

My son has, used dental floss

That one Is nice for catching multiple mice and that is almost like power snaring mice. In a way

I'm just using 12 pound mono fishing line and a very small fishing swivel I tie a couple of knots on the back side so I can staple to a piece of wood to fasten the snare. Cheapest snares ever made(:

Neat

how big of a loop do you use and how high off the ground?

About a 3/4 in loop but I just measure the loop the size of my thumb. and not very high off the ground at all quarter inch or so, Although the mice I've been catching are really small.

Need to try this sometime to kill time.

Haha yeah it's fun. Thought I was wasting my time until I was successful.

Just caught another one a few minutes ago

Need to find a way to put a tiny little kill spring on it....maybe the spring out of a ball point pen?

Kill Spring, I want to know what do you use for an ant stop and a B.A.D.?

that's cool ive been trying to catch enough to stock my pen! Are all of them alive so far? I only need 30 to get it up and operating! My pens more like a mouse condo 2'x4'x4' and4 levels with a full nursery

What in the world are you trying to keep 30 mice for?

Mouse urine !!
Its way better than fox, bobcat or coyote urine at sets.

Mouse urine is some stinky stuff. I bet whatever smelled it near a set would have to check it out. Take some mouse bedding that has been urinated on and bag it up haha or just throw whole mouse down the hole

Cool!

Raise them and sell them. Or just use as bait when ever I need it.

Ttt

Nice neck snare!

I’ve been using mouse bedding in holes and under chaff sets . It works very well.

Great post. I have done this on rats

Snare them like squirrells-on a running pole.Lethal when they drop off.
All animals can be snared.

Could you please show a picture?

Every conceivable mousetrap dating back a thousand years. Very addicting site for trappers.

A single strand of 7 X 7 snare cable will also work and once the curl is straightened out, can be loaded.
I've used it and once also snared a least weasel using it
