Pest-Store Compact Mouse Box

Start with a trap if you want visible results and can check it daily. Check placement and fresh signs first. If trapping is unsuitable or a well-positioned setup has not resolved the problem, amateur poison labelled for the pest and location may be another option. Indoors, poisoned rodents may die beneath floors or behind walls and cause an unpleasant smell. Accessible traps make it easier to recover and remove them. Compare the benefits and day-to-day use of each method.

Mice are generally more curious about new objects, so they often approach traps more readily than rats. Placement still matters: put suitable traps along the routes where you find fresh signs, cover more than one spot when activity is spread out, and check them daily.

Base the number on where you find activity. Several well-placed traps or bait stations can cover different routes and feeding spots better than one point alone. Two traps inside one box cover one location; separate boxes let you cover separate locations. For poison, follow the bait label for the number and spacing of bait points and how much to put in each. Our setup guide explains where to start.

Match the trap to the size and internal layout of the box, allowing room for it to operate freely. Our box buying guide helps you compare the three layouts.

A bait station puts a protective barrier around the poison while allowing rats or mice to enter and feed. Its lockable lid helps prevent children, pets and wildlife from reaching the bait. When used with a compatible trap, the box also encloses the trap mechanism.

Place it along a route where you have seen rodent activity, somewhere you can reach for checks and where it will not be played with or disturbed. Secure the station as instructed and keep the lid locked between checks. Follow the fitting and use instructions for your chosen bait or trap.
