Yeah, I don't go to that bar anymore.

LOL! My brother and I was remodeling a house that was a mouse hotel. We had bb guns and who ever got the most kills got a 12 pac. Nobody ever lost because you get to drink half anyways.

Just build a 5 gallon bucket trap. It works.

Dude, I pulled out an old crosman 1077. 12 shots of 3-d printed (sonic) pellets. Laser. 4-19 zoom scope with red and green illumination. No idea exactly how fast 3-d printed pellets go since I've never chrono'd them, but they DO give a sonic crack and while not much on penetration make one HELL of a surface mess of a block of clay.

1st thing out of the wife's mouth......you aint shooting that in the house.

HUH ??????

Shootin it outside dont do me any good, the meeskers are in here, woman. Ya cant be THAT dumb !!!!......and that's how my night on the couch started.

We have never had a mouse problem but we have always had a cat or 2..OUTSIDE cats, even when the temps dropped down into single digits.
One of the keys is never have food available inside for rodents. No open food bags, no food bowls left around, nonthing that will encourage them to come in and take up housekeeping to begin with.

I did have rat problems in the shop at one time for a short period of time when I kept a lot of cow feed in there but I got rid of them with .22 ratshot and by leaving the door open so the cats could hunt in there at night. Pure carnage.

Its the pee, they are attracted to the pee of the mice that came before. Fox pee will help, we used it in our yard and it worked well.

5 gallon bucket trap gets my vote.
