The gardener explained how to make a mouse trap from a bucket and a board 0 82

According to the specialist, it is enough to take an ordinary iron bucket, place bait inside — for example, a piece of cheese smeared with sunflower oil or a slice of sausage — and set a board next to it at an angle. The rodent will climb up it and fall into the bucket, reports NEWS.

In addition, Samoylova reminded that before the frost arrives, all seeds should be removed — either transported to the city or stored in a metal or dense plastic box so that mice cannot get in.

Earlier, the gardener recommended removing dry leaves from the area or leaving them only in the tree circles. She also advised inspecting the trees and removing the leaves that are twisted into cocoons, where pests often winter. The collected foliage, the expert suggested, should be placed in compost.
