Sharing the experience of summer resident and agronomist Alexander Khorobrovets:
- Scatter blackroot or burdock seeds along mouse trails: they get stuck in their fur and cause stress in rodents, prompting them to leave your home. The smell of anise will also repel mice — just spray their burrows with a solution of ammonia and anise.
You can make a bait: mix one part sugar with one part cement and two parts flour, and add a few drops of vegetable oil to attract mice. If such mice are caught by cats, they will survive, unlike those poisoned with toxins.
Using zoocoumarin for poisoning is ineffective, as it causes severe intestinal pain, and rodents alert their peers to danger. New products like Klerat, Storm, and Zerosin kill mice only a few days after ingestion, so they do not associate them with danger and do not warn others of potential threats.
Poisoned animals pose a danger to birds and cats.
