Question

How can I humanely and effectively get rid of a rat or mouse in my home?

Answer 1

the best way I found is mouse traps ( the snapping kind ) the thing is , do you want to poison a mouse and have it die in your walls, specially since if there is one moue, you can guarantee that there are many more living behind the walls and in crawl spaces. mice are known to carry disease and carry fleas which will jump on to any other pets you may have when they die, not to mention the smell seems to last for years when there is a dead mouse behind your walls.

Answer 2

well eat it if you look that that avatar you made!

Answer 3

Answer 4

get a rat or mouse trap ande put peanut butter on it, they love it.. they also have rat and mice poison in almost any store and they also have sticky pads that will catch them alive.

Answer 5

Glue traps are the best method to trap rats and mice. I found detailed information at http://pests.in

Answer 6

Answer 7

The smell of your bait can attract or repel the mouse. I Will advice you to get a trap and put a good bait for the mouse. Bait like fish or something you know that they eat much. it can get them to you.

Answer 8

Following up on a previous answer, another, somewhat more humain way is to get some dry ice and set it in the dinner. . . . errr, rodent's enclosure.. As the dry ice melts, the rodent will fall asleep and die from lack of 02.. . And yes, it is better to feed reptiles dead food as they can be injured trying to eat live rodents/rabbits. In the wild such prey can run and the sanke/reptile has to strike and kill quick and stealthly. In an enclosure said food has nowhere to go and will therefor fight back.

Answer 9

You don't have to kill it just find a healthy looking cat that would best fit you home but you might want to go to a pet shop and get a kitten!

Answer 10

You put this under reptiles...are you wondering how to kill them to feed a snake?? If so, NEVER ever use chemicals to kill it and then feed it to your reptile - you could poison your pet. There is a way to break the mouse's back or stun it to make feeding your snake safer...you should have your pet store employee/owner show you.
