    Mouse Plague!! HELP

    I learned a lot on this one. I like the shoe box and glue trap one. I have a ledge halfway up the coop that my ladies can't get to and I set a regular trap there with a little peanut butter. Works pretty good. Does anyone have a sparrow in the coop problem?

    WOW! Thank you for the welcome banner! Made me smile I wanted something that I knew wouldn't hurt chicks, I like what I have read about DE so far! Do you just spread that on the coop floor AND on the chickens?
