When it came to my coop, the only thing I was able to live with was rat-proofing - that way I didn't have to hurt anybody. I saw what happened when my neighbors put out poison - cute little mice dead - 2 were lying there dead in a hugging position. They held onto each other at the end. Made me...

Okay, I feel horrible, like a vicious murderer..that plaster/sugar has been under my shed since the other day...so I figured maybe they were eating it..not sure if that's what happened to the CUTE!!! but dead very small mouse I found floating in my pond just then. White undersides andtail and...

DRAT!!!! DARN!!!! DANG IT!!!! No dead mice tonight!!!!!! I hope they are all petrified plaster of paris sculptures under my shed...tomorrow I'm gettin a flashlight and lookin under that shed!!!! I hope it is a pure rat cemetary!!!!

LOL!!! Love the cat!!! I have an outside cat but he is afraid of the dog in the backyard so the front yard is probably mouse free but no the back...and I did not see one mouse/rat on it's back with legs in the air in my backyard!!! Wonder how long that stuff takes to work? There was ALOT missing...

Too dark here yet but in about an hour I am hoping to go out and find some rat rocks in my yard!!!!

Thanks LCRT! I will print that out and save a couple cans, I already have a bucket in mind.....that is IF they aren't all dead as I hope tomorrow from the plaster/sugar treat...and just so they wouldn't have to wait too long for it get hard...I left them a bowl of water under the shed too...

mice!!! run for the hills!!!!

I bookmarked that site April, that may be a good option. Thank you for all that info. ...mice/rats must sure be a common problem. The water thing only made a mess..there are too many tunnels and too far from the shed to the coop for that to work..that would have been cool though..my old lab...

Now that I can def. try!!! I will do that today, thanks for the idea! .....hope none of them have life jackets!!!

What is that called April? I could shove it under the shed and only the rats could get to it. My dogs can't get under there and my chickens wouldn't have opportunity. I would wonder what would happen if a poisoned mouse got into the coop before it died and a chicken ate it? Course I may not...

I am unfortunately, having the exact same problem lately. I have mouse tunnels in several places around my coop and inside the edges. I know they must be small because I have a foot of chicken wire on the ground around my pen and they get through that. I think they live under my shed, at...
