the best mouse bait?

[stelvis]

i have mice in my flat and i bought some 'freindly' traps (i don't want to kill them) but they are sooo not going for cheese!! anyone know what they love? thanks!

[B00]

I had pet mice for years (stop shuddering, they were lovely!) and I obviously tried cheese with them as a treat. They wouldn't touch the stuff- they did however go nuts over chocolate. Maybe that's worth a try?

I agree with Boo, they love chocolate and when I had a mouse in the house, I was advised to put some chocolate in the trap.

[Plocket]

Yep - chocolate!

Boo sweetie

I have'nt seen you on AB for ages ( been asking too) or am I not looking properly. Always like to read your comments, hope your well. I had pet mice and they loved chocolate and ginger biccies.

This is about the best Humane trap around, I think anyway, and yes, Chocolate, the milk variety.

When we had mice (as in vermin, not pet) in our old kitchen, we used chocolate (I was advised that they weren't all that keen on cheese!) and also fruit pastilles and wine gums. They love those! Quite a sweet tooth-which they demonstrated when they gnawed through all my sweets and biccies before we discovered we had "guests"!

Good luck, Lisa x

I use a slice from a Mars bar. It sticks on the spike of the trap more easily than chocolate.

wow thanks everyone! this is my first time on answerbank and it's great! i'll try chocolate! fingers crossed...

[Lonnie]

In that case, a warm welcome stelvis, you'll find a few nutters, but in general, they're a great bunch on here.
