To combat mice, it is not necessary to acquire mousetraps with spring mechanisms. You can use a simple secret trap that will do its job perfectly.
Moreover, such a mousetrap is quite safe for pets - in particular, cats, as well as yard dogs, who often like to walk around at night. Making such a trap is very simple.
And it will last a long time, because, in fact, there’s simply nothing to break into it. In this case, to make a mousetrap, you will need a glass bottle with a wide neck and a lid with a wire frame.
Mousetrap design features
The wire "frame" on the outside has a wide hole, and on the other hand - narrowed. Thus, the secret lies precisely in the design of the frame. The mouse can fall into the trap, but it will not work out.
The lid with a wire "frame" is screwed onto a glass container, which, in turn, is mounted on a wooden stand (you can also use a plywood board).
On the sides of the bottle is fixed with two screws. To the stand you need to attach a wooden rail, on which the mouse can rise to the "destination".
As a bait inside the jar, you can sprinkle seeds or another mouse treat: wheat, barley, oats, slices of vegetables and fruits.
