Hi Everyone & your furkids! I had a lot of problems with mice in the past. I "taught" a 4-yr-old ferret how to catch them, but once I heard the mouse scream I never wanted to do it again. There is a great "no-kill" trap that you can get from a farm supply company. Search for it, as I don't remember the name of the company because I borrowed it from a friend. I caught about 10 mice (my friend caught even more until he got a cat), and we would "relocate" them. After a while, they stopped coming. Maybe there is some way they communicate that others who went in that apartment never came back. Good luck to anyone with this problem. I know how difficult it is to deal with, especially if your ferret takes pieces of food and hides them in places we can't easily clean--just perfect for the mice, who seem to love ferret food.
