I thought the Title said "Mouse Erection".  I came in to see what they were building now.

I thought is was a new brand of Vermouth. I like that with a cherry in my Bourbon. AKA Manhatten.

@JCM  guy next door to me , is a real  winner , house is just about falling down , would not surprise me in the least , if it were  not overrun with mice , etc . his father always kept it looking well kept , town does not even bother to road trim it , that tells you the stage of total neglect .  pete

I googled Vamoose and of course Amazon has it for sale.  Four pouches for about sixty dollars and is mainly consists of:  "featuring a blend of natural ingredients like cinnamon oil, citronella oil, and thyme oil," I pertinere believe a fellow could put those ingredients in cake frosting!  For me, hunting mice is about like chasing moles.  I like traps--that way I know I got the little rascals.

Yep... some guys run their horse exhaust in the ground to kill moles. 

Not for me I wanna see em dead. For an improper above ground burial.

I bought 2 of those 5gal bucket toppers to catch/drown mice.  Worked ok in the shed which is fairly tightly built.  No good in the barn.  Possums/wood chucks who know what else go after the bait and break it...

I've gone "Green". We have quite a few stray cats in the neighborhood & they like to hang out in my carport. I haven't caught any mice in the traps inside the garage all winter.

These work pretty good for keeping the larger critters away from your mouse bait.

I still like my old Victors for mice control.

 

 

 

 

 

And  a conibear for everything bigger than a mouse.

 Building? I thought of something completely different.

Out of the six I have out at spike camp three were empty. No mice in any machines.

Be aware that if the house is removed, the current residents will certainly seek nearby shelter!
