I have had a MAJOR rodent infestation in my garage for years, and just recently my neighbor noticed she had them INSIDE the house, getting into pet food. Well she placed all her goods into rubbermaid bins, and I replaced 2×4's, filled voids, used caulking in the garage. I placed 12 bait stations between the 2 houses. EVERY day I am finding bright green poop, the same color of the contac blocks...they are living long enough to digest the product and poop it all over my garage...at first, I baited the whole garage with the blocks and TONS of green poop. I have only found 2 or 3 dead mice in the garden. They appeared to stop getting into the neighbors house, but I cant seem to keep them out of my garage. I have used glue boards, caught a few, then I actually had a mouse CHEW up half of an entire glue board!! I was awestruck! Do you have any advice on how to truly clean out these things?? I did set up an electronic mouse zapper with peanut butter as bait..
While we typically tell folks not to bait indoors, it sounds like you will need to continue to do so. Contrac All-Weather Blox Rodenticide is a great bait, but you may need something that has a faster knockdown. We would recommend Fastrac to wipe out the current population. Fastrac Blox offers a lethal dose of active ingredient bromethalin in a single feeding, with the first dead rodents appearing in one or two days after bait consumption. Please also take the time to read over our mouse guide to learn more.
