Everyone knows that the mouse is good when it is in the cage and in one, a maximum of two copies. But when these rodents safely run around the house, not being afraid to even master's sneaker, it would be desirable to take action. Poison animals is not humane, and dangerous to health. And I also have a favorite cat. And I would not want him to find somewhere and ate a poisoned mouse. Therefore, to help me always comes good old mousetrap.
Today I'll show you how to quickly and easily make your own hands to trap mice. All three methods require minimal effort and cost. All of them are time-tested and personally to me, and do an excellent job with their task! I have my own farm, so believe me, so I know what a real "war" with mice firsthand.
Benefits of homemade traps
You can always buy a mousetrap in the store, you will say. But here are a few important arguments for the homemade trap:
- The main advantage: the minimum financial and physical costs. Traps that I will show, will be made from available materials.
- "Home" traps are completely safe for you and me, as we make them out of scrap will be "clean" materials: cardboard boxes, bottles, cans, etc.
- If suddenly a trap broke down, you can always make a new one.
How to make a trap with their hands
So, I finally move on to the fun part: to the process of manufacturing our mousetraps. Here I present three options, I personally tasted.
1 way: from banks
Described at this point the mechanism is very simple to make:
- Take a conventional glass jar volume of 0.5-1 liter.
- On the floor we place bait, cover its inverted jar. Bottom puts a coin, put on edge. Choose a diameter of more coin to rodent was able to get through.
The design is very unstable, so when you try to get to the goodies mouse, the coin will fall and the troublemaker will be caught.
Method 2: from a bottle
This method I would call humane, because we will not kill the animal. We need the plastic bottles of 1.5 - 2 liters.
follow these steps:
- We cut off the neck of the bottle in a narrow place.
- Next, place it on the edge of the table so that part of it dangled above the floor; we place the bait on the bottom.
- Fasten the bottle with a rope to the table; length of the rope must be such that the trap can be hung above the floor.
Done! Mouse sneaks to the bait, the center of gravity shifts from the bottle, and it will fall, hanging on a rope. Feel free to bring the animal out and let go away from home.
3 method: in buckets and bottles
Another very interesting and unusual way to catch mice, found me on the Internet. So, we need: a plastic bottle with a lid, a metal rod container (bucket).
- In the bottom of the bottle cap and make a hole of such diameter that bottle safely worn on the rod axis and can rotate.
- We fix the ends of the rod at the edges of the bucket to the bottle while calmly revolved.
- Bottle in the center coated with a bait bucket filled with water. About bucket build a ladder, or "ramp" to a mouse was able to get to the bait.
Here, actually, and everything a little pest gets on the edge of a bucket and trying to get to the bait. Bottle under his weight is rotated around its axis and your rodent falls into the bucket. The following video shows more clearly how to do this simple mousetrap.
So today, I told you how the most simple materials, you can build traps for mice.
BY THE WAY! I almost forgot! Not everyone wants to bother with home-made traps and catching mice, like, my best friend, neighbor and colleague in housekeeping, in combination. So he was 5 years old gets good and effective drugs from the mice's here. Quality and price are absolutely satisfied, and you can come in handy.
