counturchickens Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Sorry, another rat post! We have had a rodent visitor, shot one with an air rifle, then have seen more. We bought a cage trap, the intention being to trap them then do the deed. We think we have set it properly, the bait has been taken and the trap sprung but no creature inside. Could it be a mouse who has then escaped, or has anyone else had this problem? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 We did. The husband tinkered with it & set it to a hair trigger......we have since caught 5 rats & a squirrel (who we apologised to & freed) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatieB Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 DH the rat catcher says with great conviction it was a mouse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
