bwfc1965 Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Hope this is the correct forum.I have been renovating a stone house in rural Brittany for four years now. The last couple of years I have noticed lots of mice droppings and also the mice have started destroying the furniture.I have laid traps and poison and also have a couple of plug in repellents.Neither seem to be solving the problem.They seem to live in the walls and the ceilings (newly laid plasterboard with insulation) I can hear them at night and have seen a couple during the day.I am desperate now as my wife and daughter are coming over next month for the first time in a couple of years and they won't sleep if the mice are still there.Can anyone recommend a good plug in repellent or any other deterrents? ThanksSteve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeanS Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Considering we live opposite a farm, we get very few mice. We use just old standard traps -last bought from Bricomarche 2 for 1.70euros, bait them with chocolate spread and hey presto - dead mice.Also, we used to have a lot of farm cats about which helped keep them down.
