I live in a old building, in the city. My apartment is an old attic and I keep it very very clean. Every now and then I will find a dead mouse. There have been three since I moved in (in over a year). I know this is not a lot for my type of building and city life, but it still bothers me. I can't use poisons, glue traps, or snap traps becuase I have two cats and a chihuahua that will get hurt by any of them. I don't know how the mice are dying, maybe my cats are killing them but there is never any blood or bite marks, so if they are killing the mice it's by playing with them - not hunting. My cats are indoor only, the mice are not being brought in from outside. I have already tried to block holes with steel wool, but my playful kittes thought they were toys as yanked those out as well. I can never find out exactly where the mice are coming from but with this being an old attic my apartment has lots of funky corners and spaces. How can I keep mice out without harming my pets?
