I have trapped and carried out 2 mice already. I suspect that there are more. How can I get rid of them and keep them from coming back? Will moth balls work? Thanks for any suggestions!

Traps. What is attracting them? Do you keep any birdseed or anything in there? Thats how we got some in our shed.

Get a cat. They'll take care of your mice problem if you keep it in the shed at night. You should be able to get one from the humane society for a nice price. Cats also make good pets and are relatively maintenance free.

Definately a cat or two. This is a very natural combination...mice & a barnyard cat...everyone has the right instinct to make this effective & symbiotic.

If you use mouse traps, be certain that you use the snapping ones. They look cruel, but actually, they are the most humane. It kills the mouse instantly. A mouse stuck in a glue mouse trap dies a slow painful death.
Mouse poison causes the mouse to to die from the inside out. They start throwing up their insides. It`s a horrible thing to do and I think this "poison" should be illegal.

D-Con makes a good bait bar that once they eat on it they die. to keep others from coming use moth balls or spray the out side on a regular basis with ammonia.
