Hey look here at the outdoor boys YouTube channel and today we're exterminating mice all right it is Thanksgiving Day I'm here with my boy Nathan Tommy my nephew Calvin and my niece Lucy here and it is Thanksgiving week unfortunately we had a mouse incident.
Yep I was cooking Thanksgiving dinner and one of our little grand friends ran right under my feet rodents of unusual size I don't think they exist never had that happen before it's not happening again visually at night we have been hearing scurrying up in the crawl space above the garage so we got a problem it.
Just recently got cold you'll see this happen a lot and each year we have a problem with mice in the garage right when it gets cold all those mice and then breathing out in the woods happily all summer long suddenly realize it sucks to be outside in the wintertime and so they come into our home and they can cause a lot of.
Problems first off the number one carrier of Lyme disease is mice and squirrels not deer so when you get Lyme disease from ticks it's usually because the ticks were biting on mice and squirrels hunt a virus and other diseases can come from they also to up the house and if they chew up the electrical wiring you can.
Start a fire and it's just really gross and creeps my wife out which is the number one reason why we are going to be exterminating you feel ways to clean your toes oh geez they're everywhere so we went down to Walmart and we bought all these traps for like twenty eight of these little plastic wooden mouse traps is like 14 bucks for 28 of them to get.
Two of these fancy traps where you don't have to see the dead mouse this was 10 bucks for just two of them so hard to beat the classic mouse trap now you can buy poison but the problem with poison is then you have all these sick dead mice rotting away up in your in your house so it's really hard to beat cheap plastic wooden traps and fur.
And for bait we're going to use peanut butter which is the best mouse bait ever so you guys ready to start beating up some traps open up open up these mouse traps right here can you open them up alright guys here we go we've got all of our traps ready to go we need to put peanut butter on each one so let me show.
You how to do it so take a little peanut butter on the knife just a little bit okay and we just go like that okay see just like that you get it only on the metal part nothing else though just like just like that okay you don't want it anywhere else not on the wood not anything else just right like that.
You guys go ahead here's four knives are you guys please take a knife and start helping me put peanut butter good job Jason yeah that's not too bad just on the tip of the middle part right okay that's it yeah so the reason why you put the peanut butter only here is if you put peanut butter anywhere else the mouse will start.
Licking it and then they'll set the trap off and it won't get them so you want it only here so that their head is right here where the trap goes on I need a way to to carry them okay that's about half of them yeah it should be good no no we're good we're good I'll come back for more here all right so check out my garage is it any shock that we get mice.
In here I mean look at this place yeah so cleaning up would be really helpful but killing the mice is quicker all right time to get up in the crawl space one year I did this and I can't find a rat snake up there so this is usually where I come to get them you can see about half my traps from a year ago still aren't sprung and.
They're still baited with peanut butter so that means there are not a lot of mice here this is not where our problem is coming from right here this is mouse poop that's what it looks like the size of my finger right there a little cylindrical piece of poop it's a pretty old one itself I don't feel there's been icing here for a while so here's the old.
Hole where the mice used to get into our house you can see I filled it up with the yellow foam and looked underneath it on the little 2x4 underneath the hole how it's discolored from hundreds of mice jumping in and out of the hole and peeing right there you can see that's how they used to get into the house but that hole still sealed up.
So they're getting in some other way darn I gotta find it one of my traps was successful see a little mouse skull ribcage and everything yep there's one of them there's another one of a little skull in it alright so we're gonna sit set an extra trapper tooth all the way up here might as well not like we have a shortage of traps all right so there we.
Go yeah peanut butter got on the trigger made it slick so all right I got forward trap set here in the crawl space above the garage I'm gonna go get in the crawl space above the house to see if we can't figure out what's going on okay first thing to do.
Inspect the top of the board yeah as a mouse crap there it's a mouse crap there not a time this is our attic see it's got full of insulation here try not to step in between the joists and end up my demise you know I'm not seeing any signs of mice being digging in the insulation a few poops but they could be pretty old yeah we'll see what happens.
I'll throw some traps around the attics done now we need to do the garage so I'm gonna put a few traps up on the shelves in the corners or I keep my car babe I've got lots traps we're gonna spread out the luf important part is to remember where you put all the traps so you don't accidentally find them with your fingers you know months later so.
Now I need to set some traps inside but we've got a two year old likes to touch things so we need a spot where he won't get his fingers snap yes is where the mouse ran out from under so I'm gonna put a trap in there okay over the 28 traps we had we used a.
Little more than half of them so about 15 16 traps set out I'll check them tomorrow morning and see what happens hey guys you want to check the mousetraps okay let's let's see what we got here let's see what we got okay I see something don't reach Endor today that one of the traps one of the traps is still good hold on a second let's see.
Hold on hold on let's see if this is the same one that ran across my feet when I was making Thanksgiving dinner that matches it's him it's him I recognize that face anywhere oh yeah oh okay there we go did its job just like it should now this is the number one advantage to buying cheap mousetraps you throw boy no.
Messing with demise okay so here we are in the garage we're gonna check these traps to see if we got anything no no yeah no mice in the garage interesting all right no mice up there that's a good sign I'm here in the Attic above our bedrooms and all five traps are untouched so.
That's a good time well this is good news we put out 1518 traps and only caught one Mouse so that leads me to believe that that mouse I saw in the kitchen might have just been a lone wolf operative as opposed to a part of a bigger terror cell so we can hopefully get them all out so I'm gonna replace the trap in the kitchen and I'm gonna.
Keep checking these traps for about a week or so I don't see anything after a week means we probably got them all so see how it goes well guys it's been a week and no more mice I haven't caught any more mice in the Attic above the garage in the garage in the kitchen so I think we got off lucky I think that Mouse was a lone wolf operator instead.
Of part of a bigger problem so good news there well I hope you guys enjoyed this video if you'd like to see more videos from the outdoor boys YouTube channel don't forget to click Subscribe we put out new videos every week thanks for watching guys
