Another winter has gone by and we are having the same problem as before, the mice moved into the kitchen under the refrigerator and the drawers near it. any solution?? and some in the storage compartment.
I was afraid that the rodents here would jump or climb over it too. It is only 12 inches tall. Some of the rats I've caught in rat traps have bodies up to 8 or 9 inches long. But so far, so good.Hmmnn,,,, the rats we got in Texas would jest step over that shinney tin stuff
Greetings . I am new to this, so if I do something wrong please forgive me. Mice are a problem. I am farmer and they get into everything. I have tried everything except the electronic stuff. Nothing has worked for me. On our grain storage walls in our quansets we use a piece of tin across the top of our 8 ft high wooden walls. They go up this walls with no problems, but they cant get around the 8 inch piece of tin nailed across the top. I came up with a plan using that idea. I made a frame work out of 1 x 8 wood that I can take apart and across the top i nailed on roof drip cap made out of tin. They can climb the wood no problem, but the cant get around the tin. I put this around both sets of tires. Then in the front two jacks I made a piece of square tubing to insert into the jacks with a piece of sheet 8 inch square sheet metal welded around it . They can climb the tubing, but they cant get around the sheet metal. I have seen mice climb up steel walls. Wow. I hate the things. I will try to add pictures, but if they dont go threw please contact me if interested. grampak I cant figure out how to send pictures at this time, sorry//heartlandowners.org/%5Cusers%5Cleon%5Cpictures%5C2009-12-28Another winter has gone by and we are having the same problem as before, the mice moved into the kitchen under the refrigerator and the drawers near it. any solution?? and some in the storage compartment.
