Once the mouse took the bait, he would get VERY Thirsty and need to find water. If no water was found in the house, (The key) he would leave the house to find it. We had a stream maybe 100 yards down behind the house. The mice would head down there..so we thought..OR.. wherever..And take the water. Taking the water was the final element/catalyst required in the mouse's demise.
Bottom Line: The mouse left the house to drink the water and die somewhere else. No more mice and no smell of decaying mice in the house
That STUFF was SO Effecient...it's probably illegal today.  NB |
That is the same theory with the bait I just recommended. Unless you have drinking water they can get to in the house they tend not to die in the house.
