[QUOTE="FJRMaineiac, post: 1405513, member: 1061"] Yup, and there are different ways to handle it from there. The "humane" method - leave the bucket empty so the mice survive when they fall in and then you can "relocate" them to a new home. Most people, however, put water or anti-freeze (just a few inches) in the bottom and they drown. The anti-freeze "pickles" them and keeps them from smelling if you can't get to the trap frequently. However, I wouldn't want to use anti-freeze where dogs or cats might get at it, so I have opted for water. Very effective. My only problem now is that I think I have a squirrel or chipmunk in the area that is clever or nimble enough to lick the peanut butter off without falling in (or is able to jump out if he does) because I am coming home from work to find the ramps have been knocked off and the peanut butter is gone. I may have to break out the Have a Heart trap to see what the bigger critter is. Stay tuned. [/QUOTE]
