Looked pretty precarious.

Anyone know of a better way other than a rat snake or a cat? - Mike


I know of no scientific evidence to support this but it's widely
believed that laundry dryer softener sheets drive mice away. If it
works, it's probably the awful perfume they put in those things.

The poisoned peanut butter works as they get very thirsty and to
looking for water before they die which usually gets them out of the
airplane. The downside is the dead mice are poisonous to any animal
that eats them.
