Or you can try this little gem I found at Big R in Rochelle.

It's called Fresh Cab. Little packet filed with natural pesticide like Balsam Fir Oil. They smell awesome, like Christmas wreaths.

A friend of mine who works on a farm told me they use these when they put away their farm equipment in the fall and it keeps the mice out. That's good enough for me.

I decided to use that, due having a cat and not wanting to have poison laying around, Plus the though of cleaning mouse traps just grosses me out. I don't want to see dead mice let alone have to touch them. Ick!
