Rodent Control Guide From Today’s Homeowner Magazine
Tim Snyder outlines practical mouse and rat control strategies for homes and outbuildings. He recommends traps as first line, outlines snap, glue, and live traps, and covers bait choices and placement. The piece stresses multiple traps over 15 days, safe use of poison, and preventing reentry by sealing openings and storing food securely.
Rodent abilities and behaviors highlighted in study notes
The report outlines rat and mouse traits such as keen taste detecting poison at low levels, two month reproduction, ultraviolet urine glow, and strong swimming ability up to 30 seconds. It notes poor vision, colorblindness, climbing rough surfaces, 12 inch vertical jumps, and 8 foot drops. Nests often under appliances. rats fear new objects. traps on runways may sit unused for days.
Pet cemetery plans spark talk of human burial rights
Wills argues for preplanned pet burials and home burial options, noting the desire to avoid landfill disposal. Coleman reports growing interest in pet cemetery services, including a discussion on whether humans might be buried in the pet cemetery, though the human cemetery remains off limits.
