The Fine Art of Rodent Hunting

* For mice: effective ang fly paper. Baygon and Lion/Tiger Brands are ok. The rest have less sticky surfaces (nagtitipid sa pandikit), while others have very thin paper (mabasa lang takas na si Mickey). The idea here is to look for their lungga and where they usually pass. Mice have POOR vision, and rely on FEEL to move around. And they usually take a certain route (like ants). So look for those and place them paper accordingly.

old apartment, caught around 29 in one night. Reused the 2 pieces of flypaper. Everytime may 3 na mice on the flypaper, I used an Uling Sipit, placed them mice in a can, and poured boiling water. Instant sabaw ng daga.

2nd to the last residence: caught around 47 in 3 years.

latest residence, caught around 10 (wiped out the colony lolz).


* For Rats: effective ang Baygon Racumin PASTE. This is the one that has the yellow container. The poison is wrapped in an oily, juicey sachet. The trick here is NOT to handle the sachets with your bare hands. Wrap your hand in plastic first. Rats have sensitive smell, and can detect that a human has placed something, therefore it may be poison.

I've killed around 40++ rats (the size of cats) in 2 weeks using this method. Pano ba naman, ginawang Jolibee ang engine bay ko. May Jolibee tissue, may pieces of Jolibee Plastic Cup, and may bones ng JoliiChicken pa... grrrr! That meant WAR.
