Over the past few months I have had issues with mice in my attic. My land lord has tried a few things, nothing has worked. The exterminator will be here any day now. These house mice seem to come and go, as a week can go by and not hear anything, then there can be days you hear them every day.
So I got reading on wiki that mice rely on pheromones for communication. I found that very interesting, as most of my time while I am home, I am in my bedroom (where my computer is), and above my bedroom is where I hear the mice running around squeaking and scratching. I keep all my pheromones in my bedroom, and I am always spraying them on me while I am in here.
Is this an odd coincidence, or could they somehow through the ceiling be after my pheromones??
That is awesome. I guess you could try spraying the bottom of a deep and slippery plastic pail with something and leaving it in the attic. If it is filled with mice when you get up there, the mones likely had a role.
Actually, you’d also need an un-moned bucket as well to serve as a control.
unfortunately access to the attic is only from the outside, needing certain tools and ladders. if it were that easy I would have went right up there months ago when I first heard noise and killed them myself!!
LOL No they are not after your mones in fact your mones are probably keeping them in the attic and not in your kitchen or bedroom.
All mammals communicate pheromonally. What your mones are saying to the mice is human around keep your distance. They are not attracting them to the house. Now if you were using rodent mones it would but the mone sold here are quite human.
Mice look for warm safe dry places to spend the winter. Obviously they found some entry point to your house which will be almost impossible to find because they can squeeze into extremely small spaces.
Once the exterminator has done his job there are some things you can do to deter them. Cat fur is one. If you can get it place it around the outside of the foundation. Moth balls work well to. You will have to repeat it in the fall when they are getting ready to nest and maybe a few times during the winter when the moth balls dissolve.
You could get some plastic owls which is what my brother does on the farm along with some cats. This may sound gross but he will go outside and pee on the bushes. Human pheromones keep not only the mice at bay but other mammals like deers from eating the hedges. Course if your in the city or a populated area peeing may not be an option. LOL
I know the pheromone market very well, and I trust AD’s integrity, and I like that I always get my pheromones in 10 days or less. I received great information from the forum, and I always get my pheromones in 10 days or less. And with the AD 100% buyback guarantee, their as good as gold. Order now, and get a free sample with your order!
I have only bought from one other company, which was before I found AD. It was pherlure, which I thought smelled great and gave awesome self effects, but thats about it. Then I found AD, and been here ever since!
Thanks Tisha about your write up about the mice and my 'mones. My landlord did throw a ton of moth balls up in the attic in like Dec, but that did nothing besides making my apartment wreak! im thinking the exterminator will be able to track them down. I read using a black light will track their urine, and give a better idea where they frequent.
Mike we are just teasing you about the other mones.
This is where people make the moth ball mistake. You use the moth balls after they are exterminated to deter them. It doesn’t get rid of them once they are there though. If you throw them up there while they are still inside then it usually will keep them inside just away from where the mothballs are because they wont cross the barrier to get back outside.
This is why I said after they get rid of them throw mothballs around the foundation to deter others from coming back. This works in two ways. They wont cross the barrier to get inside again. It will pretty much destroy the pheromone scent left by the former mice which would indicate that this is a safe place to nest.
If you can stomach it the good old snap trap works wonders. Its really nasty though. I am sure the exterminator will be able get rid of them and give you good tips on what to do so they don’t re infest.
Look at the bright side, it just mice. In the summer my cats bring all sorts of things in through the cat doors we installed. Snakes, frogs chipmunks and they don’t kill them first. Trying to catch a chipmunk is a bitch
LOL
Oh true… I didnt think of that. Well they are not attracted to your AD mones at least. Some other places use stuff I wouldnt let my dog wear.
