Poison is pretty risky.

If you get one dead in your crawl space, you’re fricked for quite a while. The smell is awful.

I had a huge fricker trying to eat through our floor boards into the kitchen, would wake us up at night. Sealed that up and the outsides of the house with chicken wire. Set a bunch of traps that never worked and finally just left my crawlspace door open at night for our GSPs to go in and out as they pleased.

They killed like 6-7 and the problem went away.

Get a terrier or a cat.

DIY mouse trap bucket

Don't put fresh milk in it. That little mouse will swim and swim until he churns that cream to butter and climbs out.
