Mice!!!!!!!!!!
« on: May 29, 2007, 12:10:06 »
How do you mouse proof a cold frame! On checkingmy cold frame last night I found that the mice had found a way in - yet again - and eaten all my germinating sweetcorn. They were obviously very hungry as they also turfed up my calabrese seedlings and bit through a number of courgette stems!

This is the third time this year - how do others keep them out. Please help. :'(

Rat poison. Anything they're likely to go for needs to go on the top shelf in the mini-greenhouses (I found that out the hard way) and poison soon disposes of them.
