anyone else have problem with mice living on there boat in the winter months when in storage and know of a good solution to keep them out? ??? :'(

Half a dozen mouse traps baited with bits of peanutbutter coated napkins...Check every week or so and reload...They will get the picture pretty soon, or you will kill all the travelling mice that hop aboard your boat..
I store my boat in a locked building and the rodents still climb aboard,so then they DIE!!!!
My daughter says I'm heartless,,,she's right when it comes to those filthy creatures
The stick flypaper type traps work well too .but get pricey if you use a bunch....
It is cheaper than the cleanup and potential damage though..

or get the glue trapps at walmart their cheap,non toxic and work well.the name of them are called tom cats another thing that works well to keep them from coming back and to get rid them are the ultrasonice devices :thumbup: i recently had a little probelm and 1 and a half weeks later problem solved and no mess to clean up either.

I've never had a mouse problem.

make sure there is nothing leaning on the boat, or stairs the the mice could climb up.
they can't climb up the smooth sides.

No but they can jump and there is always the rope that holds the boat.... >

Good luck

my parents have these thing you plug into the wall out let that they use to keep the mice and rats out of the chicken coop and they work pretty damn good i dont know what they are called but they work good they get them from either rona or walmart

Ya my unlce has those at his cabin. They let out a high pitch frequency that rodents hate but humans and other animals such as dogs can't hear. They work very well for him.

you could also get them at home depot they run about $30 for one and i've used them with good sucess

I use the sonic rodent deterrent in my Apt. And my Apt is the only one in the building that is 100% rodent free. I have mice on my balcony, but they never come in the apt.

The easiest solution is a product called ONE BITE.

The name says it all.

Cats! Definitely the best method! I have a few barn cats around the house that like to hang in the boat. As long as they don't start wrecking things.
