It involves adding permethrin to cotton (or dryer lint -cheaper and just as effective) and cramming the stuff into cardboard rolls - TP centers work fine, paper towel cores should be cut in 2-3 pieces. The devices are then placed at about 10-foot intervals around the lawn/yard, preferably sheltered by a piece of bark/wood, etc. so the rain doesn't ruin them. Mice and voles love that stuff and carry it back to build their nests, where the permethrin cleans the little rodents of all ticks. (Of course, if your yard covers an acre, you'd need about 100 of the things.) Expand My lawn mower would just laugh at those 2" TP cores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 I’m dreaming of a White Thanksgiving! Seems like snow on Thanksgiving is easier to get than at Xmas lately. 7” at the stake, about 1” fresh. Very pretty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hazey Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 Welp. That was more than forecast. Ended up with 6”. Worst drive in years. Snow weighs a ton. YHZ reporting 9”. This after 1-2” of rain. Potent storm. Birch bender confirmed...lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand After losing several indoor-outdoor cats to the local predators (coyote/fisher), ours now are inside only. Of course, our bit of lawn is surrounded by hundreds of acres of forest full of small rodents, so we could never place enough TP-roll permethrin baits to have much effect. My lawn mower would just laugh at those 2" TP cores. If your lawn is grass-to-grass with your neighbors, the mouse-nest "trap" tactic is out of play. If there's forest edge, a yard or two inside would be the place for those TP rolls to be placed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
