I have a problem I hope someone can help me with. My dog starts barking almost every night around 10pm because there are multiple mice that start climbing around in trees at the edge of my yard. I would like to get rid of them so my young and curious dog doesn't piss off the neigbors (and me) every night.
The trees aren't very tall, so their activity attracts the dog, but they're far enough up that I can't get to them. And they are privacy trees at the edge of the yard, so I don't want to cut them down.
I've tried to shoot them with a pellet gun (quiet), but they're pretty small so that hasn't been easy.
I can't put poison out there anywhere because of the dog. And I don't see how I could set a trap in the tree, or if that would even be effective.
Has anyone ever had this problem, or can anyone think of something to try?
