    Hi Jon
    Apologies for that

    Was strapping down in preparation for incoming weather front and found the first polynuc casualty with two very sharp eyed mice already moved in
    Not sure where the third one was or the clock but it's lucky for them they didn't get a dose of oxalic or it would be the old nursery rhyme all over again
    I have evicted them as the weather is still reasonable and they were very sleek and well fed
    They will probably move into my shed

    I have noticed a few mice hanging around the shed. Must get the bait down or they will be eating through my apideas over the winter.

    They're already in my shed, there is scratching in the mornings when I go to feed the chickens. Last year it was rats.

    Time to crack open the poison I think.
