I was determined to find every single tiny hole the little blighters found to get into the house. I must have gone through a ton of steel wool and I did eventually stop them entering the house. I think it was 1982/83 we had that plague at the end of a long drought. The dust storms were horrendous! After the mice we had locusts but they didn’t last long and then a frog plague some time after that. The dates are fuzzy it was a long time ago.

    Having lived through 2 mouse plagues in South Australia I understand what they are going through. Mice in their hundreds of thousands. The dogs don't bother chasing the little horrors after a while. The cats ditto. laying down poison does not seem to make a dent in the numbers. Houses have to be completely cleaned out every weekend. All the cupboards and drawers have to be emptied and everything washed. Food checked and thrown out if the mice have been, they leave little calling cards. Catching and killing mice in the bath every morning. The dead mice in the house found before they stink too much. On a farm the hay put away for bad years is fit for nothing. Saddles and horse gear is ruined by thousands of little teeth. They will eat just about anything. But, the best is yet to come. When the food starts to run out - they start to eat each other. Yes, you get dead 1/2 mice, bits of mice, bits of legs, bits of fur and of course the smell.

    I think they need "giant" automated mouse killing traps, where they work 24

    versions, but they need HUGE automatic traps, that automatically drown them,
    and them dispose of them -- all on their own.
    Right now, they are breeding at a higher rate than they are killing, so it's a losing
    battle.

    For a start ,for house owner you can surround your house perimeter with corrugated sheets or flat steel sheets at least 2'ft high to form a barrier that the mice cannot climb over. If needed make 2 barriers a few feet apart. Likewise for farmers , you can designate an area to create a similar barrier to store your produce. Make sure the barrier is tight leaving no gap.Thats my suggestion.

    I lived on a farm in my youth and there is one lesson I learned. If you have a food source available, creatures are going to eat and nest in it. If your crop is just lying there in the open you will always have a serious problem. The Government needs to help them build facilities where the crop can be stored to minimize the damage and or get the crops to processing facilities quickly. I have seen other videos of Australian farms with bails of wheat/hay or whatever just sitting in an open field for weeks. No other method works. Our barns had tons of hay and just a few rodents a couple cats can handle. We never have grain or food stuffs just lying there in open areas. This issue with my cousins in the South is never ending.

    They need giant sticky traps 5ft by 20ft build on site, would cut their headaches for a few weeks. Mice learn to avoid poison after a while so not the solution.

    Ive killed 15 mice over the weekend. No joke. One day they appeared in the bird cage. Saw only 2. Kept setting the traps and oh my word a whole extended family moved in. Its been a massacre

    Obviously this is extreme and it must be horrendous for these people..but we knew of some family farms which had taken part in the ferrel cat scheme here in the UK. They give established colonies of neutered and innoculated cats safe free range homes around their barns and outbuildings and in return the cats do their thing !

    The only reason this particular mouse plague has made the news is because it might end up in Sydney. Lol

      Not true. It's affecting foodsources of both man and domestic beast, creating unclean conditions and destroying property. And... It's in Sydney already.

    My little cat would love it. He just kills them and doesn't eat them.

      yeah, cats are probably one of the most evil pets you can get, they actually don't just kill them, they'll torture them for entertainment for as long as it will keep breathing... if tomorrow you woke up the size of a mouse you'll be it's next victim
