Simple Bucket Mouse Trap


This video demonstrates the principles of the bucket mouse trap I employed around the chicken coop. The only difference is that I used a painters' roller brush instead of the can & wire. The trap is simple, effective and voids the need for poison, dangerous spring traps, etc. There is no need to reset the trap, and once set up, it is easy to transport around. I wrapped my trap in chicken wire to ensure the chickens did not interfere with the bait and mechanism. In addition to relocating the feeder and altering the time of feeding, this eliminated the rodent problem around the coop.
