    The mice are pretty close to breaking this trap. Having a fat mouse at the end of the log weighing it down will prevent the log from rolling and also having one on each side to counter balance the log could also work. I expect to see ninja mice no sooner than 3 generations time.

      Yeah it's pretty much the worst inert gas he could have used. Mammals use the concentration of carbon dioxide in the blood as a signal to regulate breathing. Carbon dioxide is what causes pain when you hold your breath... Those mice died a painful death.
      Nitrogen would be completely painless, but it is not as convenient to acquire. Nitrous oxide (laughing gas) is available in the same canisters as CO2, is commercially available, and is the opposite of painless.

      Nitrogen asphyxiation doesn't work on rodents or lagomorphs like it does on other mammals.
      Also, high enough levels of CO2 don't cause the same panic response as exposure to lower levels, they overwhelm in the same way nitrogen or helium would.
      It's not that hard to acquire nitrogen though, most farm supply places carry it.

    • @ObjectsInMotion
      @ObjectsInMotion 2 роки тому +43

      Pure CO2 would knock out the mice unconscious immedietly which other gases would not do.

Nitrous Oxide would work however, but its more expensive.

Actually thanks to you Shawn I stopped using spring kill traps and using your design ideas I made my own trap out of a 2.5 gallon water jug, coat hangar and a 12oz minute maid bottle. I only filled it with water to a point where they didnt drown and I released them down the road into the field. Works like a champ!! Cheers fam!

  • @terryv
    @terryv 3 роки тому +47

    Simplicity works best. Rube Goldberg designs are fun to watch, but are far more expensive and far less effective. Still, it seems like there’s a bit too much friction on the center rod’s spin. Then again, maybe that allows the mice to get farther out to the middle of the log before falling off.

    Is there any instruction on how to do this the best way? E.g. a particular drill size to use for the holes for the rod? Should the ends of the rod be fairly tight in the holes or should they be pretty loose so they roll as well? I'd be grateful for some tips from anyone who has done this with this exact rod with success. Tips for the ramp set Up would gear too. Thanks

    It’s crazy you catch mice every week in your barn but it seems to do absolutely nothing to reduce their population as you always have a ton more to catch even after ‘dispatching’ the invasive house mice and feeding them to wild animals.

      Herd thinning doesn't always produce noticable results, but prevents an exponential population explosion that would definitely be noticeable.
