How do I keep Wood Mice out of my rabbit hutch?

Set traps or get a cat. Good luck!How do I keep Wood Mice out of my rabbit hutch?
Sorry to hear about your problem. We had the very same thing when we had rabbits out the garden, the feild mice would have a right old time nesting and eating the food. We did everything you could think of , including putting poison around the hutch.It got a few mice but we werent successful in fully irradicating the problem. I was glad in one way when out rabbits passed away as we didnt have to see the rabbits homes invaded by mice anymore.How do I keep Wood Mice out of my rabbit hutch?
Blacksnake. Cats get in the way. Poison or snake. Mind you, need a big black snake so as he cannot get to the wee baby rabbits.
You will have to put out poison, where there is 1 there are 20 and they will keep making a way into the free rabbit food. You will need to set out poison and wait about 3-4 days and WA! LA! no more mice. This may seem cruel but ive been raising rabbits for like 7 yrs and at least once a year we have to put out poison or the mice and rats will over run the area. They dont stop breeding and it only takes a short time to have a lot of them around.
It's just a thought but, apparently, rats will not cross wire wool they absolutely hate it, so maybe you could try it for the mice it's worth a go and wont harm if it doesn't work, unlike poison.
Shoot 'em!!
they can probably get thru the wire, or they have eaten a hole into the wood.


either block up the wire, or block up the hole.


does your bunny mind the company?
put poison by the hutch
