Mice and coco?

[louise]

This is something I haven't seen before, I am looking after a few plants for someone and the bloody mice seem to be burrowing in through the drainage holes and making tunnels through the coco.

 

Just wondering if anyone has had this issue before...

 

The coco is sans perlite and as yet, most of the plants haven't quite got their roots right down to the bottom of the pots yet. I cleaned up and refilled a couple of pots and set some traps. Today the trap has been covered in a pile of coco as the culprit chose the pot right next to the trap.

so you've found mouse poo , that's weird 

a stowaway or a local you reckon , maybe preggers lookin for a spot

I expect it's local mice, I have cleared a few nests in the last month from the sheds and aviaries. It's important to keep the mouse numbers down, otherwise I end up with snakes in the garden and I hate them more than mice.

Bush walkers often get bitten in the summer... silly buggas. Best time for bush walking is when there is frost on the ground.

 

No new mouse damage today, but I did water the plants last night... it seems to happen when the coco needs watering.

I'm confused was the bush walker bitten by a Snake or the Mice.
