I never had much luck with Decon as a control. I use Havoc Rodent control pellets. They are in small paper bags you can put around the inside of the house attic and basement wall sill. IF they are not chewed into you can move the packet easily. Then I also place TOMCAT blocks for rat control. Tomcat uses fish oil as an attractant which works better with rats. These blocks have a hole down the center. I take a 4 inch piece of PVC pipe and drill small holes across from each other on two sides. I then take a small wire and stick it in through one side of the pipe as through a bait block and out the other side of the pipe. I make these two feet long. so you can lay them along the outside of the foundations as the mice and rats will run through them as they make a cover for them to hide. The pipe protects the bait from weather.
Another thing to do is make the outside environment less rodent friendly. Limit outside food sources. Clean up as much clutter as you can so they have fewer places to nest and hide. Example of this would be stacks of old feed sacks. Trim the grass away from the outside of the house foundation. Bare ground helps but 2 inch stone about a foot wide really helps as mice to not like crossing it being in the open and they do not like burrowing in the larger rock. If the house has a laid rock foundation then dig down a little below ground level and plaster the outside with concrete/mortar to seal all the cracks in the rocks.
There is not one thing that will work but all of the above will help but nothing will get rid of them 100%.
