Mice have decided to move into the chicken coop. I haven't had a problem with them until just recently. I have a feeder made out of a 15" diameter feed pan with a 5 gallon bucket inside of it. When the mice started getting into it, I took a 24" diameter pan with 6" sides, put 2 bricks in the center of it, and filled it with water just over the tops of the bricks. I set the 15" feeder on top of the bricks. The mice seem to have no problem swimming to the feeder. I have used a coffee can 3/4 full of water as a mouse trap in the past and it worked great. I drowned dozens of mice in it. Why will they drown in a coffee can, but can swim to my feeder? What can I do to keep them out? I'm going to poison them, if nothing else works, but I'm afraid the chickens will get poisoned by the dying mice.
