I have caught a mouse in a ‘live catch’ trap. How and where should I release it?
Mice do have a homing instinct so do not release it to close to your house otherwise you will be catching it again! Remember to be considerate to other householders. Do not release trapped mice too close to other people’s houses otherwise you will be passing your problem on to them.
