Is there anything else you can do to get rid of shrews other than by mouse traps?

You didn't say why the mouse traps weren't working for you. I once set a mouse trap, stepped back, and a shrew immediately came out from behind my hot water heater and approached the mouse trap. Once I saw how it behaved around the mouse trap, I changed my trapping technique, and I had much better success. The shrew approached the trap, and it quickly poked the trap several times with its snout in sort of a jabbing fashion as if the shrew was investigating the trap. When the trap was sitting by itself on a smooth linoleum floor, the trap tended to get pushed away, and the trap frequently tripped without catching the shrew. After that, I put something heavy behind the trap (a can of paint in my case), and my success rate was much much higher.


How can you trap a mouse?

Purchase a mouse trap and bait it with a little peanut butter (not cheese).Mouse traps come in two forms:-Lethal - the mouse is snapped with a spring wire that kills it as it takes the bait.Non Lethal - the mouse is retained in a chamber as it takes the bait. You then have to release the mouse somewhere well away form where you trapped it (or it will be back). These traps also get very messy with mouse urine and feces. It is also important that you do not leave the mouse in the trap for more than an hour or so, or you could be charged with cruelty.
