Before I got this book I was waging a war of attrition, and the rodents were winning. My nemeses were, and still to a lesser extent are, mice. I tried the snap traps and the rodenticides, but when you consider that mice mate up to 17 times a year and each litter has 4 to 9 little gnawers!, well, I needed other weapons in the anti-rodent arsenal. This book knows about `em. Also, the practical tips in this book will make what you are using more effective. When you can buy a book that is as fun to read as it is informative, then that is a find. The last chapter has a slew of listing of that companies that offer remedies to various pest problems ( their web page are included).

In this series there is also:"Outwitting Bears" and "Outwitting Ants". I can't wait for for Lyons Press to publish "Outwitting the IRS". Highly Recommended.

It's easy to know when mice have invaded a home, and hard to get rid of them - but this provides some step-by-step solutions for any struggling with rodents. From choosing commercial deterrents which work to sealing a house against infestation and handling problems in apartment buildings, Outwitting Mice provides many useful suggestions.

Not only useful, but also entertaining. I successfully applied some of the tactics to rid my home of the little varmints.
