Havoc or One Bite
same active ingredient in both,
it kills them quick ... Squirrels too if they get to it
I kept it in a bowl, up in the garage rafters,
checked it everyday when it was empty, I poured in
another packet, till it stayed.... when it emptied again,
repeat
Ice

Over here in CA they don't allow sales of decent potency rat poison. Takes 5 days to kill and I ain't into torturing creatures.
I use the classic wood n metal Victor traps to keep rats out of my truck engine bay. Wrap the metal trigger with cotton string and tie a knot. Impregnate the string with peanut butter so they bite n pull the trigger. Gets them every time.
For mice you can probably mix baking soda into some peanut butter and leave it out for them to consume. The concept is they'll get gas and die. Never tried just something I heard.
I have a good owl population here so mice aren't an issue.

interesting.
Prince Harry stayed up all nite watching the mice and keeping them from the couch upon which i sleep.
And i wonder where they are whilst i am up now.
i shall never leave any food or even my tea cup out again.
When i was a teen, i am sure mice found us. No recall of how we handled it. but i had 3 siblings cats then. What a team.
Now my one cat sits up and watches them so they dont dare touch mommy.
