Thread: mouse shit for stoats

Some time ago I read fermented mice shit is a killer lure for stoats. At work we trap rats, possums, cats, and stoats. One of the other guys also said about mice piss. Well yesterday he arrives at work with 2 mice that were given to him. So does anyone on here know how to prep the piss. We trapped a stoat this week with a egg, but dont get many, 3 a year. But this spring we have been seeing them (stoats) througout the valley. The Dabchicks on the lake seem to be breeding well, but we had coots nest 3 times near our boat jetty and failed each time. Also noticed Quail on our road with young. 4 babies then 2 then mum and dad with 1 then mum and dad with none. So now we are armed with mouse shit/piss and if anyone has any tips let us know. I work at Waimangu thermal valley and small scale preditor control is part of the D.O.C lease aggreement, but 3 of us there put more effort in than the rest. Whats that smell, its ok its my hand
