I mentioned above that I was using the TSC poison.

Tomcat with Bromethalin Bait Chunx, 4 lb. Pail - For Life Out Here

Someone mentioned some of the poisons make the critter leave to look for water so they don't die in the building.

I suspect that's true as I have put it all over my house and barn, seen strong evidence that they are eating it. In fact they were eating it this past winter as fast as I could put it out. It was disappearing as quickly as if it were cheese. The mice are gone now as I see no evidence of them and the bait is not being touched. Prior to using this, I was catching 2-3 a day in traps.

I have not seen or smelled one instance of dead mouse in my house or barn. I suspect the story about leaving to get water is true.

All I know is I have no more mice, alive or dead.
