Can you put mice in this habitat or will they escape through the wires?

Wires are only about 1/4 - 5/8 inch apart so there isn't a way for them to escape unless the tubes aren't attached properly on the sides. Just remember to push down till you hear/feel it click into place.

I have a dwarf hamster and he is fine in it , the only thing he did was start chewing on a plastic piece at the top, I just put a small tube in the spot so he couldn't get up there anymore and he's fine. But there has never been a problem with the bars

Mice should be fine in this cage. It is a very nice cage we have two of them.

Definitely. I would suggest buying glue traps and attaching them inside a long box. So much cheaper and just as effective. I think mine worked because a mouse got trapped first and the snake went in after it. May seem cruel but live bait will attract Mr. Creepy a lot faster!

There are no plastic parts that the rats/mice can eat through. The lid-window is plastic but cannot be eaten/bitten through. Keep the entrances clear and free of debris and you will trap the animals - so long as your rats/mice are small enough to pass through the entranceways. If you are looking to trap large rats you might have to look for another trap

We put some electrical or duct tape around the frayed wires and the end of the wand. It doesn't seem to affect the movement of the mouse. Our cats really love this toy, I wouldn't buy it otherwise. Between the wires fraying and the iffy sharp points and tiny loops where the mouse connects to the wire, the manufacturers really need to do some redesigning. We never leave it out unattended.

Stick it inside a tupperware container with holes cut on the sides so the mice can get in.

So sorry didn't answer sooner been very busy. Yes I would say you could house your rats in this condo, wires are spaced close enough, but you'll need to put cover over upper tier so their feet won't be damaged. They should have ball with all the room. Good luck & have fun.

Asked my husband who has a doctorate in electrical engineering. Nothing to worry about as long as there is no gas leak. If there was a gas leak a nearby light switch would be just as dangerous. Be sure to put enough bait to keep the rodents engaged. A little almond butter was useless. Had to add more bait (horse treat works for me, but there are a lot of suggestions out there) Hope this helps!

well I guess it depends on how big the rats are. my girbil can get out of the wire part. And can they chew through the plastic clamps.

We have had a mouse coming and going from our chicken coop but have not had any issues with it getting into the feeder. However if you placed the feeder near some chicken wire a mouse could probably climb in.

Haven't tried it but I think it could work. Mice don't like the mesh and it should wrap well around the pipe with plastic zip ties.

I don't think so. There are two metal plates toward the back of the trap by the bait. It's only when a mouse/rat crawls in there far enough that they step on both plates, completing the circuit, and get shocked. Something going in only two/few inches wouldn't connect both plates.

I don't think anything is mouse proof. Its a hard plastic I'm sure mice can chew through it, however it does have an airtight seal so I'm guessing that if the mice cant smell it they won't bother it. I'm not however, a rodent expert. You might wanna call an exterminator and get their input.

No it doesn't mess with the wiring. I have found out that peppermint oil is more effective in scaring away mice.

Hello yes I think they will be able to get through. The openings are 1inch apart and a hamster, mouse and even rat may get through.

I put them in areas near bird feeders, next to our shed, at the base of dense shrubs, in brush piles, or even tall grass. I have even put them under our front porch and back deck oh and in the garage since we've seen mice show up in there in the winter.

Yes. I used it to stuff in around wires in conduit to keep mice from getting into the junction box. I had used steel wool but the damp area caused it to rust out. The copper will solve this problem and you should work for you too.

I purchased for the inside of a stored camper ( during the winter months only ) I also used "mouse proof " as an added form of protectant. Come spring time open up ( in New England ) the mice and chipmunks had lived in there . Neither worked. Sorry to disappoint you. You would think that an enclosed area would be an ideal situation for both items. I am champagnetom@yahoo.com
