Hello.
It's incredibly cool homemade made do it yourself, will save you a house, a cottage, an apartment, garage and products. Well, it’s very simple to make it yourself from improvised materials. Literally what we throw in the trash.
By tradition, I post videos below on homemade products for those who, like me, do not like to read.
However, I recommend everyone to watch the video (which is higher) on this homemade product, because everything is more clear and visible there.
As you know last time, just yesterday I laid out a homemade “mousetrap” which many people caught and in general I got the impression that it
1. Not humane enough.
2. Not well thought out and practical.
3. Difficult to manufacture.
So I immediately started developing a new improved version, and I called it "the most humane mousetrap." True, it’s more humane to catch hands already ...
Well, let me briefly describe what is needed from the materials and how to make such a homemade product.
For implementation, I needed such materials.
Materials:
1. Bottle with a wide neck with a capacity of 1 liter - 1 pc.
2. Steel wire (in my case galvanizing) 2.5 mm thick 65-68 cm long.
3. Rail 1cm to 4cm long about 30cm. (for the manufacture of the podium). You can replace it with something, so that the mouse just could climb.
Instruments:
1. Soldering iron (you can use any other convenient tool).
2. Pasatizhi (pliers).
3. Hacksaw on wood (if you have to make a podium).
4. Self-tapping screw - 1 pc. (if you have to make a podium).
Preparation method:
We make 2 holes in the bottle opposite each other with a diameter sufficient for the wire to pass in a place where the balance of the bottle is slightly larger on the side of the neck.
We bend the structure from the wire (as shown in the picture) so that the bottle can spin freely in the center of the structure and not cling (at least to the bottom) on the surface on which the structure stands.
We put a bottle on a wire structure and get something like in the picture.
We cut off a piece of a slat about 9-11 cm long and twist the two slats with the letter "g" using a self-tapping screw. You can make a “thaw” under the self-tapping screw, you can also cut the corners so that the podium is more stable on the surface.
We draw warning signs and write inscriptions so that the mice know that this is a dangerous zone.
We throw pieces of cheese into the mousetrap, put the mousetrap where they run and wait for the mouse (in my case Peppa's pig, because I don’t have mice).
We like and share good homemade work with friends.
