ABSTRACT:
An apparatus providing a tunnel-way for mice along a vertical surface including a first entrance way into a tunnel chamber having a flared open wall portion, the inner wall of which makes contact with a vertical surface. The walls forming a tunneling entrance into the tunnel-way. The tunnel-way is positioned intermediate the first and second entrance portions into the tunnel, so that a mouse would encounter the flared entrances to the tunnel-way and move into the tunnel from either direction. The tunnel further comprises material along its interior surface to make contact with the pelt of the mouse, as it moves therethrough. The interior material is provided with a toxic dust introduced into the tunnel which adheres to the material and is deposited onto the mouse as it moves therethrough. To introduce dust, a first open end of the tunnel is secured with a stopper, and dust shaken into the tunnel. The tunnel is then stopped on its second end, shaken, and upon removal of the stoppers, the dust contacts the material throughout the wall of the tunnel to contact the mouse as the mouse ran therethrough. There is also provided a shoulder portion between the entrance to the tunnel and the floor of the tunnel, so that any dust which is laying on the floor of the tunnel cannot move laterally because of the shoulder portion.
