What's Nibbling Tomatoes?

by Turps <anon@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > May 4, 2008 at 01:36 PM

During the last week some tomatoes on the worktop in my kitchen have 
been nibbled.

My first thought was mice, but there are no signs of droppings which 
usually is the first sign of a mouse infestation. There always have 
been tomatoes in the open on the worktop, so why have mice (if it is 
mice) suddenly developed a taste for tomatoes.

When we get mice, they live in the attic and visit the kitchen from 
there. So I put down some Rodeine C (blue coloured grain) in the attic 
but it has not been touched - this makes me wonder if it is mice eating 
the tomatoes. Also we usually get mice when its cold, not in the 
spring.

My son is an experienced mouse hunter in his house and said a safe way 
to place the poison is in a open plastic milk bottle on its side. So I 
have just tried that next to the tomatoes.

My kitchen is in Buckingham****re, England.

Can anyone suggest a culprit, please?
