not that much, domestic dogs die all the time from lapping up anti freeze spills. its sweet and stays semi-warm during the winter. perhaps they thought it would be delicious.

Cats are known to drink antifreeze too because it is a sweet taste to them.

I suppose the mice did the same and died just like the cats do after drinking it.

Kinda weird though.....hey at least you won't have any mice problems in the near future

well i was pouring it into an oil pan today so i could bottle it up for mexican zone and all these mice carcasses (well marinated) were on top of the oil pan when i was one...thought they were leaves at first. poor guys.

i dont really mind mice in the garage, i mean, w/e, they gotta keep warm too, and they make less of a mess than i do...they just need to stay outta my basement and attic.

Just put a little antifreeze in a container in the basement and the attic and they eventually will be gone.
