There's no animal control (aka "dog catcher") in Ireland? How would they get stray dogs off the streets?

Anyways, I suggest calling the Dublin pest control that Erik just posted there. Thats your best option so far.

Theres a place called dog trust and they take stray dogs and care for them and find them new homes.

If you take the birds out of the room and use peppermint oil, you can bring the birds back after the smell dissipates. But I don't know how long it would take to really get rid of the mice. If part of your house is peppermint-free they might just go to a different room for a while, then come back after the smell goes away. Even if you pepperminted your whole house they might not go very far, and could return after you stopped using the peppermint.

The peppermint smell doesn't effect humans after awhile but lasts for days for the mice so maybe for the birds too.Anyway I used a little bit and put it on cotton buds they seem to be gone for now.

Is it possible to move the cotton buds further away from the birds?

I used it and it doesn't seem to be harming the birds also the window is open a little bit and on lock.The cotton buds are behind the boards that go around the room I cant spell the word for it but ill try its a ascertain board.

How is it going? Well I have a bunk bed and I sleep on the top and I now hear them on the bottom bed and I am getting a normal bed but I definitely don't wanna be sleeping with mouses.My mam put peppermint on the radiators around the house so they are staying away I used a little in my room but dont wanna put it on the radiator in case it effects the birds.Also I now know where my millet is going the mouses are taking it.Sometimes after training I just leave the millet I was using in the bird drawer instead of putting it back in the bag so now I know where its disappearing to.Also I saw a mouse in Tiko's cage a few days ago and haven't seen any in the kitchen since.

That REALLY IS going too far. I would suggest you called the exterminator, the rats could hurt you AND your birds. If they get a disease from them, highest chances are that they will die. And you could also be harmed. Rats are normal, they're animals, I've kept one as a pet, but wild street rats are WAY too dangerous. Please take matters and get them out of your house, for the birds safety, and yours too.

It really has gone too far. If I were you, I would stop wasting my time with the peppermint, and call the Dublin pest control number Erik posted on this thread earlier. The poison they use will not hurt the birds unless the birds ingest it, and that shouldn't be a problem, unless you let them run around on the floor.

I'm sorry, but there shouldn't be any excuse to let this go on for any longer. It needs to be taken care of ASAP for the sake of your health, your family's health, and your bird's health!

Mouses you mean they are harmful to humans unless they done something also they cant get close to the birds.
