And for even bigger problem than that, try RAID bear killer.

Just hope the mice don't die in the wall and raise a stink.

...and Dick Tufeld is the announcer. The jingle is indeed adapted from the Kingston Trio's 1959 hit, "M.T.A.".

@OpiumMuseum No usally the leave the house to find water and they die outside.

"Kill mice dead"

I had no idea that you could kill them alive.

@chabba77 Why? Just because they might pester people and leave some dirt around, chew on things,etc.?! That is NOT the mouse's fault! It's their nature. Mice are cute and make good pets along with their relatives gerbils, hamsters. Roaches are hated for the same reasons: germs; droppings. As with mice, noone looks at roaches's good points: gentle; pretty colors; cute, long antenae; can cure cancer; pollunate plants; predict hurricanes; etc. Both creatures are SO MISTREATED!!

Sounds like the Kingston Trio who did jingle. My Dad had a pump action spayer just full of DDT. My Brothers and I used to spray each other with it-we would fill it up with water. Used to break thermometers and roll the mercury around in out hands. Ilfe was good in the 1050's

Thank God that this commercial was aired before I was born-that mouse's bloodcurdling scream of "RAID!!!!" would have been traumatized the hell out of me as a kid.

By the way, who composed the jingle for this commercial...Flatt & Scruggs?

[otakuking10]

and for a freakin noisier problem, try RAID rooster killer.

[mlaura40s]

I don't like mice poison because not only is it dangerous around pets & children, but also leaves a dead mouse lying in the house, especially in the middle of the floor ewww.

@DekaSwan86326

The jingle was based on a song by the Kingston Trio.

@doinblow The ranger WILL like THAT, Yogi.
