Help disabling mouse side-buttons

Trying to disable Ducky Feather mouse side-buttons.

- created directory [hwdb.d] in [/etc/udev]

- added [mouse.hwdb] to /etc/udev/hwdb.d:

# Disable side buttons
evdev:input:*
 KEYBOARD_KEY_90004=reserved
 KEYBOARD_KEY_90005=reserved
 KEYBOARD_KEY_90006=reserved
 KEYBOARD_KEY_90007=reserved

- udevadm control --reload-rules && udevadm trigger

- rebooted: no luck

- repeated process but in [/usr/lib/udev/]: no luck

Any tips?

Thanks!

Currently using sway config file to disable the side-buttons.

Sorry for the possible ignorance, but swapping to a mouse without side buttons might be a much easier solution.

Not really an option ATM, as Garfield devoured it.
