Few ways to tackle it , Mouse traps with food on it , or a cat. I have a cat and have never had a mouse problem.. as soon as they get a wiff or see a slight bit of movement , they're all over it like a groom on his wedding night!!!

If you dont have a cat , see if any friends have one they can lend you for the day/night

Yep, mouse traps are the best. Before I got my cat, I had mouse problems and traps with a bit of cheese or a pumpkin seed always did the trick for me.

Just buy the cheap traps though and then you can throw the whole thing out without having to touch the mouse grin

If you don't want to squish the critters to death with old fashioned trap, you can get one which is like a little box. When they go into to get the lure the lid closes behind them.

Use peanut butter as lure.

I just let them go a km up the road in bush.. They never came back. Too far for them

Note if you catch one, chances are there will be another. So set the trap again.

I didn't realise you could buy traps like thatdunno
Glad I know that now so if I get anymore mice in my house (which is very rare, thankgod) I won't feel so bad that I had to kill them. I don't like killing animalscrying

For sure their is a little family that usually hide in roof tops..behind stoves,fridges,behind furniture ect!
Best stuff is called Talon and simply put these small blocks of wax behind the places that I just named where they would be hiding!
Also throw them up in your manhole!(ROOF THAT IS)laugh

You could catch them in the boxy thing and let them go in some friends house?

Someone with OCD would be best. Just drop a new one in every couple of weeks.
