Humane, maybe, but stupid. Release them outdoors, and they're back indoors

True indeed. I once used Bingo markers to mark some mice a lady friend
had live trapped. She trapped the same group about 5 times over the
next week or so. Each time she caught one..she put another big ink dot
on each one. I think they finally died of in poisoning....
