I've tried two different types of humane trap but neither caught a

I meant to add that the traps were quite small. I baited them with
peanut butter, peanuts, chocolate, cheese etc - but with no success. I
suspect the mice weren't prepared to squeeze themselves into the small
space that the shop-bought traps provided.

A better option may be a home-made trap.


It's a mouse and it's a pest. Just kill it.

Before you end up with dozens, inside your cavity walls,
ceiling voids and loft, dining on your electrical cables
and roofing felt.
