Mice don't like cheese

Mice are extremely difficult to catch they are very fast, I presume that you are talking about the pest variety, We had a problem with mice recently, We tried everything to humanly catch them and it did not work, I can not stomach traps, although the mice were quite attracted to Peanut Butter. In the end a good poison over a space of a few weeks did the job, Although some mice are even imune to that. Try the Peanut Butter.

,it depends how you want to catch them there is a very good sticky paper you can buy, as they run on it they stick to it and die struggling. however be careful as my dog got stuck on mine so you would need to put then high up, maybe on a work top or where ever they are so that as they run around they will run on the paper
you can get these in most hardware shops, they are made by a company called big cheese they are not expensive
they have been the best things i have used in my stables

peanut butter
or you can go to any pet store (or even walmart) and buy the yogurt covered mouse food drops. i had a mouse and she LOVED them! so i don't see why a bad mouse wouldn't. at petsmart i paid like $2 for a bag.
The first link I've provided is to the yogurt treats my mouse loved. The second link is to the other treat my mouse really liked.

Put a little peanut butter on the trap. Your mouse will be caught by the end of the day.

You can buy a friendly mouse trap.Once in the container take it to a field & let it go.Put a biscuit in tin & be patient & yes it works I had a rat in my loft took 4 days eventually caught & released it.

Hiya, it's a shame you aint got a Yorkshire Terrier. We had mice issues in our garden a few years back, but since we got our suzie they've gone. Mice like chick peas, leave some out and sprinkle mouse poison on them.

I have a cat who's a great mouser! Problem is, she brings them in live and drops them in front of us to play with. They're fast little buggers so we then spend the night trying to chase it down and moving furniture around etc. NOT MUCH FUN! Of course if she does actually bring in a dead one, we're then obliged to dispose of the body.
SO, I am thinking of one of those SONIC repellents. I bought one for my mum last year for insects and bugs so I have a quick look to see if they do one for rodents and they do. I just googled it....here's a link. This is just to give you an idea of the sort of thing you might want to bear in mind. Hope it helps.

After all, why spend time trying to catch and dispose of it, when you can just stop them from coming in. Course in my case, the mice wouldn't really have a choice, the cat would STILL bring them in!
