Ok I have one that nobody has mentioned.

What you do is take a plastic pail and pour 2" or more of antifreeze (windshield washer fluid or what ever even bleach & water) then you smear a big gob of peanut butter on the inside of the bucket about 2" down from the top. Now put a nail through the end of a board and put the board up to the top of the pail just above the peanut butter, like a ramp, with the nail inside the pail to prevent the board form falling.

What will happen is the mice will smell the peanut butter and go up the board (ramp) to investigate. They will see the peanut butter and fall into the pail to try and get it. They then land in the antifreeze (or what ever you use) and drown.

This is a great unmanned trap. We use it in our hunting cabbin where there is nobody around for months at a time. You can get a lot of mice in one trap too, I think our record was around 50.

Probably not something you want in your kitchen but it would work good in an attic or a workshop.

Oh and the antifreeze works good to keep the smell down too, don't ask me why, but it does.
