Some mice in house. A few weeks ago had one eat part of the wood in the trap to get away. Thought it was something large and borrowed a live trap. Wired pecan (shelled) to trigger, oiled, it set it to be very sensitive, heard trap fall one night, found a small mouse in it which promptly squeezed out of the wire mesh. Got a large commercial type trap with the spring loaded wire killer on it, SIL gave me some commercial liquid bait. Mice licked out the bait without setting off the trap but finally caught one. Yesterday went and bought 2 new Victor wooden traps, made in USA, cost about 2 for a dollar, set them yesterday PM, caught one after about 15 minutes using pecan for bait. Almost none of the bait gone so I reset it, caught another by nightfall. Reset trap, no results yet.
Some people use the Tin Cat, which captures maybe 6 mice alive and then they have to be disposed of. These are used in some businesses where poison can't be used.
According to some accounts, the best rat catcher is a large blacksnake, but now is not a good time for them, of course.
