Traps baited with jaffa cake , then get a can of expanding foam and go around the whole of the outside of the house and fill any holes and gaps ........ This did it for us

Peanut butter, cheap traps, and expanding foam did it for me. I still leave the traps loaded, but there seem to be no more. You also need to vacuum, the kitchen floor every day, doesnt take many crumbs to feed a mouse. Also soap and candles, apparently they even eat these. Everyone has candles under the stairs, so hide them properly!

Going to two cat rescue places on Sunday, we're gonna get two cats Really happy about this as we've missed not having a cat for the last 4 years.

Mind you, it'll probably end up like this:

It's a stupidly adorably kitten but a stupid person who called it a mouse. Quite clearly a young rat....

We had a mouse in our kitchen at work. We only found on when we notice a pong in there. Little thing had make a little nest using paper from our shredder in the cavity near the compressor pump on the fridge. Was probably quite nice too (if a bit noisy). Shame it decided to see what mains cable insulation tasted off. Shockingly bad idea

They can be quite clever.. took me a while to figure out why I wasnt catching them... you need traps with hair triggers

^^ you need to get ones like in my post above, they go off at the slightest touch and kill the mice quicker than that too (at least when I've seen them catch one)
