I was reading in our local newspaper about 3 months about the increase of mouse problems. We have had mouse problems once this report came out on the newspaper and we picked up some mouse traps (THE ONE THAT DECAPITATES)....they grow into fuckin rats so yea kill those pest. We trapped about seven within a two week period and that was almost about two months ago. I haven't seen any lately.
ya had ya shot kid!

Get into contact with Pengu1n via PM, I will also link this topic to him. Within the past two months he has killed four mice in his attic using homemade traps made out of everyday items. He would take pictures of the traps for me the night before, then in the morning with the poor little mice dead in them.

If anyone can help you he can.

It makes the little fuckers crazy. I remember when I was a kid, we had a problem and put poison out. One of them ate it, ran out in the middle of the day into my sister's room and started running in circles, coughing up blood, tripping and falling before going into a seizure and dying. Was fucking insane. PLus, if you poison it and it dies in the walls, it's going to smell like dead ass.

Use a trap that kills it on the spot—fuck your roomate.

Sounds like the new age MacGyver. Except he kills them instead of letting them live.
As for non-lethal mouse traps, besides those posted by IzzyCraft all I could find was this design.

Seems like it's a lot of work compared to the simple ones by Roger Arquer.
He walks among us, but he is not one of us.

Okay I too have a mouse problem in my room. So far my kill count is 5. The method in the video by stanley_ works surprising well. I used a pringle can myself over the edge of my dresser. I've also used cheezeit boxes by cutting them in half and making them into a triangle shape and taping them together. Anything will work as long as its a tunnel because mice love tunnels. Peanut butter works well because it has a strong smell and mice love it, but you can use anything. I caught 2 mice this way the same day i set them up. However I did a slight modification and filled the trash can up with water ahead of time so they mice will fall to their doom and helplessly drown themselves.

This way I don't have to deal with killing them later or having them escape (which happened before, these mice can squeeze through the tiniest cracks its unbelievable.) If you don't want to kill them don't add water and just dispose of them at least a few miles away from your house....but I would recommend killing the mice and lie to your roommate that you let it out, or else it will only come back and make more mice babies.

Once the mice start to catch on to the traps you may have to use other methods. I've killed 2 by sniping them with a high powered BB gun, and one trapped himself in a box somehow so i gave him a nice farewell down the garbage disposer.

Remember, whatever you do, DO NOT let them go. They will find their way back. It is not cruel to kill mice because they are invading your home, keeping you up at night, eating your food, and shitting all over your room. I warned them to get the fuck out and they didn't listen. For me this means war.

Why don't you just buy a mouse trap? Haha in my house, we had one or two mice before and the mouse trap did the job.

Also who cares about getting rid of the mouse by killing it...getting rid of it is much more important.

A trap dude, it can be one of those cages that close when the mouse gets in if you dont want to kill it -_-. Otherwise, use the cage to drown them. Put some cheese or peanut butter or even bread worked for me.

Dont buy those that are supposed to kill them though, unless you want a mess, as it decapitates them :S, and with poison the mouse can die away from it, where you may not find it and it can stink a lot.

There are some high pitched "noise makers" that plug into sockets which supposedly scare away mice. I'm not convinced they work but you could give them a shot.

Edit: On a side note, I once had a mouse in my house. I chased it into the office near my computer. I shut them door and stuffed towels under the door to stop it from running out and I chased it for a couple hours. I managed to catch it with my hands and a plastic tupperware container. I threw the fucker outside and I'm sure it must have died. (It's -40C where I live so either it died or got into someone else's place)
