    I wonder if you could use that to catch all the mice and let them get so hungry that they start to eat each other and then set the last two free....

    I had rats get in my attic last winter.

    I also tried the poison and the sticky traps but could not get them all.

    Then, I went to the sporting goods store and bought some red fox urine. Take some small Dixie cups and taped a cotton ball in the bottom of the cup (and a penny for weight). Sprayed the cotton ball with the fox urine and threw these about in the foam insulation in my attic.

    Guess what....in a day or so I NEVER heard rat noise again and never saw droppings there again. This was back in February.

    A relative told me about this trick and I admit I had my doubts but for a minimal investment (...and I still have tons of fox urine to use again) the damn trick worked!

    Try it...it is fairly cheap and man does that stuff keep the rodents away.

    Watched a few moments of the YouTube and it doesn't even have to be that complicated. Just poke a hole in an empty pop can and string it over the mouth of the bucket, the string being tied to where the bucket handle is anchored. Draw it taught and tie. Smear peanut butter on the can, lay a board from the floor to the mouth of the bucket as an "on ramp". Have 3" of water in the bottom so they can't jump out but can't touch bottom. They jump from the ramp to the can, can spins, kersploosh.

    I think mice are cute and that this is not "nice" but when the little buggers are in your house making a mess, I tell ya, this one works. Guys think I'm setting them up for a joke but it is THE mouse trap. You could make a humane version if you wanted. Or you could go full meany and put ONE little life preserver in there ;-)

    I've cought many, many mice this way in our camp. Uncle caught 44 one time.

    I've always wondered if those things that send out a high-pitched sound that humans can't hear would work.

    Both me and my parents tried the ultrasonic devices with no so good results.

    Try the fox urine trick....I am telling you it worked very well.

    Predator urine works extremely well as a repellent. My wife used bottled coyote urine around her rose bushes after she had enough of deer eating the buds. Once that stuff hit the ground the deer were nowhere to be seen.

    Personal experience here of a rat killed by poison... that died UNDER the finished hardwood floor. No way to access, had to wait three months for stink to subside. Not cool.
