I remember an ex of mine in college had a mouse problem in his mum's house. They filled a bucket with soapy water and rimmed it with peanut butter. I think there was also a little ramp so the mice could get up to the top...but then they fall in and drown. I absolutely hate the thought of killing mice but I understand it is necessary if they get in your house. I don't agree with glue traps....those seem far too torturous and I have heard horror stories of mice gnawing off their own limbs in order to escape it. I believe when we had mice at my parents house a couple times (luckily they were in the walls and floor and not actually inside the house where we were) we put poisonous food down. They would take it back to their nest and it would dry them out so they wouldn't smell. Do they have anything like that in Australia?
