Eeeeek! A MOUSE!!! Trap, poison, or glue?

Question

OK--I've now seen a fat little mouse in my carport shed twice. Luckily I've managed not to scream, but I don't think he/she/it is very scared of me. Just kind of sat there looking at me before it scampered off. Previously mouse problems were taken care of by my indoor/outdoor cats or husband. Now I just have two young indoor-only kittens and no husband. So what's the best fool-proof solution to get rid of the rodent? With as little possibility of touching as possible.

Answer 1

Get a squirrel trap and set a small amount of cheese or peanut butter in the center. When the mouse walks in it will drop the door and be trapped. Then, take the trap with the mouse in it and let the mouse out as far away from your house as possible. You won't have to touch the mouse at all, and no harm will be done to the little critter.

Answer 2

This should make everyone happy - except the mouse w/out a garage to call his own...

My sister used it and it works great.

Answer 3

DO NOT HARM THE MOUSE!!!

What did that mouse do to you, anyways?

You know what would be cool? Keep that mouse as a pet! You'll be amazed how cute and obediant mice really are!!!  

Answer 4

you shouldn't kill it because its not doing anything to you that's bad. its just living in the same space...make a trap so that you can let it go somewhere else like in a park and that wont harm it in any way or kill it. Dont become a  killer!!!!

traps kill mice so inhumanely that they suffer alot when it breaks their little necks

poison is also bad for it gives them a slow and very suffering death

Glue traps — A 1983 test that evaluated the effectiveness of glue traps found that trapped mice struggling to free themselves would pull out their own hair, exposing bare, raw areas of skin. The mice broke or even bit off their own legs, and the glue caused their eyes to become badly irritated and scarred. After three to five hours in the glue traps, the mice defecated and urinated heavily because of their severe stress and fear, and quickly became covered with their own excrement.* Animals whose faces become stuck in the glue slowly suffocate, and all trapped animals are subject to starvation and dehydration
