Uhmm well I think that mouse traps are cruel and especially the glue one cuz they are suffering big time by chewing off there own legs and arms so I think that this is the best way to catch them.. You take a bucket.. and put it right by your counter right.. and then you take a paper towel roll and put some peanut butter in it you need to put half of the paper towel roll on the counter and half kindaa hanging off so when the mouse comes he will run in to the paper towel roll and then he will eat some peanut butter and his weight will force the paper towel roll to fall into the bucket and then you can take him out into a forest or somewhere far away from your house and everyone else's house and make sure the bucket is more then 15 inches ! it works you should try it !!! =]
