go with glue paper ftw... it's a pretty nasty business if you're of a sensetive nature; seeing the poor mouse stuck there, terrified and squeeking madly as you approach, then you have to kill the bugger... 'tis a cruel job, but it gets rid of them 🙁

At the point i would bop it on the noggin with a golf club so glue paper should not be a problem. Is this something you buy or DIY jobby? If so best stuff to use?

hardware store should have it. just need to place it around the edges of skirting boards etc (any area where the buggers are likely to run past/over), pop it in cupboards and under things as well, dark places where they hide out. Not sure of brands, I think they'd all be the same?

good luck 😀

If you use a humane trap what do you do with the mouse afterwards? Release it outside it will either die or just run back into the house.

We got a mouse problem and I solved it by removing the food source. the mice soon moved out again ( or died?)

If i had caught the mouse with the humane traps i was going to huck it somewhere miles away.

Just ordered some glue traps, bringing my total spend to about £20ish quid, so if the mouse knows what is best it will pop into one of the humane traps over the next several days 😉
