    I had mice a couple of years ago and got rid of them using traps. Don't use cheese in them - that's a myth. Use a small bit of bread with some peanut butter on it.

    If you haven't got any toddlers or pets, you could put poison down. The disadvantage with that is that the mouse eats the poison, then crawls away to die somewhere. The dead body could be decaying behind your sofa for weeks.

    BTW Irish if you weren't a dirty filthy Armagh man, with half eaten pizzas from last week lying around. You wouldn't have mice.

    yours sincerely,

    "The dead body could be decaying behind your sofa for weeks."

    Being a bit of a closet hippy, I originally bought the humane ones that trap the mice without killing them. They told me I had to release the mice at least a mile away, or they'd just make their way back to my house.

    After I'd caught my second one, I thought '**** this,' and went back to the shop for some neck breakers. <ok>

    peanut butter in a trap...apparently that works. Or you could get a mouse man in...

    i usually catch them and chuck 'em out the door coz i don't like to see the poor little buggers garotted.

    i put my finger down on their tails to hold them still, then i pick them up by the tail and fling them (humanely ;) ) out the door!

    Oh but be careful, coz once i picked one up too near the end of the tail and it broke off...whoops!

    Buy some pate (tesco's do one with bacon in, which is good) roll the pate into little balls, then roll the balls in mouse poison...the wee ****ers will gobble them up
