In grain harvest season here I use a few of these with peanut butter as the bait:
Most people dunk the trap in water to drown their catch but softy me takes the trap out in the bush, far enough from my home so they can't find their way back, and releases the catch! :oops:
I don't know where the mice go during winter? We've had plagues in some years - could catch up to ten mice in the house at night - but not a mouse anywhere for about eight months of the year.
Wheat harvest time now, followed by sorghum harvest. Expect the mice to appear any time soon.
You'd think twice about encouraging snakes in Australia. With the exception of the rare python and green tree snake, all are venomous with the most common snakes, the red belly black, king brown and black snakes being amongst the most venomous in the world. They can kill domestic pets in minutes.
