I like the traps, but what you really want is to find out where they're gettng in. You have to think like a mouse. They can crawl through a hole the diameter of a nickel. This time of year, they're unbelievable. I removed the stone on our chimney. The attic was exposeed over night. The varmints must have been watching me and run in the minute I got off the roof. I caught 7 mice in less than a week; three in one day. STUDY your house EVERYWHERE, basement walls, attic, roof, siding, window frames, service/pipe entry areas. You will be surprised the little holes you'll find. We had a slight on-going mouse problem here(30 year old house in the woods), after searching I found some panneling on the garage wall that was loose enough along the bottom to allow mouse access. Another spot was where my vent stack exited the side wall, into the garage, and out the roof. The builder had cut the hole a little too big, leaving a large enough hole on top where you wouldn't notice it without carefully looking(ladder&flashlight). Be persistant. Good Luck!
