I'm having good luck with two Victor products. A "Tin Cat" and their smallest Hav-a-Hart trap (I think it's the 1020). I allow our chicken free-play in the barn and grounds, and they were constantly tripping "kill" traps and I didn't want them ingesting poison (being lower than the rest of the family in the food chain). I run these two in the coop and the live trap I empty probaby 5 out of 7 days. The tin cat doesn't catch as many, but it is simple, self "resetting" (it can hold dozens of mice and still work) and is great for places you don't get to every day.

My Kerry Blue terrier also doesn't allow a rat, though the mice don't seem to concern him near as much. One of our (4) house cats is what I consider a good mouser. The others would rather be well fed on kibbles and warm in the house. We have two pseudo feral cats (who I do not feed) that I figure account for six a day between them. They were the products of drive-by bootings (car slows, kitten gets the boot, car leaves). Jake either caught my body english or just instinctively knows they aren't allowed in the chicken areas or near the house and Ma's bird feeders.
