You can usually find 'humane traps' for mice in a pet store. Just ask someone who works there. (Look on the box/bag on how to use them)And no these traps do not kill the mouse, they just trap them, you can re-open the door later and set it free if you would like.

Answer 3

without teeth: don't try to do it yourself, call a petshop, or a wildlife rehabilitator now!

With teeth: but a gallon fish tank (with lid) ,mouse food,and heat pad. Turn the hat pad on low, place the tank on-top of the heating pad, place two to four inches of shredded toilet paper in the bottom of the tank, cut the center of a toilet paper roll in half to make a tunnel, place one half under a thin layer of paper, the other half on-top of the shredded paper, and then get a water/soda bottle cap, place inside of a jam jar cap or a larger lid (to catch any water that is spilled, and fill center cap ONLY with CLEAN water. Now get some cheese (American) tear into four quarters, and then put two quarters aside in the fridge, and one quarter in the half tunnel on top of the paper, and the other in the burred tunnel.

Answer 4

peanut butter on a mousetrap works for me I caught the one in my house with little chunks of cheese and a cage (humane way.) You can rent these cages from pest control and it's not all that expensive. You didn't say if it was a pet, but whether it is or not you don't want to kill it if you don't have too. If it's a mouse from somewhere in the house (they often nests in nooks and crannies of a house) then you'll simply have to put it outside (if not a pet) near trees and shrubs where it can forage for itself if possible. Mother Nature is going to have to do the rest.
