A cat is not bad, if you like cats, or tolerate them, but you need one that hunts. A good Mouser-cat would get them, my last cat (Animal) was a Hunter. There were dead mice everywhere, neighbors ( condos) complained, he was an outdoor cat, killed by a truck or something. That cat would leave dozens dead mice on your doorstep a week.
New cat (cooter) would play with a mouse. I don't know how to pick a hunter-cat, but if you get one, it will work.

Woman Shoots Herself While Trying to Kill Mice
POTTER VALLEY, Calif. — A Mendocino County woman who was trying to kill mice in her trailer with a gun ended up shooting herself and another person.
The 43-year-old woman pulled out her .44-caliber Magnum revolver after she saw the mice scurrying across the floor of her trailer on Highway 20 in Potter Valley, sheriff's officials said.
But she accidentally dropped the gun, which went off as it struck the floor. The bullet went through the woman's kneecap, bounced off the keys sitting on the belt loop of a 42-year-old man in the trailer and grazed the man's groin before ending up in his coin pocket.
Authorities did not release the shooting victims' names.
The mice escaped the shooting unharmed.
How to catch a mouse without a mousetrap
Humanely
I had a little friend visit my apartment the other week, and for a while there I was ready to make peace with him and co-exist. But after I cleaned up the place and ordered pizza one night, and it crawled up the side of my chair onto the sleeve of my shirt, I knew it was time to bid farewell.
Here's how I caught the critter:

Here's how I caught the critter:
- Get a toilet paper tube and crease two lines to form a flat sided tunnel.
- Put a treat on one end of the tube: A cracker and dab of peanut butter works great.
- Get a tall (at least 20 inches) bucket. A trash can works well.
- Balance the tube precariously on the edge of a table or counter with the treat hanging directly over the tall sided receptacle.
- The mouse will scurry to the treat (they like tunnels) and fall into the trap.
thanx 4 all the replies...think i am gonna go with the poison angle...the peanut butter trick works on the traps, but everytime i put it out more keep coming back....think they r already in the wall..caught 4-5 in a 10 day period now....i like that toilet paper trick except, i aint lookin to make friends and let'em loose...i want'em dead and his whole family dead....i own a gun but aint wastin bullets on something that is 3 inches....and i hate cats...
Over at Walmart they have "mice cubes" they are only about $2 a piece. They work great if you want to keep them alive, works sort of like a crab trap where they can get in but cant get out. I used half an oreo cookie and a goldfish snack and caught one every day until they were gone. Then I would just drive a few blockes aways and let them go.
had a mouse problem until i bought 5 traps at walmart...killed about 15 in 10 days and haven heard or seen sign of one since.....im an animal lover and tree hugger but cant hang with anything that shits in my house.....its been at least 12 or 14 months...can leave trash or food out for days without havin to worry about mouse shit.......'keep the continue'
