Cables. Don't forget cables. They sometimes go for the insulation, which could become a fire hazard.

Get 2 medium sized boxes for moving.

Cut one of them up to make a ramp into the other box.

Put peanut butter or almond butt on the ramp and in the box.

Goto bed after drinking said alcohol.

Look in your box the next morning and your new friend will be there smiling at you.

Find them a better forever home.

Fun fact: mice can travel upwards of 2 miles to find their way back to a habitat they've been removed from

I know it's a autocorrect, but "humanely put out of it's mystery" is exquisite boneappletea

That is pretty great...

That sounds a lot like what my coworker does with chipmunks. Except, it isn't a box, it's a bucket. And it isn't a forever home, it's 8" of water.

Why would he kill chipmunks? I used to live somewhere where they were all over the place, but they only ever made annoying noises and taunted my dog. I never had one even try to come into my house.

Mice don't go inside for food, the go in for shelter and then find food. Not having food won't make them leave. As long as you have a warm place to stay, they are going to stick around unless you help them leave.

They will chew the living fuck out of your house. You have to get them out of your house. Killing them is just one way.

Mice don't live very long even under the best of conditions.

Even better if you know someone who has ferrets.

He had a ton of them, they'd chew at stuff around his house and ruin his landscaping. I think he said he got 18 in one day before.

Get help

It's ok. Across the whole insect, plant, animal kingdom there are cases where cohabitation is not tolerated and often leads to one party's death. This is how things sometimes work.

How about

Either I had weird chipmunks or other people do, because even bees did more damage to my house than chipmunks.

Get a bucket or box and place a plank reaching into it. Glue an almond or something with peanut Butter to the end. Oil the plank at the point of no return.

You might have to cover the the edges so they cant jump out.

Thats how I caught 7 mice in a day that refused to get into conventional traps for days.

Can confirm, I just about killed a college roommate once because he wouldn't do his dishes and snored like a banshee.
