Right. Here's the deal. There's a mouse in my house, and it's withstood all attempts to catch/kill it. It hides in the cupboards and couch during the day and runs alll over the kitchen eating and pooping on everything at night. We tried to get it with a mousetrap, but it just ate the bait.
Help.

Help me kill a mouse
The revolution is successful, but survival depends on drastic measures. Your continued existence represents a threat to the well-being of society. Your lives means slow death to the more valued members of the colony. Therefore I have no alternative but to sentence you to death. Your execution is so ordered.

If it hides in the cupboards, find out how it's getting in and out of them. Once the mouse gets in, seal it in there until it starves to death. Or just seed the cupboards with lots of mousetraps and ratpoison. Follow the poop-trails to see where it's running, then ambush it with a pellet gun. Boobytrap the kitchen too. Secure all the food and garbage in your house so the mouse can't feed.

Say, do you want it to be a threesome with your wife? Or a foursome with your wife and sister-in-law? I'm up for either.
Get a non-lazy, non-useless cat.

Glue traps, only problem with those is that you got to kill the rat yourself. A nicer way would to get a large cardboard boxput a small sheet or something over it and some bait and they'll fall it, make it tall enought they can't get out. Also, are you baiting but not setting the traps before you set them. Thats how your suppose to do, so they think its a safe food sourse. Atleast thats how you do it with racoons.

There's a couple board members who almost got neutered by their kitties.

Please get a smaller sig pic, Laird.
I'd recommend buying (or maybe borrowind) a kitten. Kittens are killing machines. Let it lose in your house at night, and the mouse SHOULD be dead by morning. If it won't, you'll get a nice show of a kitten playing with it's food...but sooner or later, the thing will be DEAD, and with minimal effort.
