We don't have any in the ouse because of our cats; outside is a different story. I sated putting out a dish of kitty kibble and we've had two or three indoor-outdoor cats swing by. Now we are a part of the cats' rounds, and they nosh on a bit of kibble, grab themselves a mouse or two, and they're on their way.

Peanut butter works great. I prefer the traps that have a metal bait tray/trigger, it has a rolled tube-like bait area, and you can stuff the peanut butter inside it so they have to work at it. The plastic cheese-looking bait trays, the little bastards can just lick the pb off of it without tripping it. The metal triggers can also be "tuned" with a little bending to make them more sensitive.
I fucking HATE mice! Nothing pisses me off more than finding where they've been tearing stuff up, pissing and shitting everywhere. Grrrr.....
There's a lot more of us ugly mf'ers out here than there are of you pretty people!

Snap trap with a metal bait pedal. Sew a small piece of raw bacon onto the pedal with needle and thread. Smear with a little peanut butter. Sit back and watch the action. You likely won't have to re-bait for quite some time.
Learned that one from my grandfather. They attempt to bite the bait and their teeth get caught in the chewy bacon and thread and WHAM! Shake out the deceased and re-set against a wall.
I've also had good luck with a small piece of cheese lightly pressed onto the pedal and tied with fishing line barely cutting into the cheese. Same concept when they get their teeth over a piece of the line. Even the dried out cheese continues to work.

Now I'm sad; or I thought about being sad until I read this response:
Dying laughing here.
Yeah, but it's so damned funny.
I hate mice too. Not a problem in my house yet, but I do have 2 cats. Had a problem with them getting into my truck & camper during hunting season for a couple of years. Read online that using 1/4 bars of Irish Spring soap would keep them away. An 8 pk of Irish Spring later and I had nice smelling mice running around. The next year I bought a dozen spring traps with the metal plate and added a touch of peanut butter. The first day I caught 8 mice between my truck (3) and camper (5). I always use nitrile or latex gloves to empty/reset the traps so I don't catch ebola (jk, I just think mice are disgusting and don't want to touch their residue). The next day I caught another 6 mice. No more after that. Haven't had a problem with them since then but I am prepared for the bastards should they return.
