I have had very good success usig a 5 gallon pail partly full of water. I drill two holes near the top opposite of each other and insert a rod through the holes. On the rod I put a can with holes in each end so the can will spin on the rod. Then I spread peanutbutter on the can and set a wood stick up as a ramp to near the can. The mouse will go up the stick and then jump over to the can with the peanutbutter, the can spins and the mouse will fall in the water and drown. The guy that showed me this one said he got 23 mice in one night. The bad thing he said was he kept waking up in the night when he would hear the splash. I have caught as many as 7 mice in one night and all you have to do is empty the pail and refill it with water. Hope this will work! Krum
