To: ferrethealth@yahoogroups.com
You can buy humane traps at Lowe's, Home Depot and many other hardware
stores. You might even find some at WalMart. They're very cheap -
under $5, I believe. They're small plastic rectangles. You just put a
little bit of food inside and when the mouse enters it trips the door
shut, and you take the plastic trap into the woods and let the mouse
free.
The most important thing is to find where they're getting in and block
that entry, otherwise you'll be trapping them forever. (Same thing
with the regular neck-snapping traps; if one or two mice can find
their way in, so will their endless kin...)
