......I've seen them in hardware stores, Claudia. They're just a little plastic box with one end being a falling door. Bait them, set the door and check frequently to see if the door is closed. If it is, take the trap to the release area and open the door to release. Pretty easy and you don't even have to handle the mouse.

HRP - if you wanted to throw in a link in this thread to where these live traps can be bought, that would be great!

Thx!
