Woolworths sell really great mousetraps. They are grey plastic, I think they are called "Striker" or something similar? We've had a bit of a mouse problem in the last few months, and it was a shock to me having never had mice problems before! We first became aware there was at least one mouse when I woke up one night to hear scrunching sounds...and there was a little mouse munching away on a ferrero rocher behind the bedside table (I have no idea where the chocolate even came from!!).

Where there is one mouse, chances are there are more...so set a few mouse traps if you can. Maybe one behind the speaker it was behind, one in the pantry, one under the kitchen sink etc. They love peanut butter, so I use a bit of that on the traps. The woolies ones are great, they aren't like a traditional mousetrap with the wire...once it snaps shut you can't see the mouse's head and don't have to touch it to get it out of the trap...hard to explain but my mum told me about these traps and having tried them they are great.

It's ok...I screamed when I first saw our little mouse too..threw an icecream container at it (DF was trying to catch it to get it out of our bedroom) and screamed again and the little bugger squealed back at me! Lol.
