AAAAaaargh!!!!!! Anyone successfully got rid of a family of mice from house?

[~TT40~]

we are at what is hopefully the end of the plague... we were catching like 20 a day... our local supermarket catches hundreds and everynight they have to pack up all the shelves into plastic tubs (some things like suger and floor are always stored in plastic tubs on the shelves) just because they get into it all...poor people.
Ive used traps - but make sure you empty them quickly otherwise the live ones will eat the dead ones and they arent so fun cleaning up then.. we used steel wool but that eventually did get eaten through. we baited...and are now discovering horrible smells around the house where they have died in cupboards and clothes draws.. I have just put mint down aswell cause apparently they dont like that (and it masks the smell), but dont know if its worked cause they have died down a bit now...(too cold) oh we also tried spraying amonia in our roof cause it smells like cat wee and mice dont like cats.
so we might have like 1? mouse left...i know we havent gotten rid of all of them, but its heaven here now compared to what it was.
hope you get rid of yourones.

but it was seriously bad here...the supermarket also put that sticky paper down that when they walk on it they get stuck...but well lets just say mice would do anything to get unstuck, even without their legs...

another way (we havent done this one though) is a bucket of water, with a plank across that rolls, so when they walk across it to get a drink they fall in the bucket and drown. I might put some up in my roof...
