Having a mouse problem? Hum, do you seem to have lots of food they can get into?
Mice show up because of lots of reasons. Mainly if they have lots of available food and shelter (cold weather) they move indoors. I do suggest putting most of your food in containers to keep them out of it.
The next steps are:
1. Put out Trapps
2. Put out mouse bait
3. if you want fun get a Humane trap that scoops them into a trap. Then take them outside and drop them out and have a good mouse stomp! (Stomping suprised mice can be reather entertaining! Though you are kind of sadistic for stomping then) Most times you will not stomp the mouse they are rather fast.
Having a cat does help with your mouse problem.

You don't sound very much like you love animals.
Your cat isn't a moral agent. It's not responsible for failing to participate in an ethical way. You, however, are a moral agent, and should be held responsible for the pain you cause on other things. Do you really want to be equated to a cat in terms of your actions?
What determines moral patiency? The ability to suffer. Can a mouse suffer? Probably. Is it therefore worthy of consideration? Yes. Can that consideration be overwritten by some other need? Yes. Is that suffering actually overwritten by a greater benefit? @#%^ no.

Humane trap
Stick with the spring loaded, neck snapping ones. They're more humane than the humane traps.

It's just assumed to be the general way of things.
The little ************ kept me up all night. I eventually blocked it behind my wardrobe so at least it wasn't running about but it still made loads of noise. It ran out when I unblocked it and left the door open while I went for a shower this morning.
Lolz

I had this problem in my flat. It's quite old, so there were mice between the floorboards, and the little bastards clearly thought they could use the living-room as they pleased. We tried blocking the holes, but mice only need a hole of half an inch to go through, sometimes less. We tried those traps where they get stuck and you release them into the wild, and it worked ok for a while, until they caught up with it. Then we tried mice poison, and that worked quite well, but not 100%. And, same as with the traps, they understand to stay clear of it after a while.
Then we got a cat. And I haven't seen a mice since.

I finally just turned my lose outside after capturing it and feeding it $30 a bag catfood for 2 days.
My cat is too scared of mice to catch them :/ Seriously when it was running around prior to catching it the cat backed up and then darted into my bedroom to hide. MY cat is only 18lbs lol.
IF I can get them out without killing them I will. They can also do more then just startle you. They chew through wires on your appliances and **** and **** almost non stop all over the place. They can carry disease by doing this.

Hi
Yea, mouse **** is nasty stuff to have around. The fumes from it are lethal if too much is inhaled. I'd advise not hanging your head over any piles of it.

Yeah, but then you have to look at it. Fire cleanses ALL.
My roommate just gave me the answer.
Buy snakes and unleash them upon your room. Preferably small constrictors of some kind.

Lol. PETA loves the plague.
Lift up the top of a gas stove. The mouse can't get directly into the oven. The stove pilot lights keep the top nice and toasty. He moved so fast that there was no way I got him.
Went down kinda like this:
my cuz: OMGOMGOMGOMG ITS A MOUSE!
me: A what?
cuz: A MOUSE!
me: Where?!
cuz: behind the microwave.
me: ****.
cuz: kill it!
me: WHATNO! YOU! you saw it first.
cuz: uh no.
me: omg are those turds? SOB, gross!
cuz: my lunch is in the microwave.
me: then get off the chair and kill it.
cuz: you just want the chair!
me: Duh... so kill it.
cuz: no way.
me: GROMET! HERE KITTY KITTY KITTY KITTY! stupid cat.
cuz: TAYLOR!
me: wtf? you gonna put a 40pound dog on the counter?
cuz: then catch it.
me: ...*****. Ok, block one side.
/screams of terror
me: oh ****. oh ****. oh ****. Its in the stove top.
cuz: lift it!
me: WHATNO! YOU!
cuz: ...*****.
me: stfu *****. you lift one side, I'll get the other.
cuz: what if it jumps out?
me: then I get the chair.
cuz: you are going to kill the mouse with the chair...
me: hell no. I'll be standing on the chair. You will be catching the mouse. now shut up. lift!
/no mouse
me: holy ****, is it in the oven?

cuz: all the way on.
me: oh god...

We never found the little ****** in the oven. Its the shorter version of the story and wishful thinking. I still hope we fried the damn thing. Or at least have it go back to its lil mouse friends:
me: yeah, ok. so clean up after your little pet. I will be in my room.
cuz: *****.
me: yep.

That's pretty gross, Bunny. You might have charred mouse remains in your stove somewhere.

There's a second part to the plan, then the plan ends.
Part 2: Turn on the Air Conditioning to full. Catch torpid snakes.

Jack Russel/Westie dogs are perfectly suited to finding mice.

When I leased my house to my sis for a year, one of her boyfriend's snakes got out and got lost. Molding torn off walls all over the place.
