Use the can with paper on the top, but cut a hole in the side near the bottom, and cover it with a thin piece of sheet rubber.

Fill the can to about three quarters with shine, and the pressure will seal the bottom hole.

The way it works is the mouse falls in and drinks the shine, lowering the level till the pressure is insufficient to hold the rubber. Then he escapes through the hole and immediately picks a fight with the nearest cat.

Works every time...............I'll go now.
