Adhesive traps will work, but the take it from one who knows, the mice scream. Literally. It's not only annoying, but you're not likely to use such a thing a second time.

It's much kinder to kill them outright than use a sticky trap.

Gnu, that mouse has crawled into the oven and twisted itself into a place where we couldn't get to it to remove it -- somewhere in the insulation of the oven walls, we think. Eventually the smell went away. It didn't do much of anything to the food, but folks who didn't know certainly wondered what we were cooking 'em.

I don't use poison -- whether arsenic, warfarin, cyanide, or anything else -- because the critters will die in inconvenient places and stink up the joint.

Trap them.
