if you have a B&Q near you, they sell live traps.

I have used one a while back for catching an escaped rat, they work really well,

only other suggestion is to just leave an open cage out with bedding food, water etc.

they usually come back to it, but you have to spot them in it, to close the door.

good luck with the hunt.

Thankyou yes i had thought of a open inviting looking cage with yummies in for it except im not in the rodent room enough to catch it at just the right moment

This sounds silly, but it works...

Get a small trash bin. Layer the bottom with a towel or bedding...at least two inches of bedding. Make a long ramp that leads up to the lip of the can. Put a favorite treat...like a Cheerio smeared with a bit of Peanut Butter at the top of the ramp, then sprinkle the floor of the bin with more cheerios (or whatever) and a shallow dish of water. Put the entire contraption near where you think your mouse is hiding out. You mouse will crawl up the ramp to get the first treat, then leap in for the rest.....but cannot leap out.

I make traps out of cardboard. Make a cardboard version of this http://www.greenfeet.com/mmGF/Images/tip-trap2-actual.jpg and put something that has a strong odor that would draw a mouse at the end that is a dead end. It will close off and trap the mouse. If they are chewers then they should last 5 hours. One time use if the mouse is a chewer
