I had mouse trap. Only put a little PB on it. Not sure of the best strategy.
Get one of the zapper traps that electrocutes them and has a handy flashing light to tell you when the corpse is ready for disposal. (More humane than either starving to death or being crushed.)
@Cosmichomicide @elbutterfield I am not familiar with those.
Here's a link to the Victor (same folks that have made the snap traps for decades and decades):

Obviously reusable. And no touch empty.
@Cosmichomicide @poemblaze No touch empty is a big selling point.
Yeah, and while I hate to fan gal a killing company - Victor is the A game in the rodent arena. They stuck to what they know best. 🤷

@Cosmichomicide @elbutterfield I assume reusable. ?
Yep!
@poemblaze @Cosmichomicide @elbutterfield Don’t over bait it and use a cracker to keep the far end clean and you can do some elimination. Sometimes there’s some blood or urine but nothing like the Marie Antoinette variants of yore.
@elbutterfield Good idea
@poemblaze
These are also reusable, and humane.

@poemblaze Hot glue a peanut to the bait side. Mice are so smart they can lick the peanut butter right off without springing the trap. But when they try to grab the peanut the unexpected resistance does the job. (Sorry to those mouse lovers).
