I'm up to 5 so far. I live in town and have never had to buy a trap in over 20 years until now. I had two in one sticky trap the other day. I'll say they are tricky little bastards compared to what they used to be when I was growing up, they aren't falling for the peanut butter in the spin traps at all. Either that or they don't like organic peanut butter. 
My dad used to bury a gallon glass jar at ground level, and put peanut butter on popsicle sticks that were balanced over the edge of the jar. Mouse walks the plank to get the PB, and falls into the jar.
When he caught a couple, we would go to the local lake that had lily pads on it. He would use a leather glove, catch a mouse in the jar, and put a weedless hook in the nap of its neck, then pitch it out at the edge of the lily pads. He caught some impressive bass and catfish with them swimming around.
I just use the wax block poison at the barn. In the house, a snap trap works great.
Be careful using antifreeze. Dogs like the taste of it too, and its deadly on them.

Thats a deadly weapon my friend.... ;/
Carbonated soda in a saucer works as well. They drink it and can't burp. Swell up their innards.
Diesel and match!
Can only imagine the big arse bass caught.
The mouse would swim to a pad. He would let it sit for a moment, then pull it off to swim some more. I don't think there can be a more deadly bait.
1. What's a pool noodle diving board? One of those round floaty things? How did this gizmo work? Trying to visualize it...
2. What do you mean by "took them to another neighborhood?"
