I accidently found a pretty good mouse trap this winter. I use water and fermented honey in a gallon milk container (about 1/3 full) to catch yellow jackets in the fall. They work well catching the yellow jackets and the bees pretty much ignore the traps. This winter I neglected picking one up and had left it next to a hive. Late in the winter I noticed that 3 mice had drowned. I've no idea how well it works, but I intend to be lazy this next year and leave them out just to see. -Tim
