How to catch a mouse without a mousetrap

Here's how I caught the critter:
- Get a toilet paper tube and crease two lines to form a flat sided tunnel.
- Put a treat on one end of the tube: A cracker and dab of peanut butter works great.
- Get a tall (at least 20 inches) bucket. A trash can works well.
- Balance the tube precariously on the edge of a table or counter with the treat hanging directly over the tall sided receptacle.
- The mouse will scurry to the treat (they like tunnels) and fall into the trap.
I hope you then let the little mouse free?
Thanks, will try it at work where every so often we have a mouse problem, which they solve by spraying CHEMICALS all over the place. Not good for the mice or us.
