Johnny,

Every exterminator we have spoken to has told us that peanut butter is the appropriate "bait" for mice in mouse traps. It has worked like a charm for us. (Even Italian mice like peanut butter! Last mouse invasion occured there and withing 5 minutes of laying the traps with peanut butter we heard a large "snap" and that was all she wrote.) Good thing is that the bait isn't poisonous (sp?). Only concern would be getting to the traps on a regular basis so as not to have the odor problem from leaving any captives too long. (Oh, and maybe getting them collected before your cat got to exploring his/her territory.)

Good luck!

Robin
