The best option is to place the trap so that it is only accessible via one entrance. Place lumps of wood on three sides leaving the "bad" end accessible. Don't leave any room for a mouse to get around the sides. Bait the trap with peanut butter - sticks to the trap arm, and mice love it.

Best I could do with text I'm afraid, but should give an idea.
This should almost guarantee a catch. The main problem is that people place the trap in open ground, so the mouse can approach it from any angle, not the "kill zone". So it usually sets the trap off without the desired effect.
Try it - you won't be disappointed!!

How can you trap a mouse?
Purchase a mouse trap and bait it with a little peanut butter (not cheese).Mouse traps come in two forms:-Lethal - the mouse is snapped with a spring wire that kills it as it takes the bait.Non Lethal - the mouse is retained in a chamber as it takes the bait. You then have to release the mouse somewhere well away form where you trapped it (or it will be back). These traps also get very messy with mouse urine and feces. It is also important that you do not leave the mouse in the trap for more than an hour or so, or you could be charged with cruelty.

Catch wild mice?
You can catch wild mice in a number of ways. The best way is to buy a humane mouse trap, which catches mice without hurting or killing them. This means people can get them out of houses without having to deal with dead mice. They are also really good for catching lost pet mice. You can also make a humane mouse trap, with a large plastic bottle (Coke bottles, Soda Water bottles and other such things work fine.) Cut the top off and then turn it back on itself, then put in some food. Mice go in and can't get back out again. You can also buy a plain old mouse trap, but these are very inhumane as they kill they mice, or trap them so they have to endure a slow death. Mouse poison is also quite inhumane, and can also put other animals at risk if they eat the mouse that has consumed the poison.
