Chased the little bastard into the closet and moved everything i can.

He is behind two cushions and a rifle case.

I've put the only sticky trap we have left in the spot most likely he'd come out.

I've made as much noise as I can against that wall and he hasn't scurried out yet.

What advice do you have?

This is where I'm at . I'm concerned he will scurry back out if I try and remove the cushion.

Got a kid with a blowgun? If you shoot it with the blowgun from across the room, pinning it to the baseboard your wife will be impressed.

It's a mouse for God's sake!
Throw the cushions, stomp the mouse as it runs, then clean the mess up with Lysol and a sponge.

Get in there, close the door, and put a towel or something covering the crack under the door so it can't get away.

Did I mention *take a Shop-Vac with you*?

Turn Shop-Vac on, start moving cushions and be ready to get him.

This advice also works for spiders.

Thats the thing. I need a second person blocking the door so the little fucker doesn't get out. The gap underneath the door is enough for it to get out.

2 people are better than one.

So I got it barricaded in the corner with a peanut butter sticky trap.

I'm heading to bed. If I hear squeeking I'll know it did its job.
Its going on 1am here and I'm tired.

If this isn't a indicator I need either a cattle dog or a cat I can't think of a better reason.

One of our other traps caught one the other night.

Its still cold so even though we patched up holes they are still getting in some how. Just not as frequent. It's been months since we've seen them and of course now one got killed the other night and this bastard is in my closet.

If you've got another sticky trap, I'd put one in front of that notch in the left hand cushion. Mice do like to travel along walls, but there's no guarantee.

Birdshot comes in all pistol calibers with little noticeable difference in performance from .22 to 38 to 9 to 45.
Do pay attention that you don't buy 45 acp for a 45 Colt revolver and vice versa.
OOS at midway usa.

OP do be careful with mice. Set up traps, check them often, use rubber gloves during disposal.

I HEARTILY disagree.  .45 rat shot blew right through attic insulation and the layer of drywall under it and left blue marks all over my wife's tub.  I still get shit about that :-)  But the tree rat is dead...  22 rat shot doesn't do that.

That's great performance! What weight shot and brand did you use?
