Non-lethal mousetrap

Via MAKE Magazine, a better mousetrap:

Using everyday household objects like a clear drinking glass, metal springs, paper clips, and a metal nut, this "friendlier" mousetrap won't kill off your rodent infestation, but instead will just provide an easy way for you to transport them outside. The designer's intent is that you can re-use the objects after you catch the mouse. I think I would probably wash them a few hundred times first.

I much prefer this method. I don't kill any pests that I find; instead I usually pick them up and place them outside, and then try to find and eliminate the reason they came in in the first place so that they don't return.
