B) I used those, and they are HORRIBLE!!!! In my case, I had just tiny little Beatrix Potter type mice who looked up at me with big, sad eyes. I couldn't find anything to pick it up with, so I ended up using silver pastry tongs to pick up the darn thing, put it in a bag and tried to suffocate it. (My fiance says he would have paid very real money to see me do this!) Anyhow, I had to get him to come over and drown the poor thing so he wouldn't suffer.
I hate those slam-bang traps, but they really are more humane. Especially the ones that you don't even have to see the little mousey body afterwards. blech.

This is how you should use a glue trap. When the mouse is stuck, you smash it with a something big and heavy like a telephone book. I know it is easier said than done, but that's what the instruction said.
I hope that you threw out the pastry tongs after you used them on a mouse.
This thread is grossing me out now.
