Actually yeah, get a ferret. I used to keep a few of them and the first one I got as an adult was evil! and I mean evil! This thing went for my dog (Big german shepard)
Kept 2 more which were hand tamed, one all white and another pole cat.

Perhabs you could give them away after the job is done, but i doubt that as you gonna fall in love with them. Please get one....please.

I would suggest looking at gettin a pre-trained one as you dont want to let a ferret loose where theres an abundance of mice, you might not get rid of him
Just ask around some blokes in the pub if they know anyone who hunts with them.

KaHn said:Car battery,2x steal sheet metal, and some jump leads and rubber for insulating.
Place first sheet metal in loft at a convienet location, now place 4 rubber insulators down, place 2nd (hopefully smaller) sheet metal on these insulated rubber things.
Connect car battery to 2nd steel plate via jump leads
Place food in the centre of the 2 sheet metal.
listen for mouse exectuion music

Great idea use this one
My wife has just "ordered" 2 ferrets. I'm not looking forward to the stink - can't get them neutered until November due to them being too young (getting them as kits - or whatever young ferrets are called).
Will probably love them to bits though.
Echoing above, make sure you either raise them from being very young, or get a hand-tamed one. They are super vicious otherwise.

If you have a garden keep them in there untill they can be neutered, my 2nd was a pup (think thats what it is) and was so cute.

I live in an old building, and used to have an occasional rodent problem. I use a PestClear 2000 now and havent had any issues since. Its ultrasonic, and it also sends a pulse through the electrical wiring system, covers a fairly large area. It takes a week or so to have any real effect, but since then I have had no small furry guests.

Friend of mine suddenly started getting a rank smell from behind his electric cupboard a few weeks back, we though it was a dead animal or something similar. After a few days it got intolerable and he called somebody out to take a look. It turns out that every single electric fuse had burnt out at once, but somehow his flat was still getting power. Must have been a deathtrap.
The smell was burnt plastic btw
