If you're really interested in catching it and not killing it, it might be a better idea to use something other than food in your trap. Cheese, peanut butter and suchlike can be eaten by other critters (insects, etc.) - not necessarily your mouse. Try using a bit of styrofoam or something similar that the mouse will collect to build/line its nest with. You may be surprised by the results.

Still, I think a cat is the all-time best mouser. Great pets.
