I'd suggest getting a sachet or two of mouse poison & putting them
in your loft just in case there are more.

Trouble with poison is that a) it's not a particulary pleasant death
b) they'll die somewhere inaccessable to all but flys and smells...

Warfarin-based poisons are not particularly unpleasant. The victims just
get weaker and weaker and lapse into a coma.

The Warfarin tends to prevent the blood clotting, and the passage of
food down the gut abrades the villi (a design feature to allow nutrients
to be absorbed through the walls of the blood vessels) and the animal
loses blood internally, and weakens and dies. There is no pain involved.
