I have meeces in the house, and I do not particularly want meeces in the

they come out to play late at night, but it is not cold outside and I
feel they would be better off with more fresh air.

I do not want to kill said meeces, and I'm not sure I fancy coming down
in the morning to have to remove them from sticky wotnots on the
skirting board (always assuming I could get to the skirting board), so I
want to know whether those sonic thingummies work. You know the ones,
they're supposed to emit an excrutiatingly high pitched swissle, and the
meeces are supposed to pack their bags and move on to pastures new. Or
something.

So, what do you think? Do they work, or would I be wasting my money?
Have any of you got any other humane ideas for gently evicting meeces
from houses?

Wikipedia has two sorts of meecetrap :

The cage looks good.........you could collect them all up and take them
round to the MiL's :~))

We've got one of them (the second picture down). They are excellent. We
caught about twenty of them that way a couple of years ago and released
them into our barn where they kept the sheep warm.
