Prior to getting cats... I got to the point of setting up a garbage can each night with a couple pieces of kibble in the bottom, and a wood ramp. Mice march up, fall in, can't get out. Next morning the previous night's dishwater goes in the garbage can, can gets emptied out at the woodline. I'd regularly get 2-5 mice per night! So I got a free Mom & Daughter. They did a real good job, then Daughter went out one day and refused to come in and became coyote food eventually. Mom still catches, not as quick. So I supplement Mother cat with a little plastic container (the very, very small shot glass sized Gladware ones) with a few mothballs -- tuck them in the back of my kitchen drawers. Keeps the mice out of them. I still see the occasional mouse poop on the stove or counter, especially if I left a dirty frying pan or whatever out. Followed a couple days later by a dead mouse on the kitchen floor :) Momma will get the mouse, she's just no kitten anymore.
