The problem with poison is that they die somewhere (usually inaccessible) and then rot and stink for ages.
This. My neighbours had a mouse infestation, poisoned them, and several of them died in my fucking kitchen walls. All because they had a filthy kitchen. Flats too, so no lawns to hammer sausages into.
The smell lasts about a year in our experience.

How many have you trapped? Whenever I have had problems I seem to stop catching after the 6th.
