If you want 'the business' then a longworth small mammal trap is the answer.
I did fine with something like this: https://www.espares.co.uk/product/es1642922?
However I think we were mainly getting field/wood mice ventureing into our house. Once we caught what I thought was a house mouse and it rattled the thing so hard it escaped. Then when I caught it again, it chewed it's way out of a recycling box.

We have two like (but not identical to) this: https://www.diy.com/departments/pack-of-2-indoor-outdoor-small-humane-mice-mouse-rat-rodent-trap-catcher-cage/5021196016670_BQ.prd
I'm going to try gluing a penny or two to the trigger pad today, because we've suspiciously never caught a solo mouse. The two I caught together were tiny. Your house mouse sounds terrifying - like one of those angry young men on steroids who scream at you from a BMW 1 Series.

Anyone have tips on humane traps? So far I've only caught two mice, and they were in the same trap at the same time - I'm thinking maybe they're only sensitive enough to go off when two are standing on the trigger at once.
