Use peanut butter on the tripping mechanism. Its easier to apply and cheaper, and the varmint will eat until the trap goes off. The dogma associated with cheese and mice is just that.

The trick is to use a very small amount of cheese, ~= 4 mm^3, and sticky tape it to the trap, with just the edge of cheese sticking out, so that they can smell it. That way, the mouse has to fight with the trap to get at the cheese, and the struggle sets off the trap. Regards, Robin van Spaandonk local asymmetry = temporary success
