Trapping rodents live then you have to either release them smack them in the head with something or toss them in the trash and let them die of starvation and dehydration.
Oh yeah--check around your house to see how they're getting in and plug up that hole!!

Trap a mouse.
Give the mouse to the cat.
The cat will not take long to figure out what mice are good for.
You will have a mouser.(\__/)

Also, if the mother is a mouser, the kittens will be too if there are mice around when they are maturing.(\__/)

Any ideas? I'm all grossed out now.
If the mice living in your home are communist mice, bring in some capitalist cats. You will get results.A lot of Republicans are not racist, but a lot of racists are Republican.

However, unlike cats, snakes don't wee wee, IIRC. They don't stink as much, either.
As to your other point as long as the animal is house broken (which cat's pretty much instinctively are) I can't imagine why anybody could care less how many kinds of wastes they eliminate so long as they don't have to deal with it being spread around their house.
Snakes crapping everywhere will need to be dealt with. it will stink it will stain it will be ****ty and the animal crawling through it will probably smell pretty ****ty too.
No contest AFAICT.
