There is a mouse in our house.

A moment ago, it dashed across the living room floor, paused underneath the coffee table, and then fled under the couch.

I am alone with this mouse.

I foresee a trip to the hardware store this afternoon.

We had mice at our old place, and had pretty good luck with cheap (like $5) no kill traps.  Peanut butter was the key.

You might look around the house for places where the mouse got in ... we used steel wool to plug our holes and stopped seeing mice.

Good luck!

We’re not sure where the mice are coming in, and I doubt anyone has the motivation to find out. Two mice have drowned recently (in the kitchen, under the sink, where we have a bowl that catches water dripping from the pipe). This latest one seems to have been living under the fireplace, and it may have been the one to have met its final fate sometime Friday night. No sightings since.

I don’t like having them around, but they don’t freak me out. Except when I found the first drowned mouse.
