I once trapped a mouse using a cheese under a glass bowl, where the glass bowl was propped up by a matchstick with a thread attached to the cheese. Proper Tom and Jerry style. It worked, after several attempts, but did amputate the end of the mouse's tail. Oops. But at least the mouse survived (and was released a safe distance away).
