Shotgun shells full of rocksalt? Turn them into paste!
Or make some kind of anti-mouse robot. Outta those programmable lego kits you can buy. Have it use a touch sensor, so when the mouse climbs into the box part of the robot, it trips the censor, shutting the box and latching it shut. Then have it eject the box into a pile, and automatically lower down a fresh box! It's genius!

I caught a few with bacon in my snap traps, so don't totally write them off. Wrap it around the trigger so the little buggers have to really tug at it, then BAM, free snake meal.
Second, I also deployed a BB pistol. This stuns them pretty good, which then means you can deploy the Hammer. BB and Baseball bat accounted for quite a few. Commercial ratkillers usually carry a small airpistol to grease the little devils.
Failing the above, get a snake. They're kind of hard to get allergic to, and they do a fine job of snaffling rogue rodents.

This may sound obvious, but the best mouse trap is a <a href='http://www.ratemykitten.com/' target='_blank'>cat</a>. Other methods:<ul><li><a href='http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/1777712.stm' target='_blank'>large glass jar, chocolate biscuit crumbs and a ramp running to the lip of the receptacle</a></li><li><a href='http://www.halfbakery.com/idea/Mouse_20Trap' target='_blank'>pickle jar with vacuum cleaner hose</a></li></ul>
I think you should call them out. You know, insult there mother, tell them how dirty they are, how they are inbred and stuff. Make them want to fight you. Then challenge them to a fighting match.
Or you could could get in a motel, radiate anything that can be eaten, and have them die from radiation. That, or they mutate.
Electrify your fridge, cabinets and garbage can to get rid of those pesky Hive 1 rats. Alternatively, place a turret factory (electrified) with sentry turrets in your kitchen/eating area and leave many crumbs and morsels around until the mice come out and get nailed.
Seriously, though, just use the glue traps. No mess, no poison, and they work really well. Back in Brooklyn we used to catch a mouse a week, and my dad would just throw 'em down the incinerator chute still alive because it's pretty hard to pry them off of that glue.
I don't get humane traps. If you live in the suburbs, they're fine, but in the city they're just gonna come back or give someone else trouble. Might as well kill the disease bags.

You know what? All you peopel with unrealistic suggestions like "buy a gun!" and "Taser them!" aren't helping AT ALL. Seriously. The man is in need of help. I know exactly where you're coming from here, Cabewse, and I'll hook you up with the down low, as it were.
FIrst, set out a piece of cheese. Mice love cheese, so the mouse will attempt to eat the cheese. BUT, you've already thought ahead of the little bugger, and have touch sensitive pads placed all over the cheese, which has a transmitter on the inside. The moment the mouse touches the cheese, radio signals are sent up to your space station, which is in orbit around Jupiter. The space station fires a gigantic laser, that somehow makes a "KSCHHEWWWW!!!" sound WHILE IN THE VACUUM OF SPACE (that part is REALLY important), which then hits the White House. Luckily, noone is hurt, save for America's pride. So naturally, all the countries in the world launch nukes at each other. The world becomes a nuclear wasteland and voila! No more mice!
Like I said, it's really simple. I'm suprised no one's suggested it yet.

What does all this mean, you ask?
It's rather simple, really.

(On a serious note, call an exterminator.)
Step 2)hold hammer above your head
Step 3)stay very still
Step 4)dead mouses
