How do you catch a tricky mouse?

We ended up with this family of mice a few months back, and we managed to catch most of them (which were just baby's). But there is this one mouse that we can't seems to catch, it seems that it is the last mouse we have but no matter how many traps and sticky traps we use, and were we put them, this mouse can't be caught. Any ideas?

    put poisioned bread inside walls then remove it after some time, or my uncle used to do this, he had a tall buket but easy to get up to then a wire across the bucket, push a used unwashed popcan through the wire so it is set in the middle, then smother the can in peanut butter and slices of sufar treats in the can, so when the mouse goes onto the wire of popcan it willl roll and the mouse will fall into the bucket

    Watch "mouse hunt" movie it will tell you how. You could try live traps with peanut butter. If your trying to be humane don't use sticky traps. Imagine being glued to a board stretched out and twisted for days while you starved to death or suffocated yourself with your own skin by getting glued to tight! Use regular traps or live traps.
