Well I woke up this morning, and started the coffee in the kitchen. As I stood there grinding the beans, ,I look down, and there it was. Staring right back at me. Ears all perked up, its little wiskered nose twitching. I grabbed the cast iron, and before I could smash em. It bolted to the dryer in the laundry room. Little sh*t is getting in and out threw the exhaust vent. 
So what should I do? I have a Gamo Viper Express, seems to be my best option for indoor shooting, without causing any damage. Should I block off the dryer vent outside, or should i let the mice put the word out, that there is a place to go and have fresh targets all winter?
 
You need to mount a WWI machine gun timing mechanism and adjust it to drop the superglue at the precise moment it leaves the barrel. I know where there is a Sopwith Camel parts store, and you can get the timer cheap. Now to get an automatic so you can really paste the evil little buggers. You could sling the gun on bungee cords in the kitchen like the helicopter door gunners. Rube Goldberg lives again...............

True story: I had a similar situation last winter and killed the little turd with my .45 Texan inside the house. 

WITH AN EMPTY CHAMBER AND DRY FIRE BLAST. Range was about 6 inches. Not exactly an epic hunt, but who else can say they killed a mouse with a big bore air rifle? Haha. 

Otherwise, I suggest the usual trap and peanut butter. They can’t resist..

Now, I’m as addicted to airguns as anyone here, but seriously, have you ever heard of Victor?

sticky traps are best inside the house and garage. i live in the country and keep two - four in the garage at all times.
you can also seal up the outside of your house with these weep hole covers

other non-rectangular openings can be stuffed with steel wool, like the piping for AC.

careful where you shoot inside the house, wouldn't want to punch a hole in water pipe over a little deer mouse.

Kind of like using a "Pumpkin" cannon on a deer. lol

If you want some real fun then one of those Harbor Freight Electric Tennis rackets with the switch taped on laid on the floor with a milk jug cap filled with peanut butter in the middle of the "electric grid" will get a mouses attention when he enters the "matrix". ;)
