Yes, I've trapped many a mouse in the house using peanutbutter! I just haven't figured out how to do it without getting the turtles.

BTW, I had a 5" snapper living in our family room several years ago. One night I came home and she wasn't in her "pond"! We looked all over the family room and couldn't find her. Finally my husband called for me from the kitchen. There in the middle of the floor was poor Snappy with her neck in the mouse trap! She must have crawled behind the frig, got snapped and managed to crawl to the middle of the floor. I was almost in tears as I lifted the bar of the trap. Imagine my surpise when her neck was free and she blythly crawled away! lol! I put her back in her pond and she was fine!!
