LOL That is similar to what we did to catch mice up at the camp in Maine. But instead of smearing the peanut butter on the inside of the bucket we used a can strung length wise on a piece of coat hanger. We would smear the peanut butter all over the can (lightly) and wait. A couple of times a night you'd hear a mouse who went swimming when he jumped from the ramp to the can in the middle of the bucket. Once it hit the can it would spin and drop the mouse to its watery grave
