Okay... so this is definitely not really about pets, but there wasn't an appropriate category!
I have mice in my house. My fiancee is away for the weekend, and the mice are not going for the traps, even though they're baited with peanut butter.
I'm not scared of mice, but they are a pain in the butt, and they're dirty to boot.
How do I get rid of them, and keep them out of my house? If it makes any difference, I live in a semi-detached.
The other issue: cockroaches. We occasionally get little cockroaches, seemingly in spurts. Those, I can't handle. How do you keep them from coming into your home? Sealing everything is not an option... our home was built in the 1920s. (link)

Okay,
You're best bet might be to call an exterminator only because mice can build there nest inside the walls which will only make the problem become worse. Try baiting with graham crackers with a dab of peanut butter, There are also different types of mice traps you can buy. Cockroaches, Make sure there are no clothes in bundles, dishes in the sink, crumbs on the counters and if you do, Do not store paper or plastic bags in cupboards it will only cause insulation which attracks cockroaches. Call an exterminatior as it might be your best bet.
Good Luck

Thanks for the advice. We can't really afford an exterminator right now, so unfortunately that's not an option. We're also really clean, so we think that our neighbours are the reason for the cockroaches.
