I've found evidence of a mouse in my office. So I setup a trap for the little gray rodent. You will notice a small white tube near the center of the screen. At the end of this tube was some food. When the mouse crawls through the tube, the tube tipped over, and drop into the trash can below.

I pointed an IR camera at the trap. Yes its upside down. The camera is designed to mounted to the ceiling.

The trap worked great, only my trash can wasn't tall enough the mouse escaped.

This video is a video of a video, the DVR we are using has a non-standard video type that cannot be converted, so I used my Kodak camera to do a screen grab.

I got the idea for the trap from: "How to catch a mouse without a mousetrap" http://glass.typepad.com/journal/2005/09/how_to_catch_a_.html
