Mice don't like cheese.

This is a myth full of holes.  Ralph Emerson, the 19th century American writer once wrote, "If you invent a better mousetrap the world will beat a path to your door," however, he failed to mention anything about cheese.  According to researchers who obviously had nothing of greater importance to do, declared that the universal belief that the only way to lure a mouse to its death is by using a potent and smelly cheese, preferably cheddar or Swiss is a complete fallacy.  After this revelation, it is no wonder Tom never succeeded at catching Jerry.  So, for any of you with a serious mouse infestation a prime substitute for savory cheese would be the complete opposite, sugary chocolate - yes it seems that "chocoholics" exist in every shape and form.
