A large bowl and some peanut oil make a perfect live mousetrap

Shawn Woods was able to catch seven mice in one night with a large bowl and some food-grade oil.

He was replicating a classic YouTube video of someone who accidentally caught three mice by leaving some leftover oil out in a mixing bowl.

Turns out it wasn't a hoax. As far as the seven Shawn caught, they are cleaned up for use in other live trap demonstrations on his channel.
