Some might consider it cheating to enter a mouse trap that is probably 95% not printed in the Mouse Get! challenge.  I disagree.

If your mouse trap requires anykind of bait/lure, then it’s not really 100% printed, is it? And, if it is 100% printed chances are a mouse isn’t going to be that interested.  My point is that once you deviate from a 100% printed mouse trap, we’re just quibbling about percentages. 1

Some use cheese to trap mice.  I’ve found peanut butter to be far more effective.  To extend the above thought further, if you’re using peanut butter (or cheese) – just how much can you use in the trap?  If you’re using a lot of peanut butter, why not the whole jar’s worth?  If you’re using an entire jar of peanut butter, why waste the jar itself?  Chances are you were going to throw the empty peanut butter jar away anyhow.

This isn’t so much cheating as it is…  recycling/repurposing. 2
