Animal loving designer Roger Arquer decided to create a series of [conceptual mousetraps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thanos-home) which he firmly states are to catch, and not to kill. There are four traps in total, all made from [everyday household objects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-terrarium) that your average house mice would be familiar with.

One of the concepts is a Mouse in a Pint, and I have to say, the model mouse looks fairly relaxed in his new cell, so I’m not concerned for his wellness at all!
