I think that if you have mice indoors traps are definitely better than poison. It kills the mice quickly and you can see the evidence and remove it right away instead of having dead rodents inside of your walls.
Last year I had mice in my basement for the first time ever. I put out some snap traps and caught 6 of them. 4 were field mice but 2 of them were deer mice. I have not had a problem since then.
I would not use snap traps outdoors unless they are inside of a box because other animals can step on them or get them snapped on their nose from sniffing the bait.
