Feeding caught mice

So where I live we have a mouse problem, and I was wondering how ok is it and/or any advice... Could I put out traps and catch mice to feed right to my snake?
 
I wouldn't. Wild-caught rodents are more than likely carrying internal and external parasites. You also don't know if they've ingested anything that may be toxic to your snakes.

Please don't. Besides the almost certainty of your pet contracting parasites, if any pesticides or poison is present in the rodent's systems your snake is in big trouble.
