In most cases, mice like to run along floor wall junctions instead of out in the open. I have purchased some "catch all" traps from EcoLab or other Pest Control companies. This look like tin boxes and should be placed around doors where mice would enter. The mouse enters, but can not leave. Recommend checking at least 1 per week - dump out dead mice and replace trap. You can place several in your garage, but always make sure the enter hole is placed right up against the wall and the trap always remains right up next to the wall.

Look in your garage and see if there is anything there to attract the mice. Also, see if there are any opening that a mouse might enter and seal. A common house mouse or field mouse needs the size of a number 2 pencil to gain access. Check all doors and make sure they are sealed well and close doors when possible.

Hope that helps.
