Mice restraining

Ok, I've got to do a "protocol for restraint of animals during examination"
I've done dogs, cats, gerbils, hamsters and guinea pigs but now I'm on mice
Anyone know how to restrain a mouse??

No clue. I have trouble restraining even a toy poodle with my "man hands".

Mice are small rodents that are hard to grasp. Care should be taken to avoid getting bit or causing harm to the animal. One method of moving mice from one cage to another is by grasping the skin behind the neck with a pair of forceps. When using this method be careful not to grasp too hard. Restraining the mouse can be done by grasping the base of the tail with one hand and with the other grasp the loose skin behind its neck. Take extra precaution to avoid getting bitten. When you have a firm grasp you may secure the tail in the same hand you have the scruff in to accomplish a one handed restraint. Care should be taken not to excite any of these animals. Slow deliberate movements will make the job of restraining much easier. Noise should also be kept to a minimum.
