Cheese is typically purchased at the Cheese Shoppe, and is essential for arming your trap. The "special" cheeses SUPER|brie+ and Radioactive Blue are obtained through either donations to the MouseHunt developers or by imbuing other cheeses with potions. Different types of cheese have different odds of attracting a variety of mice to your trap. In general, a more expensive cheese will be better in attracting mice than less expensive varieties.

As you travel and move your trap to new locations, you may notice some cheese attracts specific breeds of mice more often than others. Although this will not always be obvious, observant hunters will benefit from studying the cheese preferences of different mice in different locations.

Standard cheese

Cheddar is rather poor at attracting most mice, however hunters may find success with this cheese when hunting the more frail breeds.
Marble offers a decent chance of attracting a variety of mice.
Swiss offers a good chance of attracting a variety of mice.
Brie offers a very good chance of attracting a variety of mice.
SUPER|brie+ has a 99% attraction rate for all Gnawnia mice, regardless of their preferences for other flavours.
Radioactive Blue cheese cannot be bought. It can only be obtained by imbuing Brie or SUPER|brie+ with a Radioactive Blue Cheese Curd Potion or Greater Radioactive Blue Cheese Curd Potion, which can be collected as loot in the Laboratory. Black Widow and Lycan mice are known to drop Radioactive Blue cheese when caught in the Mousoleum.
