However in 2010, there were some reports that hunters were successful attracting this mouse after switching to [[SUPER brie+|SUPER|brie+]] cheese. In 2011, New Years mice were found to be especially attracted to [[Festive Feta]] cheese, to the point that any other kind of cheese simply would not suffice.  In 2013, New Years mice were attracted to all cheese, and available in all stages.
 
 
 
== Hunting Strategy ==
 
In 2010 and 2011, [[Firecracker Charm]]s or [[Nitropop Charm]]s had to be armed in order to attract this mouse.  In 2013, they were available using any charm.
