I don't know what repels them, but the superintendent of my building told
me that when he catches a mouse, he doesn't get rid of it right a way but
instead leaves it in the cage so that its chirping will attract other mice
that will also fall into the trap. So, you might try first catching a mouse,
making a tape recording of its chirping, and then use the tape to lead them
outside the building.
