You could use a 'humane' trap.

Having said that I caught mine during a cold snap. They seemed a little slow in the morning, looked to be soaking in their own sweat and piss - must be distressing to be stuck in a trap for hours. Then got dumped in a field in the middle of nowhere. Lots of folks said, they’ll be fine, but I dunno.
Traditional trap is cheap, quick and effective.
For real sadists there are the various versions of the DIY water trap. Though you can make a ‘humane’ version with just enough water to stop em jumping out of the bucket but not enough to drown em.
