I’ve been tackling a rodent issue at a client’s home and had great success with snap traps recently… Setting them along known pathways and using peanut butter as bait has consistently yielded results. Anyone else had similar experiences or tips to share?
I’ve had luck with snap traps too, but I found adding a little cotton ball soaked in vanilla extract can attract them better… Just like bringing dessert to the party, right? Have you tried any other baits besides peanut butter?
Using peanut butter’s a solid choice for bait, but I’d suggest trying some sunflower seeds too — they can be pretty irresistible. It’s all about finding what works best for your area, right; have you noticed any particular times when the traps seem to work better? @aliyah71.
Setting traps along pathways is key, but I’ve had some luck with using dried fruit as bait too — it really seems to catch their attention. Just a thought! Also, have you considered putting some traps in the attic?
But you might want to try using a mix of bait; I’ve heard that a bit of bacon can be quite the crowd-pleaser. It’s like throwing a BBQ for your unwelcome guests! @jameson_fly, have you ever mixed different baits to see what works best?
I totally relate to the struggles with these little critters! I’ve found that mixing in a bit of chocolate with your usual bait can really entice them. It’s worked wonders for me in the past.
I hear ya! Trapping these little nuisances is such a pain, right? Have you ever tried adding a touch of cinnamon to your peanut butter?
It’s great to hear you’ve had success with snap traps! I’ve had some luck using a combination of peanut butter and a sprinkle of oats; it seems to catch their attention. If nothing else works, maybe check out Find Rodent Exterminators: Rodent Control Help for more tips.
