I’ve been fine-tuning my rodent baiting strategy lately and wanted to share a recent success. Using a combination of snap traps and bait stations has really increased my catch rate, especially in high-traffic areas. What techniques have you found effective in your own practice?
I’ve had good luck placing bait stations near surfaces that show signs of gnawing, like baseboards or under sinks. It seems to lure them in more effectively. Have you noticed any patterns where your bait stations perform best?
I’ve noticed that using a blend of different baits can increase effectiveness too; peanut butter and oats seem to be a hit! It’s like a buffet for rodents. Have you tried mixing baits or just sticking with one type?
I’ve found that adding a small amount of bacon grease to the bait can entice even the pickiest of rodents — it’s perfect for those high-traffic areas you mentioned. Have you tried any unconventional baits like that before?
I’ve had success using smaller, targeted bait placements in those high-traffic areas, like right where you’ve spotted signs of gnawing. It pulls them in faster than a general scatter. Have you considered adjusting the bait quantity to reflect the rodent activity level?
