I take this as a pretty good sign they are eating it dont you? The Norway rats seem to be a little harder to get rid of though. [Reply]   [No Email]

The following has been inadvertentley tested and is guaranteed to work. -Step one go fishing and when you return leave a bailing bucket [ice cream pail] half full of water in your boat. -Step two forget that you left your extra bait/minnows in the bucket. -Step three leave the boat parked in the garage for a week in 90 degree weather and you will effectivley trap every mouse you didn't know existed in the shop. -Step four once you get past the gagging and manage to dump the bucket outside your mouse problem will be over.

I use peanut butter, pop cans and a little antifreeze. I got 25 mice this winter out of just one building. Changed roller to a 1/2 gallon plastic bottle about 4 inches in diameter and 10 inches long. Bucket is locked up so other animals can't get to the antifreeze. [Reply]  [No Email]

Yes use peanut butter on traps. Nuts are natural, no matter if in butter form or as seed. It gives off an odor and really does not dry out very fast. Cheese is not found in nature, it will dry out and the ants will carry it off. Remember....the second mouse gets the bait! [Reply]  [No Email]

Far more successful than Decon, Tom Cat and others I have tried. And yes, peanut butter is rodent bait NO 1. [Reply]  [No Email]

They eventually disappear and I hardly ever see a mouse. Trapped one rat in the past few years so I think the blocks are working. [Reply]  [No Email]

I also find them in the middle of the floor, just couldn't make it to the tractor. We have some weasels around, don't know if they will eat the bait or not, but they are supposed to eat mice.
