I like the snap traps myself. There’s something about hearing them go….POP. You know you got one. 😁

Been using cake stuff in cases when we can find it around here.

So far there has been no stink from those that have eaten of that green cube.

It's apparent y'all haven't been around mice palaces. We had a duck camp that had thousands in it. So many, you could stomp 10-12 a night of you weren't drinking heavily.

I do not understand the "too small to set off traps" bit. I use Victor rat traps out in the woodshed and catch mice with them all the time.

Not only peanut butter, but pinch a raisin on that trigger, kinda mash it into the cutouts, then spread peanut butter on that. Works really good it seems if the raisin gets dried out and hard as the little bastids have to work at it, no licking it off the trigger.

And I use a product called RatX and MouseX, kills mice and rats without harming other things..........supposedly.

And Shake Away or Fresh Cab repellent. Especially under vehicle hoods, seems to work pretty well in the woodshed too as I only catch a few mice every winter now.

Tomcat brand pellets work well for me, but they will die and stink. Be careful if you have pets that might eat them.

The spinning wheel of death bucket trap works well and use antifeeze in the bottom to embalm them and stop stink. Use soapy water or ??? if you have pets around that may drink the antifreeze.

I may make a bunch of "walk the plank" traps since the bucket lids get thrown, but they may block pets from getting at the antifreeze.

Gotta use glycol antifreeze and not RV stuff.

If its educated to traps Mix up Jiffy Mix sweet cornbread Mix 50/50 with plaster of Paris.

Put a shallow pan of water nearby.

Don't let dogs or cats get it.

OTOH, let the cats get it. wink

Bucket traps are effective. Use antifreeze and they work all year round in unattended buildings.

The little green blocks you get at tractor supply work better if you put out a pan of water for the little critters

I use a combination of Jiffy cornbread mix (with honey) and equal part of baking soda. Mix them up and put into a container that a mouse can get into. Mice can't fart and the baking soda will wreck their insides. I've used it in my barn and ranch house with good success.


There are 2 rules to success:

1. Never tell everything that you know.

For snap traps, I take a cracker and break off a piece about 1/2 - 3/4”. Then I shape that piece into an hourglass and tie it to the trigger with a bit of peanut butter on it. It you tie the cracker piece to the trigger they can’t pull it off without triggering the trap.
