rat traps


Recommended Posts


Just wondering if anyone can help me. I've ordered a rat trap and have never used one before. What is the best food to use to lure the rat? Where is it best to place a trap?
Alright Spep1, rats are noturiously hard to catch, clever feckers. They are easier to catch near populated areas as apposed to the countryside as they are not so wary but try and set traps near where you know they are feeding. They like lots of things but I found meat stuffs are good and peanut butter has worked well but now I am in the countryside the best I have had work is sunflower hearts and placed near my bird feeders. And to be honest the most I have caught is with an empty trap (the multi live trap) they go in there just out of curiosity. I set a trap yesterday (a live single catch trap with a one way trap door for more captives)with a peice of rabbit lung near a wood pile of mine only because my dogs flushed two yesterday afternoon, I dont hold much hope though.
