stubby 175 Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 in the area your setting the trap, what are they eating there?, as if it was a chicken run, thus eating pellets, you'd sweep up spilt pellets and bait trap with these if just trying to catch in a rat run, try peanut butter, garlic sausage, snickers bar Link to post Share on other sites
mark northern ireland 0 Posted November 1, 2009 Report Share Posted November 1, 2009 can anyone give me a bit of advice on how to set a live rat trap as ive tried but never seem to catch much what would be the best bait etc By far the best bait to catch a rat is believe it or not a live mouse rodents are teritorial, if you have mice you dont have rats. I catch up live mice in very cheap live catch traps slip them into those rat traps that look like lobster pots and always get a rat or two the next morning never fails.
