im having good results with corn on the cob as well as chocolate at the moment. the only prob with choc is you have to warm it first to get the pin through it.this i do buy sucking it first,only prob is once its in me gob the tree rats can get fecked,its mine and im eating it

 

the traps i use are home made with an s shaped pin for the bait which hangs,a treadle springs the trap. just in case people were wondering
