I've had success with Twix bars and bacon rinds

i have always super glued my baits on i.e chocolate, dont know if anyone else does this or not because had alot bait pinched, but after the glue never seemed to fail so it worked for me. i have alot of success with peanut butter to.

Ham and brown sauce use something with a pungent smell

Rats get better fed than I do. Home made brown bread , Ham and brown sauce , Mars bars and peanut butter. Let me know the next time you're setting some traps I'll pop over for a quick snack.

 

Got 2 last week using just a slice of apple , also tried peanut butter as well in the past , and chocolate spread for a mouse that was doing my mums head in running about in her attic..

Peanut butter gets em every time for me buddy ! Like choc spread its naturally sticky and helps stick on trap !

We started using mouse traps with a depression in the pan and its ideal for filling with liquid choc spread
