Already have it on the trap, rat still isn't interested. it just keeps crawling around my kitchen underneath the cupboards....I'm hoping that it will become hungry and come out to the peanut butter:p

'chinese' flour (in the small clear plastic bags) + sealed box with only one opening with a sticky pad welcome mat.

Worked for me. Though it was a little mouse, not a rat. Place it along the wall where the fucker normally runs about.

2 N R had this tip to give yesterday

Did you make sure to turn off the lights? I think it might be afraid to come out to get your bait if it thinks you're sitting there waiting to catch it. Cat's are pussies (pun intended) find a friend who has a snake

Call it a "noob" and watch RS ridicule it out of your house.

TheNewGirl 11-09-2010 08:05 AM

Glass cats work really well, I've used them before. They're a trap you bait. The rat can get in but can't get out again.

A real cat though is the best rat trap ever. Just... they tend to bring them to you when they're done with them.

Put your COD skills to use:

get a cat then a eagle to take the cat out then a gun to take the eagle out

InvisibleSoul 11-09-2010 09:13 AM

A few years back, my mother-in-law's place had a bunch of mice find its way in somehow... chewed a small hole through the wall to get in and out... we put out a whole bunch of sticky paper and glue traps around the edges of the room, and it was partially effective. Caught some of them... like 3-4, but definitely not all. I think one of them managed to free itself from the paper, but I don't think it chewed its leg off to do it.

Psykopathik 11-09-2010 10:20 AM

just a note re peanut butter as bait. dont use too much on sticky traps as the oils reduce the effectiveness of the glue.

use PB to get gum outta your hair. :D then get a fat kid to get the PB outta your hair. Then get a bear to remove the fat kid.

Wouldnt it be easier to shoot a cat than an eagle?

get a cat,
then get a dog for the cat,
then get an elephant for the dog,
then get a mice for the elephant.

you can disguise like a rat, introduce yourself to him, gain his trust, and kill him when you find the opportunity

dogeatcookie 11-09-2010 11:17 AM

OK upon closer examination it's a mouse, which is sorta a relieve, lol. 2 traps last night, one with the water bucket, one snap trap. Left a small trail of cheese leading to the bucket trap with peanut butter, but the mouse only ate the cheese and did not get into the trap... gonna go out and buy some more traps!

GLOW 11-09-2010 11:43 AM

sticky paper works well, so does the black box that traps them in and electricutes them (assuming it's a small mouse). coworker did the bucket trick and caught a lot, but if you dont clean it out it stinks that water is gross. he used a broom stick and empty toilet paper roll as the means to give them the slip.

Death2Theft 11-09-2010 11:54 AM

I hear used condoms work great they go in for the jizz and then suffocate like a plastic bag as it uses up all the air while it's inside and tries to find it's way out.

dont get a sticky trap man, so cruel.....find a more humane way to catch it and then release it somewhere far away. What if someone put you into a tube of glue? wouldnt feel too good. Just because its a rodent doesnt mean it doesnt feel pain.
