Seriously..chocolate spread or Nutella is the way forward.

Because it is sticky they really have to work at getting the last of it. I have yet to find an empty trap in the house, its either a very very dead mouse or the spread is untouched.

We have blacj plastic traps that have a serated edge on the "snapping" bit and a wee yellow cup where you put the bait. Seem to be the best we have found.

Not seen them Rob, I've not tried chocolate spread but Jam & bread gets lifted, strawberry jam works O.K but Jam goes off too quick.  They don't seem too fond of raspberry jam!

... and I think, judging by the quality of recent posts on this forum, that we all really, really need to get out fishing more... it's gonna be a long winter!

No, a Chinese test programme found that under the duress of many mouse kills bamboo fractures and you get split cane.......  :z7 :grin

Class.  :z4

I don't think the mouse was drunk Ben, it had the coordination to lift two baited traps, then went all wobbly!

Now on the hunt for Rob's black traps - v.stylish!

I see we both have friends in "high places"  :z7
Didn't think anyone supported Dumbarton though..

Nice! But if the bamboo traps are of the "wangy noodle" variety they wouldn't kill the rodent  :z7
