Hi All,
I set up a bait station for night hunting Roof Rats. It’s in a nice safe spot to take a shot at them but it’s not positioned directly on one of their main routes. Their main pathways are on top of the chain link fence on either side of my property, not ideal for a safe shot. I’ve set up snapper traps with peanut butter, sardines, pop tarts, dog food, peanuts, little pieces of various fruit, and had varying luck. It seems like they go for it one day then are done with it. I also wash the traps and wear gloves so I don’t get my smell on them.
Anyway, I’m trying to draw them to a bait station to shoot them at and wondering if anyone has a “magic bait” for these California Roof Rats. Thanks
