FINALLY, a F'in Aye better mousetrap. Death Machine

[Rusty Heap]

Please buy a half dozen more of these traps, Lowes?
I think this is victim number 7 or 8 in 4 or 5 day period.

I’m painting some Kill marks on shop. Death death death death.

Lethal

F ing awesome

[flipper35]

We use the black ones.

[Tervuren]

Are you blocking it so that the front is the only approach?

It will help insure a neck/chest shot and an easier death than say, a partial shoulder or hip shot.

[unclebilly]

What are you doing with your kills? Are you making Chinese food?

[Gogar]

Mmmmm dericious

[jwasbury]

I have great success with the traditional snap traps baited with peanut butter.

[Arizona_928]

I've caught 5 on a sticky pad before.

No I did not light them on fire....

#Me too.

Thumbnail grew back every time.

Dave! You're back! Glad to see you got your little misunderstanding with the mods cleared up. We would be lost without your gun and boobies videos.

*Sigh* Have I taught you nothing, young grasshopper? It is not the Jedi way to lay traps, we are hunters! Where is that air rifle on which I so carefully, patiently, nurtured your skills (and spent your money)? David, David, David - walk away from the traps... pick up the air rifle... feel the force...

[Jolly Amaranto]

I was having trouble keeping this one on the grill to roast him.

[cabmandone]

Love those traps! Just watch your fingers those thing have a hair trigger.

Oh and Jolly... "Kill it with fire!"

[Shaun @ Tru6]

Those traps are great. A little peanut butter and lots of dead mice.

[Tervuren]

I have not had success with peanut butter, maybe it is because I use the natural stuff without added sugar.

I use a piece of unsugared unsulfured dried papaya attached so they can't just pull it off and run.

The mice around here have a sweet tooth just like me.

I've had good results from the traditional spring trap and cheddar cheese. Peanut butter hasn't worked for me. The key is to position the trap so that they have to approach it from the business end.

[stomachmonkey]

Meh.

I have 4 cats inside.

We have stray cats that pop up and hang around from time to time.

I supplement their food supply during winter to keep them around.

My neighbors have started to contribute to my stray cat food budget because when the cats are around their traps are noticeably emptier.

Snickers bar is my goto bait.

[MBAtarga]

My secret recipe is peanut butter with a Crunchy style Cheeto stuck right on top. I actually think they can small the Cheeto from afar! A Nacho Cheese Dorito crumb will do the trick as well.

Question about mouse traps - do you guys reuse 'em? Or do you dispose of the weapon and the decedent simultaneously?

I once read on the internet that fresh traps increase the kill factor.

What a waste of a perfectly good candy (unless you feel that the mice are acting like divas?)

One and done. The spring traps are cheap and it is easier to dispose of the cadaver by just tossing the whole thing in the trash. Why do I want to handle and re-bait the thing after it has had a disease ridden dead rodent on it?

[RKDinOKC]

Don't need no stinking traps. Great Horned Owls roost atop the cottonwood tree in my back yard.

Never seen a mouse but put a couple sticky traps out for good measure. All I caught was the stupid house cat...twice in the same place. It was actually hilarious.
