Go to THE hardware store in Zihua on Calle Cuauhtémoc (middle of the block). I tried the sticky stuff several times, didn't work. Tried the screen cage, released them; they found their way back. The old-fashioned kind, with a little peanut butter, did the trick... three times; Dad, Mom and child. When my neighbors saw the results, they all wanted to borrow my trap; we no longer have mice/rats in our complex. Happy Hunting!

Thank you, I got them!

Thank you very much!
I will do that today.
FYI, we tried Peanut Butter as a bait and it took no time at all before a hoard of ants found it.
Well Duh... that's why we keep peanut butter in the fridge.

I was just wondering, do they make the bells for mosquitoes and Cockroaches too?

Just cockroaches, the ones for the mosquitos are so small even the other mosquitos can't hear them.

Now think of what we would be missing if we all stayed on topic!

Central Mercado... Both snap and cage traps, very cheap. On the side by Benito Juarez.

I looked there yesterday, he had the cage trap but no snap.
I didn't see anybody else with them but I'm horrible at finding things.

Here is some Ratt

Well, I guess I trap them out of season in Okanagan Falls. LOL...
Rats are disease carrying vermin and I kill every one I find.
Having known 2 people that have died horrible deaths from hantavirus, I give them no mercy.
Not to mention the damage they cause and the costs involved.

Jeez people, they are Rats not Labradors.
I also indiscriminately kill literally millions of Ants, Roaches, Mice, Hornets, Mosquitoes etc... every year.

Victor brand but made of hard plastic

If a rat had a choice, I suspect it would prefer having its neck broken in a trap, rather than being eaten alive by a cat.

2000 rats surveyed agreed with this.

The lesser of two evils is still not a great choice, but yeah, I'm with you. Why not simply have a cat?

Where there's one rat there are usually a few dozen more. They will avoid the cat altogether and go back to the woods where hopefully a nice snake or raptor bird will find them.

The Rat enters the house nightly and defecates / urinates on the contents of the linen closets. I did see it running across the Tereza wall at first light but that's about it.
The owner wants to put out poison, I thought killing one Rat was better than introducing poison into a food chain.
