same thread in chat until I remembered this one sorry

Anyone care to tell me what works best or even which trap is best for them?

they are back and cockily strolling around the kitchen (and living room) despite 4 traps
they really annoy me and I have to wear shoes and am avoiding the kitchen!

When we once had mice, the person who sold DH the traps recommended bits of Mars bar.

Peanut butter.

Would never share chocolate, am it has even been suggested.

I have been known to hide in the utility room when rumbled by children whilst I am having sneaky chocolate fix in the kitchen
