Mice and Mopars

Is this in a building? Don't load those spring traps up. Press the bait into the holes so they have to dig for it. I use peanuts. My neighbor superglues a sugar baby to his traps. Last forever and doesn't go rancid. Peanuts work good too.

Agreed. In the “shep” I use the old-style wood traps with the metal mechanism, and peanuts wedged between two parts of the mechanism. Then I spread a little peanut butter on top, so if the licking doesn’t do it (peanut butter), the tugging of the peanut sure as heck does! Don’t get a lot of “empties” that need to be re-bated this way, either.
