Random Jabber Jibber thread

Son found a rat trapped by two feet in the trap in the garage, beginning to wonder if I need to replace the traps so they will operate properly. Had him fill a bucket with water and dispatched the vermin in it. Reset the trap and tied the wire attached to it to the dolly to keep it from running away.
Buy or make a 5 gallon bucket trap - fill 1/3 with water & smear peanut butter above the tongue of the trap. No fuss, no muss & you can catch multiple critters & dispose of the cadavers at your leisure.
 
They work great, I've got one in the metal barn we keep the tractors & my boat in - I scoop out 2 or 3 a trip then it's good to go & you don't even have to replenish the bait.

Link is in my upper post for what I use.
Rv plumbing antifreeze - so they don't stink if left unchecked for a while.

Wire through a pill bottle, with pb smeared on it, rotates and gravity does the rest. Mice mainly, no rats here.
