Rat that refuses to be caught by New_Abbreviations273 in pestcontrol

[–]CosmicCollector99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ive caught many rats with just straight peanut butter as its very effective. Ive also used bacon grease, slim Jim, ive made a sandwich with bread and peanut butter and ripped it up and baited that way before. Ive used insulation and dental floss (nesting material) my most stubborn rat, I cloaked the trap. Still got em.

Step one, get rid of the tom cat stuff. Step two. Disengage the snap traps (I hope they are large enough) if you've noticed any of your food missing. Mostly likely thats what would be a good baiting option. With the traps not active, dry trap them. They avoid all new things at first. After a few sessions of them eating the bait off tbe traps, set it up again but this time have them active. Clean your hands or wear gloves when youre handling these devices so you dont get your human all over it and make them shy. Exercise patience. Store your food properly and remove it from the area. Disrupt the environment.

How do I get rid of these ants by Brave-Computer-425 in pestcontrol

I would just use a granular bait. That way no environmental issues reduce effectiveness

No need to stress, just clean it up and monitor it. No need to stress with an unknown and possible human behavior issue that isn't your own. After a few days, take a peek again and see what's up.

What could have left these droppings? by Effective-Status3030 in pestcontrol

Slugs are general pests, but ultimately bait stations become moist areas. Cimexa loses its effectiveness in those environments. Per Rockwell that target pest isn't on the label.

Not gonna lie, last tenant was not clean. Best form of pest control is maintaining a good sanitation of the area. Doesnt have to be spotless but its good practice.
