If you can put some powdered or finely crushed glass in the peanut butter, I hear it will eventually take out the ones that manage to get some of the PB without springin the trap.

Or aspirin, works on cats too.....

So they're already nice and spicy, just need a little batter.

I want to try that with a goat some day. It is said that if you feed them herbs and spices the flavour comes through the meat, should work with chillis too if you could get the stupid four legged lawn mowers to eat them!
 
mmmmmm...Habanero infused goat

NO luck so far...

the traps have been hanging from their chains the past two mornings...I think it was because the rain set them off...

will put peanut butter on them this morning and see if that gets any results...
 
You might want to wait until this evening. Rats are pretty much nocturnal and you don't want the peanut butter to dry out too much.
 
or move to another area where there is food and no danger...
 
I've never had any luck with bait on the traps. My best success has always been putting the traps in an area that will channel them over it. They seem to like places that allow them to get into/under quick cover. Basically all I do is put the trap between two items that'll force them to go a different route into the open or over the trap if they want to move between cover and the desired areas.
 
AJ, I could pack up my sniper rifle and camp out in your pepper forest for a day or 2. All I ask is you let me eat peppers all day and feed me plenty of beer after I eliminate them b*stereds.
 
AJ ,

I tie string tightly to the part you put the bate on with two little tails coming off the knot from underneath. I use peanut butter and rub it in. Cheese will work. The string makes them pull on it instead of just lightly licking the bait off. I also hose off the trap if there's blood on it. Don't know if they smell the blood and care , just something Granny did.

Peace & Whack 'em good !!

going to check the traps as soon as it gets daylight (bout 30 minutes)..

Pf...I like the idea of the sniper rifle, but you can use my pellet gun and yes, you can eat peppers off the vine and I WILL provide the bear...heck, I will even set up a shooting blind for you... ;)
 
I don't know, but the traps were empty this morning with only one big one thrown....

I need to change the location...
