Dorset Winmag Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 Chocolate! Also they have a liking for halibut pellets and any carp boilie!! I sometimes "disguise" the trap by covering with hemp seeds........they just nibble away until...."BLAM!" Mice have very catholic tastes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxshooter Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 I have used bacon rind, the advantage being it smells and can be tied on with cotton so it is not easy to remove. This year in my new property I am trying poison. I'm eagerly awaiting delivery of a kilo of Black Pearl which apparently is the ultimate in rapid single dose poisons (Alphachloralose). The little buggers have had a kilo of Bromodialone poison in well under a week! Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stacka Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 Sticky toffee and chocolate.....I use it regular. If your intending to shoot them, the use vegetable oil, chocolate spread, peanut butter, and cat food warmed in a bowl over boiling water mixed up until it's runny.....smells Vile but works amazingly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they have eaten 1 kg of Bromo stick with it and keep feeding it until they stop feeding, it can take almost a week to start working. Which BP have you got grain based or pasta?

dylan5588 Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 Chocolate spread, they love it, also use the wooden "little nipper" traps with the hinged wooden base plate, with this type you are not reliant on them having to nibble the bait to spring the trap, it springs as soon as they step on it.

This seemed to be pretty effective as he killed dozens of the blighters every year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swatty Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 I have spent many nights carp fishing watching rats and mice avoid my traps mainly fenn traps they are clever little pests who can remove your bait with ease without getting caught but I finally bossed them by heating up the grease out of my bacon frying pan and pouring the fat on the trap it's like cat nip to rats anduce and as they carnt see it the just wade right in and get nailed every time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
