Check out the traps made with 5 gallon buckets half full of water, a wood ramp and a stiff wire from one side the top of the bucket to the other with soda cans skewered on it and covered in peanut butter.

U-tube has a lot of videos on this type trap. Rodents climb up the ramp and try to access the peanut butter by climbing on the soda cans. The cans rotate and drop the rodents in the water where they drown.

I was able to catch a few with something similar but they got wise to it quick. They’re pretty cautious when they aren’t starving, which is why the new generation poisons work. They will take a small taste of a new food source before going at it, but with the new stuff that taste is all it takes.
