re: Rat trap placement question

And tie the trap off to something. I've had rats not die right away and they will try to find some place to hide and drag the trap with them.
I use the big snap type rat traps and tie a piece of nylon string around the metal staple that holds the trigger arm in place and then around anything that won't be easily moved.
Place the traps along a wall since rodents like to travel close to walls.

Put it with the snap closing towards the wall. Rats/mice will run along the wall. Basically they will likely trigger the trap if they go for the bait or try to cross over it.

traps
They're smart enough to learn to avoid, so supposedly it's much better to set several all at once(in corners and along walls), instead of hoping to get by with 1 or 2 used over an extended period of time.
