So I have some unwanted guests and I set a couple snap traps. They seem to be the best option. I use to use electric traps and I don't like glue traps, but the snap traps have been around for awhile and proves to be the most reliable.
So is it just me or does everyone have a problem setting them and getting that lever to stay on the hook. Drives me crazy. Takes me 5 minutes or sometimes longer just to get one set. Then it's matter of placing it. I found that depending where you have to place it. I nail the trap to a 2x4 about 2-3 feet long. this way your hands are far away from the traps and if you have to place it in the attic you can without much of an issue and do it safely.
