Ive seen it posted before but it works so good have to put it out there.
Bucket from anywhere
1/8 welding rod
Can
Peanutbutter
Wood ramp
Antifreeze
Drill 2 , 1/8 inch holes across from each other and 2 in the can, assemble then add peanutbutter and a ramp. If you use antifreeze they wont smell when dead.
I place it along the wall where they travel

For shits and grins we took 2 pieces of 4"×4"×1/4" flat steel. Put a plastic spray paint cap one plate layed on the floor and one plate on top of the cap. On that plate there was a dollup of peanutbutter. Then attached a 120v wire to each plate. Mice come get a taste of PB and assoon as they were touching each plate....

I’ve tried everything. Last year I tried putting a new bar of Irish Spring soap in my cars. They ATE it !
WTF !
A mouse ate the HP plug wires on my deuce ! All the way from the distributor to the plugs !
I’m going to try this. Looks like it’ll work good.
Thanks for sharing!

My dumb ass would forget to turn the breaker off to clear the trap.

Mighty gratifying seeing those little #%!=+* in the bottom of that bucket
