What can you put in a mousetrap to attract rodents: no mouse can resist

Mice, rats and other rodents are a headache for every home owner.

It is not for nothing that they say that in war any means are good – even mousetraps, which cannot be called a humane way of fighting pests.

But sometimes this option is the only possible one, so it wouldn’t hurt to find out what you can put in a mousetrap so that they don’t stand empty, but perform their function 100%.

Let's support the stereotype: mice really do like cheese, so this product would be good as their last supper. The only remark: it is better to take smoked cheese.

Among the smoked products that are attractive to mice, lard can also be named. However, lard will cope with its task quite well even in fresh form.

The list of smoked foods does not end here, since rodents will also happily enjoy smoked fish or sausage.

Finally, mice will definitely be attracted to peanut butter balls, cookies, boiled eggs or grains.

If you think that it is not worthwhile to arrange such a feast for creatures that are already causing you harm, then bread crusts soaked in aromatic sunflower oil will do.
