I'm at my folks house in the country and I heard the sound of little feet running around either in the attic or in the wall. what do you think I can use to bait them and kill whatever the noise is? I don't think it's field mice, could be a pack rat or maybe chipmunks but it's at night and chipmunks aren't night creatures.

Usually we use the largest size snap trap and jam a peanut unto the fold to ensure a good tug. Never considered hot glue.

Also: be sure to check the trap daily to reduce the stink and potential damage.

Agreed on all points, buddy suggested the hot glue thing and it really makes a difference. Triples the efficiency in my experience. Bad land lady so I had plenty of opportunities to experiment.

Poison sucks.
