any advice on how to get rid of rodents?

15. The initial cost is a little steep

but electronic traps got rid of a plague of rodents in my neighborhood about 10 years ago. My poor cat would act like a pointer dog and let me know where they were, but she was too old to catch them.

I used Victor traps, they run on AA batteries, are humane (I guess) because Mickey doesn't have time to squeak before he's gone, just open the trap door and dump the remains into the trash. Best bait? Peanut butter with a cat kibble stuck into it, irresistible.

I didn't like poison, too much chance of them dying in the walls and stinking up the house. Snap traps were useless, mice here are too savvy for those. Glue traps are cruel beyond belief. And nothing that gives you a live mouse will work, dump Mickey outside and he'll just come right back in.

Posting the Amazon link so DU will get a few cents, but it looks like they've got a special on them now.
