mice are more accurately herbivores although they do like dairy, and rats are omnivorous .... I find a single commercial bait pack tied to the trigger [I use a few wraps of the thinest painters tape] is the "gift that keeps giving" - giving me dead rodents that is, same pack for years now

as for something else making off with the entomologists p-butter, could it be insects? grin previous to my current technique I used raw peanuts in the shell, piercing the shell with the point of the bait plate
