i agree, it was a tough decision, but the snap traps arent working, Houdini has figured out how to eat the bait and not get snapped. ive been trying the snap traps for about 2 weeks and every day i check and all the food is gone and the trap still set. i even adjusted the activation bar so it was more sensitive, (almost lost a finger in the process) and it is a hair trigger. and he STILL managed to clean the plate! ive made sure the poison is not near any tub in any rack. ive been monitoring it twice daily.
