Well, he won round 3. I bought a big rat trap, heavy spring loaded, with teeth. I put peanut butter in the center of it. He managed to eat the peanut butter, without tripping the trap. I will try again tonite and try putting the peanut butter deeper in the hole, making it harder for him to get to it.

go to Menards and get some prebaited sticky traps, tie the traps to a brick so it cant drag them off,

Your vendetta against some poor creature ( possum? ) is probably costing more than the price of the seed. Do the math. Whoops, I didn't mean that. It would be difficult to calculate your benefts from the task. It's like fishing.

In all honesty, wouldn't it be simpler, cheaper and most of all effective to just remove any food source from the location?? No food, no pests!

It is beyond the cost of food / grass seed whatever. It is man vs rodent.

"License to kill gophers by the government of the United Nations. Man, free to kill gophers at will. To kill, you must know your enemy, and in this case my enemy is a varmint. And a varmint will never quit - ever. They're like the Viet Cong - Varmint Cong. So you have to fall back on superior intelligence and superior firepower. And that's all she wrote." Bill Murray
