The taste of peanut butter and string.

Loaded Mousetrap.  Nikon D7000

I tolerate the rodents until they start to become destructive.

This little nipper has been quite successful in removing life from little furry creatures.

Peanut butter seems to be a real snap with the mice; although they are very adept at carefully licking it off the trap without triggering it.

The secret is to wrap thin string around the trigger plate and work the peanut butter into the string.   When the mouse has finished licking off what peanut butter it can, it gets greedy and tugs at the string :)

SNAP!
