macca R-10 Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 iv recently tried all sorts and found that they love these i have truly shot one rat while anoughter still stayed there eating what i made 1- smooth penut butter 2- cheaper the better chocolate spread 3- kitten food they all work on own mixed pref - smooth penut butter mixed with cheaper the better chocky spread but the best is = smoth penut butter, cheap chocky spread, and proper hasel nuts crushed to bits and warm it all up so it smells mint and is gooey/runny so u can spread it out so they have to stay there longer to eat it rather than pinch a bit n run! but still i add a little secret that funnly enought brings em in like crasey ( some garlic sauce from kebab shops ) honestly mix in a little just a tutch so it smells when all warmed up omg does it work atb and gl macca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frenchieboy Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 Peanut Butter or Chocolate Spread are the only two that you should need. In my experience they are about the best "Rat Magnets" easily available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
