Powder rat attractant bait

Has anyone ever tried any form of powder as a rat bait ?

Seen a pest controller from America who scatters cinnamon powder in the area he puts his trap, to draw them in, than puts a heap on the actual trap itself.

To be honest, I don't know what cinnamon smells like. I was once going to try the same with beef gravy granules but never did after.

What other powder type attractant is there to try ?

Just like trying different things, will give gravy granules a go.

I have caught them on all the usual baits, marshmallow and wine gums but what I'm using at the moment is a chocolate covered nougat bar. Easy to mould a piece onto the trap but hard to get off. 

All my traps are in tunnels, inside or outside, to make them kid and animal safe. I have made multiple designs for various locations. I use fenns and snaps with the fenns 4 catching most. 

Will add to the above. I have some fenns on known good runs which do not need bait. One such location is on a water trough.
