Inside my art storage area I don’t like to use food based bait like peanut butter because we ended up having trouble with spider beetles feeding off it, so I have used things like cotton and yarn nesting materials as bait with fair results, but I don’t have a big problem with mice actually inside the storage areas. I was wondering if anyone on the list has some other ideas for things I could use for baiting the traps that wouldn’t create a food source for the six-legged kind of pests. Thanks in advance!
