have an issue trapping all of the rats on a property through the exclusive use of snap traps, up to several dozen of them. In the rare circumstance that you have a rat city running out of your home, your best bet is to call in a professional wildlife
remover. It is possible to trap large numbers of rats in corral traps but then you’re faced with the dilemma of what to do with a hundred live, fenced in rats. People with severe rat issues often turn to poison thinking it will be the most effective,
widespread solution to their problem. Poison will kill a rat if the rodent actually eats it which is half the battle. Even if you manage to poison the hundred rats in your home what are you going to do when the rats crawl into the unreachable spaces
of your home and then die? For extreme rat problems a professional is the simplest and most effective choice. Moderate to mild cases are easily handled with the use of snap trapping. Snap traps can be set up in areas of rat activity for a high success rate.

of make-your-own devices that may or may not work. If you have a rat issue and you are looking for serious, effective options, the best traps for rat catching are body gripping traps, also known as snap traps. We all know them and have seen the wooden models
at some point in time, and they are still the most reliable trapping method available. Snap traps are lethal traps, so if you don’t want to kill the rats you should look elsewhere for options. Live traps include the standard cage trap and a corral method
similar to that used for wild hogs. Live trapping of rats is not advisable due to the overpopulation of the species and their nuisance habits. Snap traps can be purchased in bulk at most hardware and grocery stores. They are easy to set and easy to bait
and can also be reused. You can try one of the fancier methods of trapping, but electric traps and glue traps do not have as reliable a track record.
