    I use the ones with the metal pan. Don’t over bait. You don’t have to hide the pan from view. Watch out for your fingers as you set and move the trap

    I have used the large Victor traps for decades. I bait with a piece of cheddar(squirrels dont like cheese, but they do like peanut butter) I attach a short cable to stake em out so a rat doesnt drag the trap away. put it outside the hole and partial cover to help keep birds away.
