The traps I'm using are a plastic version. The pro version is branded T-rex, while the home version of
similar build is the Tomcat. They have been working good so far. Last one I tied down and something ate
the rat it caught. Only the head was left in the trap, roughly 24hrs after I set it.

I did see the zappers and was going to purchase one before I read about the plastic traps. I have a 
few of the plastic traps set and I have two more to set but need to find some more string to tie it 
down. I think the possum was the culprit making them vanish.

As I mentioned to someone else, there is some evil satisfaction in using these traps.   <g>

I've had great luck with the electric rat/mouse traps put out by Victor. 
They run on batteries and give the varmints a jolt around 10,000 volts. 
When it is mouse season we get at least one a day, which thins them out 
in a hurry. I bought ours at Tractor Supply, but you should be able to 
find the just about anywhere. Cost, about $50.
