Not sure this is how the trap is supposed to work. The rat is using it to reach nasturtium seeds. https://video.nostr.build/7bd9b46b1cbcedacd9a9ae0b01e7acac264dd41cf7fcef9e02ae8ab5ae769b84.mp4

I am strongly of the opinion that if rats are a problem for your food production you're eating the wrong foods
Interesting take. It is mostly eating cucumbers and tomatoes.
This was probably not your intent, but this post cracked me up
(Also, I'm sorry that you're dealing with rats!)
It was my intent indeed
Itβs really tough to get rats into a live trap like this unfortunately. You may get one, but if you have one you have easily10sβ and if you do get that first one the other ones will never go near the trap again.
Got three in that one before they got wise
