Check these guys out. I too have this problem and have tried everything. Set this up a month ago and works great. No car yet, soon I’m told. Check them out online . Great customer service.
Please no glue traps. They're really inhumane & an awful way for these animals to die. They also trap other critters that don't deserve to die this way.
Unfortunately the sticky pads don't discriminate. We caught two like this and I got rid of the pads and switched 100% to the slamming traps.
I tried to save this guy, but the glue is just insane.
Again about the poison... They don't eat it and die instantly. There is a chance they will die somewhere you don't want them to.
I have major Rat/squirrel problems especially this time of year with the acorns. I’ve tried everything excluding poison. We don’t like the residual threat. I use glue traps in my garages where the rats enter. Yes lizards get caught once in a while but mostly can be saved using vegetable oil then Dawn soap bath. If you have a major problem, you just sign it off to collateral damage. Check the traps every morning and drown the rats you catch.

I have better success with the glue. Believe it or not sometimes they just don’t get caught and manage to snap and bail. Poison is out of the question and trust me, I still see signs of rats. It’s just one of the negatives of rural living. No matter what, it’s still better than having neighbors.
Years ago, while driving my 944 Turbo to work, a field mouse ran over my shoulder and down my arm. I swatted it against the windshield and it jammed between the glass and the dash. I hit the brakes, pulled over, and jumped out. The mouse left little claw marks on the glass but was nowhere to be seen. I actually considered burning the car down right there beside the highway. But better judgement prevailed and I put traps with peanut butter in the car. Never saw a trace of any mouse after that day. But it was always in the back my mind.
