I have been waging war on mice/rats/squirrels out at my shop!

It seems like I am making headway but I still feel like I’m feeding the little vermin!

 I alternate these two and always have bait out in multiple places inside and outside!

Anybody have something that works for them?

I have used both of these products in outdoor bait stations.  After several weeks, I was using more bait than I was at the beginning. My guess is that the packrats were gaining weight on it.  I switched to a product called Jaguar, I believe that it is made by the same company, but has a different active ingredient. Jaguar has worked great for me. Seasonally I will have 15 bait stations and have found that I have to wire them down in an out of the way place so javelina don't mess with them.  Indoors, I only use snap traps baited with peanut butter.  For rock squirrels I use conibear traps set on the burrow.  The conibear trap makes relocation and release real easy.

I have done all mentioned here except for the Jaguar bait, I will have to look for that! Thanks for info on that bait! I honestly told my wife yesterday I felt like I have been feeding the rats :) 

I have also built my own version of this which was mentioned earlier! It works pretty dang good too!
