Have you seen the novel rat trap from New Zealand? No poison. Uses bait and then de-brain's any rat that enters trap. Rat drops out, to be consumed by other critters. IIRC Each trap kills a few hundred before needing a new CO2 cartridge.

Last I read, it's been very effective.

This little beastie I assume? https://goodnature.co.nz/

The fancy one that gives a kill count is quite appealing.

The more traditional DOC 150/200/250 are a good option too. They are powerful, don’t mess about with them.

I was not prepared for the smartphone app with kill notifications
Nicely spotted.

They've much refined the design and their product line. Also now avail in the US. Yay!
