How do I make homemade rat bait?

Answer by  rbiales (3441)

Rats love peanut butter, the cheaper the better. Mixing whole grain rice with peanut butter will attract most rats to any trap.

For no-kill traps, take a generous dollop of peanut butter. Place it in the middle of a bucket. Hand-fashion a ramp on an incline, leading up to the bucket. Voila

Rats are not too finicky when it comes to food. Peanut butter can be smeared on rat trap, therefore enticing rat to trap. Mix 1/2 cup each of sugar, flour or cornmeal, and baking soda. Put mixture in lids and set where rats visit. Don't forget to put small container of water next to treat to help speed up process!
