MOUSE TRAPS FOR REAL-WORLD PROBLEMS
The right mouse trap can make a significant difference when dealing with unwanted rodents.
Whether you're protecting a kitchen, pantry, garage, barn, workshop, shed, cabin, or homestead, choosing the appropriate trap and placing it where mice are actually traveling is an important part of effective mouse control.
Backyard Baits® and North American Trapper® products are selected with practical, real-world use in mind.
PAIR YOUR MOUSE TRAP WITH THE RIGHT ATTRACTANT
A mouse trap provides the control method. The attractant helps draw attention to the trap.
Backyard Baits® offers species-specific mouse attractants developed around the feeding behavior and food preferences of mice.
Backyard Baits® Mouse #1 – Rodent Reserve
A formulated mouse attractant designed for use with mouse-control applications.
Backyard Baits® Mouse #2 – Smoky Bacon
A distinctive food-based mouse attractant designed to complement your mouse-trapping setup.
Using a dedicated mouse attractant can provide an additional tool when establishing a trapping location.
WHERE SHOULD YOU PLACE A MOUSE TRAP?
Look for evidence before setting traps.
Common signs of mouse activity include:
- Small rodent droppings
- Gnaw marks
- Damaged food packaging
- Nesting material
- Greasy marks along walls
- Scratching or movement sounds
- Mouse tracks
- Activity around stored feed or food
Mice frequently travel along walls, edges, protected areas, and established pathways.
Don't just put a trap where you see a mouse. Look for where the mouse is traveling.

BUILT ON TRAPPING KNOWLEDGE
Backyard Baits® is connected to the experience and expertise of North American Trapper® and its focus on understanding animal behavior.
We believe successful animal control begins long before a trap is set.
You need to understand what animal you're dealing with, what brought it there, what it is eating, where it is traveling, and where the problem begins.
That's why our products are designed to work as part of a complete approach to nuisance-animal control.
