Re: Mice in attic

I found the feta cheese to be working best for traps. Success ratio was probably 5/1 vs peanut butter.
I use the classic pedal traps and squeeze some cheese into the pedal. Makes it a bit more sensitive too due to the extra weight.

I don't think you need to bait those. I just set them without bait and sometimes within hours they've been set off.

I had snakes in my garden shed. I set a few mouse traps in there to kill their food supply. Mice are gone and no more snakes.

You don't need to bait if you have a bunch of mice and you just expect them to walk over the trap by mistake.
However I tried bait/no bait setups and the ones with bait caught the mice. There was a time when I was catching 1-2 every day -always on the traps with cheese. Maybe my mice arewere more picky than others...
