Lots of good advice @Finnwolf – but its hard to compete with natural fruits if they are into it
Some of my best producing sites have been using some kind of ramp – local branches off the Pittosporum, a piece of 100*50 or even a stay on a strainer post – they seem to be suckers to climb a ramp. Put a couple of traps up the ramps to make it interesting – possum paste or peanut butter are lethal. That black rat was still alive and had been eating one of his mates I got the previous day – an old carcass makes great lure.
I filthy dirty cage seems to work better than a clean and shiny one – even old rats can be stupid.
