Rolling mouse/rat trap or the traditional spring loaded ones?

Try a wildlife camera for some evenings entertainment. They can stream to your phone these days.

Looks like there's some reasonable priced ones on Ebay.....might do that but hope to have them gone real soon.

Had about 8" in it but there's probably at least 10" now. If one got out, I didn't see any wetness around it but who knows.

Add a bit of dish soap to the water to break the surface tension.

That will kill them fast even if it's shallow?

The problem with poison is they eat it and die behind a wall or something and stink. Do you have at least 10" of water in the bucket? You don't want them to be able to jump out.

Or a pet eats them and gets poisoned too, might not even be your pet, could be a neighbor’s.

Bought a couple of the spring traps today.....only had one on the regular isle but the wife went to the discount shelf and found another for a dollar less. Regular price is only 3 bucks but 33% off is good so got it too. Think I know why it was on the sale rack....one side of the spring came off of the 'kill' bar but there's still plenty of tension on it. Tomcat vs Victor. Thought the Victor might be the lesser one since it has the plastic bait/hook and the Tomcat is built like the traditional Victors. I have them loaded with pieces of ham so we'll see. The place I went to didn't have any 'sticky paper' so the PB jars are on the sidelines. Didn't get anything last night.

The Victor spring trap got a rat last night while the TomCat rat trap was sprung and the bait was gone. Not even a hair was left on it. 2 down and I hope only 1 more to go....
