Rodent traps are devices designed to capture or kill rodents, such as mice and rats. They come in various types, including snap traps, glue traps, and electronic traps. Snap traps quickly kill rodents by snapping shut when triggered, while glue traps immobilize them on a sticky surface. Electronic traps deliver a lethal shock to the rodent. These traps are commonly used in homes, businesses, and agricultural settings to control rodent populations. Proper placement and baiting are essential for effectiveness. Safety precautions should be taken to prevent accidental harm to pets or children when using rodent traps.
