Cut bits off your luggage and air dry bags and bait with that.

Ditch the mechanical traps. Roshield bait traps, EBay mate. Just replenished my stocks

I get the wax nuggets, they love it.

Buy a couple of boxes, check them every few months and add some more nuggets as required

Get yourself a cat mate. Mines 19 now and she's caught many a 4 legged intruder in her day

Another for peanut butter. They can't resist it and sticks so not nicked without the trap going off if set properly.

Block the holes in your shed where they are getting in.

They chewed up my one-month-old Avid benchmark, luggage and clothing last year, despite regular traps. On glue traps now and they can't seem to dodge those.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
