Contrac Blox IMO. I've tried all the fancy expensive stuff, but have used Contrac year round at many places & never fails. It is also less expensive. It is only for outdoor use though in some kind of station to keep it away from pets etc. Also eliminate any competing food sources like fruit on the ground etc, uncovered trash cans, dog food will increase likelihood of hits. the stations come in 6 packs. one box & 1 4# pail will last a while. If indoors trap your attic.
