Best rodent traps for capturing pests in agricultural environments

Stephen M. Vantassel, host of the Wildlife Control Consultant podcast, summarizes the research by Yoav Motro, Yotam Ghndler, Yoav Muller, Yair Goldin, Olga Chagina, Ayla Rimon, Yehonathan Harel, and Uzi Motro in their article A Comparison of trapping efficacy of 11 rodent traps in agriculture published in Mammal Research 2019 https://doi.org/10.1007/s13364-019-00424-7 These researchers evaluated cage, box, and various lethal traps suitable for catching small rodents like house mice, rats and Jirts. Their findings are valuable for wildlife control operators even if they don't work in agricultural areas because the questions they ask about efficacy also apply to vertebrate pest control in urban and suburban areas.
