 It’s that time of year: mice are trying to move into the house. :P

What’s been the most effective bait you’ve used on a snap trap?

I’ve had semi-decent success in the past with half a grape twist-tied to the bait plate. (I read somewhere that they seek out moisture as much as food.) Peanut butter or cheese never seem to work nearly as well.  

But I’m eager to try other baits!  Or other methods altogether (besides poison or sticky traps).
