One trap in every six used was a standard rat trap; the remaining were standard mouse traps. Rolled oats, chewed into a sticky ball, and bacon were used at bait on alternate traps.

Three traps were placed at 33 of the stakes, one at the 34th, making 100 traps per line. The lines were run for five consecutive nights (500 trap nights) in the spring and fall of each Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration an
