One pair of rats producing 300 a year is actually a little misleading. Rat propagation is exponential, therefore one female rat can be responsible for over 1000 little guys and gals in a year. That's the 1 + 1 =2, 2+2 = 4, 4+4 = 8,,,,and so on. We had a serious rat problem, and trapped over 30 in a one month period. I've never met a rat that doesn't fall prey to creamy peanut butter. My wife got 2 in one trap at the same time. Believe in peanut butter,,,just save some for yourself!!!
Rat traps are not inhumane if loaded correctly and the springs are strong. Old traps are usually the culprit for suffering 'cause the spring is weak. I understand your dilemma, but if ya don't nip the bud now, your problem will exacerbate itself. You'll never get rid of the little guys, but you can control them. Hope this helps,,,,
