Something is tearing the plastic of my roach traps, I don't think its roaches. Anyone know what it could be?

Question

I placed a roach trap in my basement closet and when I came to check it two days later the plastic and paper under the trap was torn apart and the roach food was gone. Does anyone know what could be attacking my traps?

Answer 1

mice....?/?

Answer 2

I have seen some mighty big roaches during my travels, and you don't say where you are, but I don't think your issue is roaches.

Can you spell rats?

I don't know if a kind of trap I have used is available where you are, but I once had a rat in our house (it came in through an open window) and we tried various things - the trap that got it was a piece of board with super sticky glue on it - the rat stepped on it to get the bait, and it stayed there - it couldn't get away.

Answer 3

Mice?

Answer 4

Do you have a cat?
