How to Use Lem Tikus Produced by Cap Gajah
- Preparing a Board or Cardboard for the Glue
If you use the tube-type Cap Gajah rat glue trap, you will need a sturdy board. The board serves as the base or surface for spreading the glue. For this, it is recommended to use a plywood board that is no longer in use. You can also use thick cardboard or a cardboard box. What matters is that the board must be large enough so that rats cannot easily jump over it.
- Preparing the Tube-Type Rat Glue
In this article, the rat glue to be used is the tube or paste type. If you have never seen it before, the product comes in packaging similar to toothpaste. You can buy Cap Gajah rat glue at many locations, including neighborhood grocery stores and nearby supermarkets, for around IDR 13,000. Then, spread the glue over the board in a circular motion, evenly, without leaving any gaps that rats could jump across.
- Placing Strong-Smelling Food as Bait
Once you have spread the glue evenly across the board, don't forget to place food bait in the center of the trap. If you are unsure which food works best as bait, it is a good idea to use foods with a strong smell, such as raw fish, cheese, or gorengan (fried snacks). You can also try sweet, sticky honey, or even pieces of sweet chocolate as bait.
- Placing the Glue and Bait Where Rats Often Travel
With the board fully covered in glue and bait in place, the final step is to put it where rats frequently pass. Cap Gajah rat glue has no smell and is clear, so rats will not be suspicious of the trap board. You can place the trap on the kitchen floor, in corners of the house with signs of rat nests, or under household furniture. Remember to check it regularly to see whether any rats have been caught.
