Sticky traps have the advantage of not harming children or pets that bumble 
into your area. 

I have one stuck on the inside fender of my enclosed trailer.  I was delivering 
a Miata that I sold, and while removing the tiedowns, I stepped on a trap 
without noticing.  My boot dragged the trap and the sticky side plastered up 
against the side of the fender box.  I will have to go back with a rag and grab 
on the protruding part and see if I can peel it off.  It's really stuck.  I may 
have to use some alcohol or something to clean the fender.

Good news.  No pests in the trailer.  In my shop, I have not caught any 
rodents, but wandering bugs have ended their lives in the stickies.
