We have either a mouse or a roof-rat running around inside the attic.
You can hear him (or her) mainly early in the morning.

I set a trap with peanut butter on a piece of bread as the bait. So far

Any other advice on how to catch him (or her) would be appreciated.

The trap I bought is the following:

It won't work...you need to toast the bread first.

And trim off the crust...

And use crunchy peanut butter...not creamy ;)
