It is not humane to leave them stuck to the trap for hours/days.


But do their legs get pulled off if you try and remove them?


No, not at all, at all.

They pull them off themselves.

And unfortunately I am not joking.

In his greengrocers shop my uncle used to use some gook called Dak
which he spread on a piece of cardborad box and left on the floor in
rat runs.

Usually in the morning all was left was one or more sets of four feet
glued to the cardboard. 8-((

Oh that's horrid. Much more horrid than finding half of one chewed up
on the floor.
