On the positive side, Nutella makes very effective bait for a mousetrap.

On the negative side, I would have preferred not to need to know that.

My grandmother uses Chinese sausage and dried cuttlefish to catch the rats around here. Basically anything strong smelling. We trap them humanely and then release them some ways away, but since there's a lot of construction going on nearby, they'll probably be back. *sigh* And we're pretty sure one of the rats we caught committed suicide. He thrashed around so much he caught his neck on a sharp piece of wire and just stopped moving.

You probably didn't need to know that either.
