Yes, it will be interesting to see if we have any luck with them.
(She bought 2 - for 2 buildings) The ramp setup might help or
hurt that. As I mentioned ealier, I took a tiny bit of peanut butter
and touched it along up the ramp hoping the mice would smell that
more easily and follow it up looking for more.

The ramp on hers looked pretty steep to me but I guess it's been
tested by the maker, plus I've seen mice walk vertically up a wooden
wall so they are pretty good at getting places..
