My fatherinlaw bought some sort of bag type trap designed for Jap beatles and he caught them by the pound!!! Im not kidding it worked wonders. It has a sent to it and when he opened it they came flocking and got traped in the bag.

Just make sure those bag traps are located at least 100 feet away from what you're trying to protect. Otherwise they take a quick meal on what you're trying to protect before the orgy! LOL
