Hi Erin, 

MuseumPests.net has a really great resource on monitoring options. I think blunder traps are a good start - I have used the Catchmaster Pro Mouse and Insect Glue Traps for integrated pest management at school. The traps are checked once a month to keep track of activity.

Sticky traps for insects maybe but, for mammals like mice, NO!

Hi Erin, 

Dekko Silverfish traps work well and come 24 traps to a box. They are collection friendly. 

Good luck,

Meg
