I've used the 5 gal bucket for a couple years and it works great. I use RV anti freeze instead of water. I live in Pa. Water freezes. They drown in the anti-freeze and it keeps the from smelling. I use a 1/4 in dowel rod thru bucket, thru small coffee can loaded with P/B. I attach a small ramp up to the protruding dowel rod. When they get in they go right for the P/B and I never find droppings any where else. I don't have to worry about checking traps often. Dryer sheets and peppermint oil never helped.
