I sure would like to know how you deal with it.
I have tried everything... too numerous, and too unkind to mention.
The trap idea is good, I'd add that your bait should be wrapped in steel screen, so you don't need to continuously re-arrange the bait. You're going to need it often.
I have found that eliminating the local population is only a very temporary remedy, as they will flow back in to fill the void.
I think that if they have successfully set up in your house, others will continue to try later... even years later.
I bought an electric livestock fence transformer. I haven't quite figured out how to rig it so that it will do the most good.
I also saw, at a local hardware store, a high-voltage, lethal electric rat trap... my mind is at work on this!!!
