Popis: These studies were carried out during two successive years (2017-2019) at Sohag Governorate (Gazert Shandweel Village Located at 15 km North of Sohag District). In this study, wire-box and glue traps were used to control rodents attacking Sugar cane plants. The results showed that the number of rodents caught during the 2017-2018 season was 45 individuals using wire-box traps and 73 individuals by glue traps, and the results in the second year 2018-2019 show that the number of rodents caught by wire-box traps was 65 individuals and 78 individuals with glue traps. Both data in Tables 1 & 2 showed that the glue traps were the highest rodent species captured from the thicker traps and most suitable for the house mouse, M. musculus.
