146 that is preferably made of vinyl or other suitable insulating materials layer 146 is then secured to the top edges of sidewalls 100 of a rectangular nonconductive base 144 by fasteners 138 through a nonconductive rim 142 the rim 142 and base 144 can be made of abs plastic or other suitable nonconductive materials fasteners 138 can be aluminum squeeze rivets or other suitable devices for fastening the resulting structure is thus preferably formed with a hollow interior as shown in fig2 conducting cable 150 has an insulated jacket 98 that surrounds a single conductive wire 92 of a suitable gauge which is soldered at one end to plug 134 the other end of conducting cable 150 passes through a sidewall 100 of base 144 and its conductive wire 92 is soldered to the lead end 132 of rivet 136 rivet 136 is made of a conductive material such as aluminum and its lead end 132 is driven through the top of plate 94 and layer 146 so that it maintains conductive contact with plate 94 those of skill in the art will recognize that there are many suitable ways in which conductive plate 94 can be coupled to conductive wire 92 including soldering fig3 a f illustrate a preferred embodiment of a mechanical portion suited for eliminating nonburrowing pests fig3 a and 3b illustrate front and rear views respectively of the mechanical portion 300 which has a cylindrical portion 302 made of a conducting material such as galvanized steel and an end portion 304 made of a conductive material such as aluminum end portion 304 provides stability and a single point of ingress and egress it also makes disposal of dispatched rodents.
