They are designed to attract rodents that are then stuck fast when they walk on to them and so can’t move and eventually die starving to death.

I think.
Hawks and other birds of prey to iirc. A nasty way to die.
I would never use them, but they will have their place.
Anyone using them should in my mind be checking multiple times per day & putting anything out of their
misery promptly. The same as using poison & other traps they should not be readily accessible to non target species like birds of prey.

Joe Public might use them anywhere but pest controllers won’t. In practice I’d imagine they’d only be used in sterile locations such as contaminent or allergy free areas. Sone poisons are now getting banned from being used outside.
