Mouse Traps, Humane Mouse Trap, Easy to Set, Mouse Catcher Quick Effective Reusable and Safe for Families -2 Pack

I live in a rural area, so mice are a reality, especially when they are looking for a warm shelter from the cold Pennsylvania winter. I don't believe in killing any of God's creatures, but I can't have them chewing up my house, eating my food, or keeping me up at night by scurrying around inside my walls, so humane traps are the way to go. I tried other types of humane traps in the past, but it was too easy for the mice to escape them. These solid plastic tubes don't have that problem. The long, narrow design entices the mice to enter, as if it is one of their own holes. The weight-activated trap door closes securely behind them, trapping them inside, with no possible means of exit. The tubes are long enough that the mouse is safely past the trap door mechanism when it closes, so that they are not injured by it. The bait is securely sealed, so the mice are drawn to it, yet cannot access it. This design seems to be near perfect. I followed the instructions by placing them along walls, near corners, or near possible entry points. Obviously, it helps to put them in areas where you have already seen mice or the remnants of their presence. I did not follow the suggestion of baiting the traps with peanut butter. I have never in my life seen any proof of mice getting into peanut butter, and that would be a mess to clean out each time. I suggest going with whatever food item the mice in your particular house seem to like the most. At my parents' house, it was dry dog food. At my house, it was deer corn. This endeavor was hugely successful. Within the first 2 weeks of using these humane traps, I caught and relocated 12 mice. I didn't even realize there were so many in my house. We had cold temperatures and snow during that time period, so some of them may have been new to my home, replacing those I had evicted. Make sure you release them a few miles away from your home, so they don't come right back in. The only drawback of this product is that the bait chamber is a little hard to remove and reinsert. I have found that the best method is to turn the entire trap upside down, pull down the bait compartment, fill it with deer corn, then press the rest of the trap down onto the bait chamber. Otherwise, the bait would spill out. When releasing mice from the trap, you do so by removing the bait compartment, opening that end of the tube for the mouse to run out (although they are reluctant to come out if it is especially cold out). As I said, the bait chamber is somewhat hard to remove, so this process takes getting used to. Also, the bait will spill out during the release process, but at least that will give the homeless mouse something to eat. All in all, it is a great product, well designed, and sold at a reasonable price. It was been very effective at catching mice within my home. Now, if I could just find a way to keep them from entering my house in the first place...

The traps are incredibly easy to use and there's no fear of hurting your fingers while setting it, unlike traditional spring traps. I filled the bait cups with peanut butter and caught four mice within a few days. Unlike other traps, the mice will not be injured or killed and they can be released away from your home or put down more humanely with CO2 gas. Cleaning the traps is usually quite straightforward, but there are nooks and crannies that can be a bit hard to scrub out if the trapped mice defecate in the trap. The included sponge cleaner works quite well though and it's safe and easy to soak in cleaner or disinfectant since the entire trap is made of durable plastic. The absolute best thing about this trap though is that the mice are NOT killed. Traditional traps can be quite cruel and can leave messes that will attract more pests. If you absolutely must kill the mice, you can place the entire trap (with the mouse still inside) in a deep bucket, place another tub in the bucket, fill the smaller tub with baking soda and vinegar, seal the top, and wait a bit. This method creates CO2 gas that sinks to the bottom of the bucket, makes the mouse unconscious, and then suffocates the mouse while it is unconscious. I think it is much easier to simply take the trap several miles from your home and release them into the wild (as is suggested in the included instructions), but some people (especially city dwellers who live far from the wilderness) may still want to completely get rid of the mouse in a more peaceful manner than snapping their spines with a spring trap.

Very easy to use. No problems.

These traps work great for what they are intended for. I have been able to catch mice with them fairly easily. I have never had a mouse become injured in one or escape them so that’s a plus. The only issues I’ve had with them are: 1- after you use the release door once or twice it begins to stick so sometimes when you are trying to set the mouse free it is hard to open the release 2-if you have an infestation like I did, these are not going to work as well. I’m assuming if you released the mice far from your home it could, however I did not always have the time to hop in my car and travel miles away to release every mouse I caught so my couple of mice turned in to an issue quickly and I had to resort to other methods. I was releasing down the road from my house and I believe they just came right back. You also only get two in a pack so if you have a family of mice you will be traveling often to release while the population continues to grow. I am an animal lover and tried to take the most humane route possible. If you have the freedom to use these correctly and travel to release several times a day these will work great. Happy humane hunting!

Mäuse zerstören die Auslösevorrichtung. Kappt Schwanzspitzen, und Mäuse reißen sich den schwanz ganz ab.

it caught the mouse in three days; the mouse was super healthy, so I released it in the wild. N.B. You need to be patient to catch the mouse, and it will be better to put the trap in front of the mouse's hiding spot

Good one It catches one at a time I am satisfied

Product was easy to setup and caught two mice within the first 24hrs putting peanut butter in the bait section of the trap. Very happy after thinking I only had one mouse to deal with.

The product is effective
