Catchmaster Max-Catch Mouse & Insect Glue Trap 72pk, Mouse Traps Indoor for Home, Sticky Pest Control Adhesive Tray for Catching Bugs, Bulk Classic Glue Boards

A weather strip on our garage broke in the corner, and we didn't notice it. Well, apparently, around the same time, the drought in the Midwest also made mice come through our area in droves. We started off using the snap traps, because we wanted to be "humane", but then the little critters got wise and stopped getting caught in them. These traps were a saving grace! They are VERY sticky, and we haven't had a single one get caught and then get away. My husband put them in a spot where we were pretty sure they were coming in (directly above our garage, where an internet cable runs through the floor of our second story). They were climbing the walls like Spider-Man, apparently. We were catching them one right after the other! I thought it would never end, but it has. After installing a new weather strip, we haven't seen one in probably around a week. Now, I'm not going to lie to ya, it's a grizzly matter: this WILL catch them, but you have to..."dispatch" them yourself. We used a 5 gallon bucket of water to...end their existence. I also suggest using an N95 mask and gloves when dealing with them, because the white-footed and deer variety are known to carry Hantaviruses, lymphatic bacteria, and other contagious pathogens in their urine and feces, and they WILL move around - wafting bacteria and viruses into the air! If you're immunocompromised, it could spell disaster for your health, so I DEFINITELY recommend an N95 for folks who have lung issues and/or poor immune systems, smokers, etc, and anyone who just doesn't want to risk catching a pulmonary or hemorrhagelic disease. Don't take risks with your health. That said, if you want the job done fast (so that they don't have time to breed and make more), these are great for that reason. Also, another thing to note, we have small children, and small children have questions and are curious. I do NOT recommend putting these traps down anywhere little hands and little eyes can touch or see them. It's something we personally didn't think about until it was too late, because our cat picked one up and dropped it on our 3-year-old's blanket, and it BIT HER! A tetanus shot, antibiotic prescription, and ER visit later, and we sent our kids to Auntie's and Grandma's while we de-cluttered and hunted the little nuisances. Luckily, she seems to be okay - despite the ED physician refusing to give her the rabies vaccine and immunoglobulin (they didn't even test the subject that bit her, and we took it with us!) So, again, don't take any chances. These have been literal lifesavers. They are pretty big, you can fold them into a tunnel, of sorts, or link them together to ENSURE that nothing is able to move from one area to the next (we found this to be the best use of the linking capabilities: putting them across a threshold or along corners near the baseboards). You get quite a few in each pack, as well, so you don't end up "wasting" them. We also bought the Tomcat variety, but these seemed to work better and we caught more with them (only caught two with the TC variety - OVER 20 with these). Despite not having seen any for a week or so, we're keeping these on our subscribe list and swapping them out every week or so to make sure it never gets like it was! We also got the peanut butter scented ones, but neither of us detected a scent at all. That said, SOMETHING was drawing them to the traps. I hope the formula never changes, because these are the absolute BEST mouse traps.

Excellent quality product (Catchmaster MAX). One of the larger sized glue trap products. We've purchased several times. 5 stars, recommended -- but the other Catchmaster glue traps (unscented, and/or some slightly smaller versions) are good as well. Faint scent (fake peanut butter?) may or may not help with insects, but might be useful for mice. We're sticking with this version (versus the plain/unscented version), due to good results in the past. We caught several small mice in an older home, using these. The traps also catch all sorts of small crawling & flying insects, which is nice in warmer, humid climates. We always put one trap (flat) on the floor under a nightlight, which attracts some small flying insects as well. We've even used these (flat) near a fireplace, to catch a bat crawling out under the glass doors. Tip for MICE: put the glue trap (flat) inside an empty cardboard 12-pack soda box, with end flaps removed. Cut a small hole on top so you can see the trap inside. Makes for easy, no-touch disposal of mice. Also, read the directions/tips that come with the traps, especially for mice.

After finding mice in our kitchen, we bought these stick mouse traps along with a more conventional trap. These sticky traps worked really well. We ended up catching 2 of them overnight after laying them out. The stickiness of the traps was very evident as both mice struggled to move. In one case, I saw that one of the mice ended up ripping off some of its fur in its struggle to get out. Disposal was also fairly easy. I placed a paper towel on top of the trap so that I wouldn’t accidentally get stuck to it myself. Then tossed them in the trash.

Bulk Pack That Covers a Lot of Ground, but Mixed Results The Catchmaster Max-Catch glue traps are a practical option if you need wide coverage quickly. With 36 boards in a pack (and even larger bulk sizes available), you can place them all over the house, garage, or shed. They’re easy to set up—just peel the paper and drop them along walls or behind appliances. I liked that they’re non-toxic, which makes them safer to use around pets and kids compared to poisons or sprays. Performance, though, is hit or miss. In some spots these caught mice and bugs right away, while in other areas the glue seemed less effective and pests walked around them. The adhesive is very sticky when fresh, but over time (especially in humid spots) it can lose tackiness. The “scented” version smells faintly like peanut butter, which may help draw pests, but it’s not always strong enough to lure a cautious mouse. Another thing to keep in mind is cleanup—because these are open glue boards, you will occasionally catch unintended insects (or dust), and once something’s stuck, the whole board usually has to be tossed. They’re definitely not the most humane option, either, so that’s worth considering. Bottom line: A cost-effective way to blanket a problem area with traps, and they do work—just not consistently in every situation. Best for supplementing other pest control methods rather than relying on these alone.

I have to say this product is very good, I wish they came in round pieces to and half or and option to make them half. Once something lands that's it nothing is getting through. Please keep the product tightly, I did have to cut a lot of extra over hang. U don't want to give this bugs a millimeter. It is an amazing product. One of the best I found, I had to get the glue off the floor with paint thinner. Paint thinner N vinegar kills. Also spreading diatomaceous earth on my entire floor N the pads it did its job. One request is to add more for the price specifically for round sections. Please keep this pads and diatomaceous earth for 2 months minimum so u can make sure they die within 10 days or depending on how much diatomaceous earth u added. The pads and the powder it does and amazing job saving your furniture but u must take action asap. I like this because It doesn't attract much dust like some and is thick glue. U can rip it off the floor n it will still be reusable. Again in a different ares where don't play with your beds, n quality furniture. If you keep the pads and shake furniture ect everything will drop and it will all stick. Not allowing the bugs and inch. U must keep on vacuuming. Note not to vacuum diatomaceous earth with ur vacuum can get plugged, I washed my filters with boiling water every single time. Bisel $20 dollar vacuum was amazing N u can wash the plastic hepa filter. Bag it N put it outside. Please spend the money on the pads are worth every penny. Put the diatomaceous earth in every Crack ect of your furniture. U must bag all your close and to make sure no transfers strip outside before your vehicle. I also had the sticky pads in closets anywhere where is going towards your room, keep on checking the pads, don't by pads with design. Plain white is the best, you can spread the powder all over the entire, covet the floors in case one is hidden, remember this bugs can live a long time.

I keep my apartment as sealed as possible against roaches and other pests. The one place I can’t fully access is behind the bathroom sink because of how the drawer was built underneath it; getting in there would risk breaking something or causing water damage. Sure enough, we spotted a roach one night and I couldn’t get it in time. I ordered these traps and placed them around the bathroom. In less than 24 hours, I caught it. The trap that did the job was actually placed above my medicine cabinet mirror, which surprised me in a good way. I like that these come ready to use and that there are so many in the pack. It made it easy to set multiple traps without feeling like I had to ration them. I now keep the drain plugged when it’s not in use, but just in case, I’ve already put down a replacement trap. So far, these have worked exactly as I hoped. I really hope I don’t need to buy another box, but if I do, I’ll come right back here. Great product, and a big relief.

Good product, do what it says
