How to keep your traps working past one use

Another review : First off these are great little traps. easy to set and use. Catch and kill quickly. Easy to release the mouse from trap without having to handle the rodent. I think most people have an expectation that these are multi-use traps. The Tomcat video even shows the easy release, inferring that you will be keeping the trap vs just tossing the entire mouse / trap ensemble. My experience is that these will work a couple of times then they get hard to set and eventually either fail to release or the little white trigger bar will break at the back. Being a take-apart / fix-it type guy I took one of my failed traps apart to see why they fail. What I found was everything looked fine. My experiment was to reassemble and basically lubricate the trap's "hinged" areas. Well that fixed the trap. What I found was a small drop of vegetable oil, mineral or baby oil placed on the back of the traps trigger is a good way to keep them working. Use something that is not going to damage plastic. Probably a good silicon oil or gel would be perfect. You do not need to dis-assemble the trap. just put a drop through the open back on the hinge and latch bar. I now lube that back trigger area before any use and I keep catching mice. As an FYI, contacting "Tomcat" they will tell you these are one use but will refund your costs for this trap but you need a real receipt and or the actual cardboard UPC code before they will refund. enjoy

Yes, Yes, Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, Yes, Yes!!! Omg!! This thing works!!!!! So I had a mouse in my apartment and I was FLIPPING out. Seriously flipping out. I bought mouse traps, mouse deodorizer, glue traps, plugged my holes in my closet with foam, got a mouse deterrent plug-in, used peppermint oil, etc. I didn't see the mouse at all. I figured I blocked him from coming back. Nope. Late one night, the bugger comes out from behind the wall unit in my apartment & I scream and flip out again. Yet, this time he is truly trapped in this location, no leeway. I set up this trap along with the black one from this same company that I bought. The mouse was smart, he looked out from his crack ABOVE THE TRAPS FOR ME!!! Ok, bugger, I'm gonna attempt to get you. I sprayed peppermint oil & put a towel above the traps so that the only way he'd get out would be by getting snapped up. The mouse was smart. He skipped the first trap, but the second one got him (his head), then the first one snapped on his abdomen. It took him probably about 10 seconds to suffer, then he died. From the time I set up the traps, it took an hour to get him. I LOVE THESE TRAPS. I am definitely going to keep a few extra around for safe keeping. And also continue to patch up any existing holes. Make no mistake, you WILL know when your prey has died. The traps are super loud. But what an amazing confirmation. I celebrated with a cocktail thereafter. Yes, this event was indeed worth celebrating.

This is a viciously effective mouse trap

This had used to be my favorite trap, but one day my girlfriend walked towards the kitchen area in the middle of the night and damn near fainted at the grisly scene of a trapped mouse bleeding all over the trap and kitchen floor. The teeth on the trap punctured the mouse's face and skull. After cleaning up the mess, I decided to check out other traps, specifically ones with a single bar and without teeth. After a few months, I realized they were not as effective and the trigger not as sensitive. I decided to return to this medieval device and it's already caught a victim within 24 hours. This trap is not for the faint of heart. It has two rows of teeth and they clamp down with enough force to destroy a mouse's head. I've head to wipe away blood from the floor quite a few times, and on a couple of occasions the death was so messy that I simply threw away the trap with the dead mouse. Don't even think about setting these on carpet. For those without the stomach, I'd recommend the Snap-E Mouse Traps.

ALREADY caught TWO in 8 hours!

I received this last night & set them up at 20:25. At 00:17, GOT ONE by the stove! I took him outside, dropped him in the woods & reset it. At 04:41, GOT ANOTHER ONE by the stove! I reset it this morning. I think there were only two mice, but we'll see! I haven't even had to put more peanut butter in, because before they reach it, BAM!!! You can see I put the traps in small boxes since I didn't know how far 'things' might flight, & to keep any mess contained. These traps are VERY easy to use, empty, & reset! When you're setting it, just tilt it back a little so the 'trip pad' tilts upward & locks into place.

A solid product that does what it says it will do

These traps did exactly what they advertised. I laid out four traps with some old crunchy peanut butter I had laying around in the little cup on the trap and within a half hour I had my first mouse. It was effective and caught the mouse by the head and probably killed it quickly. You can dump the mouse out and reset it without even touching the mouse. I dumped the first one and then reset it. A few hours later, I got another on in the same trap. After that, I didn't catch any more for over a day but I decided to leave the traps out. I thought maybe I got them all but the next day I got another one that was a lot bigger than the other two. This time it caught the mouse in the middle and I think it might have been a little less humane than I would have liked but that is the nature of the trap. No guarantee it will be quick and painless. Overall, a good product but you have to understand this is not necessarily as quick and painless for the mouse as maybe a electric shock one would be. If you care about such things, that is. It is, for me, a necessary evil as the little pests were chewing up stored clothes and leaving mouse turds on my kitchen surfaces.

Three for three in the first 24 hours...

We have a cat who is a very good mouser, but who doesn't have regular access to an unfinished basement storage area where I recently discovered signs of mice. While I don't have any fundamental gripe with mice, I have a healthy respect for the risk of disease that comes from their droppings, and prefer not to have the things I have stored get chewed and re-purposed into nesting materials. Co-existence within the house isn't an option...so mouse traps are the answer. I deployed three varieties of traps in multiple locations. Pictured is one placed on utility shelving where I saw recent droppings. I used peanut butter in the bait well, and have had three kills in the first 24 hours of use. While I wasn't present for any of the catches the jaws made their contact with the mouse in the rear head/neck area. I'm highly confident the dispatch was quick (and I hope the frequency of catches decreases as the herd thins). Easy to set, does an unpleasant job effectively. Select with confidence.

I would like to say that I am very sorry that it's ...

About a year ago I saw a mouse. I put out some sticky traps and he got out of it. We saw him a couple more times and then he disappeared. I figured he left and found another home after maybe 6 to 9 months of nothing. Boy was I wrong. I suddenly started seeing a mouse a couple times a day. I bought more stickys but they caught a couple then nothing. I started finding them in the bathtub in the morning which is where they were getting water. I blocked all of the entrances where they were lodging. If you are unsure where they live you can powder the floors before bed and see what foot steps were left overnight. We have caught so many in the past few weeks its crazy. We are at 15 mice. There were 2 more traps just last night that went off. We have a total of 6 set at a time when it goes off we replace that trap. We are now only catching babies which means we've gotten the parents and now they babies are scavenging for food and water. I would like to say that I am very sorry that it's come to these traps but there seems to not be a humane way that works. Peppermint oil doesn't work, stickies don't work and if they do for the first couple times putting oil on the mouse away from the house does not help. They never got out. Just starved to death on the trap. These are quick and don't cause suffering unless they get caught the wrong way. Which has happened just once out of 15 times.

Secure your trap and your catch!

I have been very successful and catching mice with his product but the one problem is that sometimes they get caught by the tail and they run away taking the trap with them or an animal like a cat will take the free meal and the trap way. So I set the Trap inside a cage which has openings big enough for the mice to get in but not to get out with the Trap caught on their tail. I can't can't get it and drag it away and if it snaps really hard it can't fly in the air and land where you can't find it. Also keeps pets from eating your bait or setting off the Trap.

The best mouse traps on the market!

When we found some mice in our garage near where we keep the dog food, it was war. We sealed all potential entrance holes to the garage with stuffed steel wool covered in caulk, and then tried several different traps found in stores such as the old metal and wood snap type, the circular disks that close and completely enclose the dead mouse body when a mouse goes in the little door (and then get thrown away- expensive!) and more. These were hands down the best traps- and the best part is, they could be used again and again. They never missed the mouse and we never found one empty. You wouldn't think plastic could kill mice, but the alligator-like teeth on these and the strong snap action caught mouse after mouse until now they have remained empty for almost a year. The best part is they are reusable. You can just open the trap without ever touching the mouse to let the poor little guy fall into a garbage bin, reset it, and go. 9 out of 10 times we didn't even need to re-bait it, because the mouse was dead long before he got to enjoy his final meal. They are super sensitive, so a mouse barely has to sniff the bait and they're a goner. Some poor little mice suffered with legs or tails caught in the old wood/metal snap traps we used before these, but these never missed the kill and the mice were goners before they knew what hit them. We caught so many mice using a dot of peanut butter in the bait hole with a tiny piece of sugary-carb cereal (like rice crispies or Frosted Flakes) stuck in it. We tried several other baits, but that worked the best. If you want mice gone quick and effectively, seal off their entrances and then get these!
