Title: If you use your brain, you will catch mice
Review: I saw a lot of reviews from people complaining that the mice wouldn't go in the trap, but within hours after setting mine out I caught three mice, with two of those being in the same trap. The mice, for reference, are white-footed mice. I used peanut butter on a scrap of wax paper as bait.Place the trap with the lid up so that both doors are against a wall. The hinge for the top cover is stiff, a mouse would never be able to open it.Placement really matters here, you can do everything else right but you won't catch a single mouse if you put the trap somewhere the mouse isn't already going. If you see a mouse dart along a wall out of the corner of your eye, and that makes you want to buy these traps, remember exactly where you saw the mouse. Put the trap there. This trap will catch the mouse.As for how humane the traps are, I can't imagine they're particularly cozy given the traps are metal, but they will not injure the mice. I released the three mice just this morning, and they all hopped right out of the trap and sprinted away at top speed, so I know they weren't hurt.Make sure you release the mice several miles away from your home unless you want them to come back. >5 miles minimum.Just expect the trap to get filthy if you catch mice in it. They're mice. They are going to poop and in the trap, it's just what they do. You can rinse it clean and set them out again.Would absolutely recommend this product to anyone with a mouse problem. It's cheap, it works, and it's easy to use. Exactly what I wanted.

Title: Best multi catch I have ever tried
Review: I have come to prefer the Victor Tin Cat to other multi catch traps because you don't have to wind this up every day. There's no bucket of water with decomposing mice in it. You can use this as a humane trap and check it every day, or leave this in place and empty it of dead mice later. It's well made and super easy to use - No setting, no springs, no winding - just set it down. Very versatile.I do suggest some bait inside.

Title: Complete Failure
Review: This trap does not work. This mouse trap is simply ill designed. After catching several mice with the plastic cube type mouse trap (Mouse Cube I think is the brand) I thought I would try this one. It failed completely.I think the problem is the design. The mouse must walk up a ramp to get into the trap. The ramp is made out of tin, like the rest of the trap, and is extremely stiff. This ramps does not pivot or otherwise swing up or down. The weight of the mouse has to force the tin ramp down or it can’t get in. The opening where the ramp comes closest to the top is extremely small and I don’t think the mouse can get past it unless the ramp moves, but it is too stiff to do that.Another flaw is you can’t see what is in the trap without picking it up and look through the side slots. There are no slots on top.The top does not snap shut, it merely closes without any latch or friction mechanism to keep it shut. I put a rock on top of it so the mouse couldn’t push it open. The top isn’t so heavy that a mouse couldn’t push it up.The instructions are all but worthless. Basically its open trap, put in bate, close trap.For bate I used peanut butter on a Ritz cracker. This has never failed in the past, so I think the failure this time can be attributed to the mouse trap.This is an expensive trap, but the cost of an item that fails to work is more than the price paid. The costs will include shipping, the time to discover the trap has failed, and the cost of a new trap.AD2

Title: A classic design that works!
Review: The Tin Cat is a simple classic humane trap that works well. The large container allows for easily placed bait and adequate space for your trapped critter until you relocate them. One note- the weight and force required for a rodent to enter the trap doesn't work well for baby mice (they are just too small). These are easy to clean - we pop ours open and into the dishwasher to remove peanut butter remnants.

Title: Good idea, but yet to catch my crafty mice
Review: This Humane Mouse Trap is well made, inexpensive and appears to be a good idea. I baited it with both whole almonds, which my mice can't resist and also peanut butter. It's been set for several months and has yet to be entered once, as evidenced by the untouched bait. It is in a highly trafficked mouse route. I have caught 32 mice in the meantime in my single mouse small wire cage trap placed nearby.Now, there are different mice in different areas with different behaviors. My mice are White Footed Deer Mice, who are deep woods dwelling mice. They are of average size and extremely energetic and aerobic. They explore and get into literally everything. But, they have no interest in entering this trap. I can not explain why. They like holes and this trap has two. They literally have to climb over it to get around.I suspect there are many mice that can't resist it. I really wish it would work for my mice. I have to sometimes get up several times a night to empty my box trap into a bucket to be later transported to a location about eight miles away. They will come back within a week from a mile or less. Yes, I proved this with a dab of red paint on their tails.I hope I have found their last open entry hole, and will be mouse free for a time until they find, or make another. There are thousands in my woods.I can't get above three stars, as it doesn't work at all for me. But, I like the design idea, and I'm sure other less crafty mice will like it, as evidenced by many positive accolades. It may well be worth a try for you.

Review: Solo quiero compartir que soy muy feliz con esta trampa. Yo creo que cumple con la función de trampa humanitaria. Ya que no es como otras que hacen súper ruido y son súper malvadas. Esta me gustó la verdad yo no esperaba que atrapara nada. Me llego ayer así que solo la saqué del empaque y naaa más tarde pongo el cebo y la dejé olvidada pegada a la pared y hoy al despertar cual fue mi sorpresa? Ya estaba habitada por un ratón. Me siento más tranquila porque había tenido que usar de esas trampas feas de pegamento y se que era horrible para el ratón y para mi. Esta es una alternativa muy buena tanto para ellos como para uno. Saludos!

Review: Dopo aver provato le trappole a gabbietta classiche, che non hanno funzionato, con questa mi sono trovata benissimo. Ho già catturato e liberato vivi 5 topini. E' importante posizionare la trappola con le due aperture (una per lato) vicine al muro, in un punto che sia sulla loro traiettoria. Dentro ho messo un biscotto doppio farcito di cioccolata. Ci si accorge della cattura perchè il topo a tratti corre freneticamente avanti e indietro andando a sbattere sulle due bascule agli ingressi, quindi si sente tac tac tac, come un metronomo. Ma comunque è possibile vedere dentro dalle fessure che si vedono in foto, senza dover aprire la trappola. Comodo anche da "eliminare", si porta la scatola fuori senza rischio di venire a contatto col topo, io la appoggio per terra, apro il coperchio, e lui se ne va tranquillamente nella direzione opposta a me.

Review: excellent moyen de les capturer sans leur faire de mal. Le meilleur score: 4 d'un coup. Bien sûr, relâchées dans la nature loin des habitations ensuite. On en a bien attrapé une quinzaine en quelques jours. Elles étaient devenues très effrontées et allaient directement dans la volière de mes oiseaux et commençaient à grimper le long des barreaux pour grignoter les graines en hauteur. Le plus simple a été de mettre le piège directement dans la volière....tout à veillant à faire place nette autour, pour qu'elles soient plus intéressées par le contenu du piège que par les graines éparses.Pour augmenter l'efficacité, coincer un tout petit morceau de gâteau juste au bout de la trappe d'accès et parsemer de sucre ou céréales la trappe d'accès (par les petits trous du haut). Ce qui fait qu'elles avancent dans la trappe sans se rendre compte qu'elles se font coincer.Certaines sont très malignes.... il y en a une qui a réussi à ressortir, je ne sais pas trop comment, une autre s'était cachée sous la trappe d'accès, ce qui fait que j'ai cru que la boîte était vide et quand j'ai ouvert pour vérifier quand même, elle a bondi dans le jardin...Il m'en reste encore une à attraper, si c'est l'une de celles qui a déjà expérimenté le piège, cela va être plus difficile. Je renouvelle l'appât tous les jours pour qu'il soit frais (gâteau, céréales, chocolat, etc...).En conclusion, c'est très propre et il n'y a pas de mise à mort. Sûrement du stress pour elles, mais dès que je vois qu'il y en a une, je ne tarde pas pour la relâcher.
