5.0 out of 5 stars They work really, really well
I am giving these traps five stars. I have had a couple of issues, but I really think it’s because rats are wily little creatures, not because the traps have anything wrong with them. I purchased the four pack, and even if you think you only have one rat, I would suggest doing the same. Because if you’re like me, you may quickly find out that your rat problem is bigger than you thought.Baiting the traps is simple, and you can refill the bait safely even when the traps are set. The rats at our house were coming up onto our lanai/deck looking for dog food, and I have found that the best bait for them is peanut butter with a couple of little dog kibbles stuck into it.The directions for setting the traps are clear and not difficult to follow. I would caution that when you feel the trap click as you’re setting it, make sure it’s FULLY clicked before you take your hand away. Take your hand away slowly, just in case it wants to spring back open. I use the side of my hand to push the lever down now, because the first time I did it, it did not click all the way, sprang back up and my finger got a little pinched. But at no point is your hand going to be anywhere near the actual jaws of the trap. That is safely hidden inside the unit.The instructions do not explain at all how to release a dead rat once it is caught. It’s probably obvious, but I did have a few moments of hesitation when I had to do it the first time. It’s simple though, you just squeeze the lever down (you will know what I mean when you have to do it) and turn the unit on its end, and the rat will slide out.The problems I’ve had have to do with small/juvenile rats. Sometimes they will make it all the way into the trap (I.e., between the jaws) before it is set off, and in that case it is possible for them to survive. Unfortunately, I’ve had a couple of instances of rats that were injured rather than killed. Being a person who loves animals and already feels some guilt about the whole process, that is difficult for me to deal with. Also, I have had instances with two and once even three rats getting caught in the same trap at the same time. And in that case, the second or third rat sometimes does not get killed. Again, not super pleasant. But also not really a flaw with the traps. I’ve had these traps for about a month now, and I think I’ve caught 15 or 16 rats. Only two of them have not been dead. And none of them have been gross – no blood or anything like that.So overall, I do highly recommend these traps. You may experience a few issues, but the safety and ease of use for me make them well worth the money and small inconveniences.
5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to bait and effective
Works exactly as intended. The through-tunnel design makes it easy to set up at an entrance hole or along a rodent pathway. I set one trap in front of a gap in the shed and caught the large rat that was trying to make a home under the mower. Bait cup is easy to remove from underneath to fill. Seems to work ok without bait as well, as I had one set up along a wall where a rat had been seen and unintentionally caught a chipmunk. Appears to make a clean kill and easy to reset. Much easier to work with than a traditional rat trap, and the tunnel keeps them centered on the trigger so they don't get caught in a bad way.
5.0 out of 5 stars Good product.
Easy to use and clean. Worked well and caught 3 rats in 3 days. Highly recommend, easy and a high quality reliable product.
4.0 out of 5 stars Doesn’t work on adult squirrels
Like:It is unlikely to harm pets or children as long as they are not attracted by the bait and sticking their paws or fingers into it from the sides to figure out what it is.Sturdy enough to put outside and keeps the rain off of your bait.Can be reused if you can get the rodent out of your trap…(I have had to throw the trap away because the rodent was really stuck in there)Dislike:Kind of a challenge to set - probably because it’s much stronger than a mouse trap would be.Does not really work on squirrels because it is not large enough for adults.————————-You can’t reset it just with your foot you have to also hold the trap steady while you are pressing down the lever. Or you can squeeze it if your hand is strong enough while you’re holding it in the other hand.Seems pretty effective on chipmunks. I caught two within a week.Also caught a rat.And a half grown squirrel.Be aware that sometimes these rodents get stuck in the trap so you might need to get a disposable glove to pull it out, unless you want to sacrifice your trap. (especially something kind of big like a half grown squirrel or a really fat chipmunk)I’m skeptical about how easy it is to clean it from the gory residue that is bound to be in these after repeated use- You can’t disassemble the trap and if you’re squirting water into it, you’re going to spring the trap. So it’s gonna be impossible to really clean the killing mechanism.Overall more satisfied with us than other types of trap.It has gotten me relief from the constant destruction of my patio plants, And ruining of my container vegetables .Whereas non-lethal methods were ineffective.(And relocating these pests is not actually kind because other animals in the area of the same species are going to attack them as intruders)
5.0 out of 5 stars Works great on mice, too
Thought I had rats, but turns out it was mice. This trap catches them just fine, for me. I baited it with creamy peanut butter and set it against a wall near the foundation hole they were using. I've had the traps trip four times so far, with three kills.The trap is quite strong, and for mice at least, is producing an instant kill. That's important to me, since I don't want them to suffer needlessly. As a guess, I suspect it'd kill rats instantly as well.The trap is quite light, and one or more animals seem to be moving it a bit, but that's not really a problem. I was worried that it might catch squirrels or even a curious cat paw, but so far that hasn't happened.It's helpful to know where the rodents travel. In my case, there were two obvious openings under my foundation. I blocked them both lightly with cardboard and was then able to observe which was being chewed open again. If you can't locate them, you might benefit from buying more than two traps.I'll note that this might not be big enough to trap a serious New York or Los Angeles rat, some of which are the size of medium cats. If they can't fit in the tunnel, they can't be trapped.
