Humane Mouse Trap | Catch and Release Mouse Traps That Work | Mice Trap No Kill for mice/Rodent Pet Safe (Dog/Cat) Best Indoor/Outdoor Mousetrap Catcher Non Killer Small Capture Cage (Blue)

So I put out a bunch of traps because I wasn’t sure how to catch this little mouse in my house. I was hoping he would go for this one because I didn’t wanna kill him, but I tried you main traps before that never worked. This one actually is much better than the one I tried previously because you can see if you’ve caught a mouse where is the other ones you just sort of have to guess if there’s a mouse inside, assuming it’s in there if it’s closed and then you’ll go somewhere to let them out and maybe nothing comes out. I walked into my kitchen today and I leaned down and peed into the trap and I saw two little eyes staring up at me. I was so glad I didn’t have to kill him cause there was a snap trap set up a foot away. It was very easy to transport, I just lifted it up and I brought gloves with me in case I needed to handle something, but I didn’t need to do any of that. I just opened up the area where the food was and he zoomed out so fast. It was like he was flying. He wasn’t hurt at all, just a little scared, and it was super easy to release him. I could not be happier with this trap. It was so simple. I was so worried. But so easy. oh also, I put peanut butter in the trap and nothing came and I added a little chocolate crumbs to the front and that’s when it worked.

Update, after catching first mouse within hours, at least one other mouse kept going for a week. My son saw it go into my room a day before I felt it run across my feet. haha. I moved one of the traps to my room, but caught no mice. My son asked to call an exterminator after a mouce ran onto his bed and was later spotted on top of the kitchen trash can. We repositioned our few traps to have one along the hallway wall leading back to our rooms, and son put the other two in what he thought were better spots in the kitchen and his room after replacing the old apple pieces with fresh lettuce pieces. I also placed an order for a 12-pack of sticky traps and decided it would just be up to God whether the mouse (or 2 remaining mice) got one of the dozen sticky traps or one of the few friendlier traps. Then a few moments later, the last or next to last mouse ran into the kitchen trap.So... if the mice elude the traps for awhile, try repositioning them, order a more painful trap, say an Our Father, then cancel the sticky trap order after the mouse runs into the merciful trap.We ordered two 2-packs and paid a few dollars for same day delivery after my son saw a couple of rats run along his wall. (They were just lost and confused or they'd have been in the kitchen. :) I think all the lawnmowing and hedge trimming nearby scared them into our building.) We happened to have a couple of apples, and Google said rats like plants nuts and fruit, so we cut up a few small pieces of apple to place into the traps. If the apple chunk is big enough to set off the trap itself, just cut it in half a time or two until it can sit in the trap without setting it off. Since we were confident that the rats would most likely stay running along the baseboard looking for ways out, we set a pair of traps in one corner and a pair of traps in the other corner of the room looking down the walls. The idea was to be able to catch a rat whether it was running clockwise or cuonter-clockwise along the walls. We placed the traps at around 10pm and my sun woke me up before sunrise to let me know that one of the traps had caught a rat. He also informed me that he had already released it out at a park a few blocks away where it was least likely to bother anyone. He said the trap was full of rat crap though because the rat had been terrified, so he dropped the empty soiled trap in a trash can on his way back. The traps are inexpensive enough to consider disposable rather than play with rat crap. He promptly moved one of the empty traps to where that trap had been in hopes of catching the second rat that he saw yesterday. (The last time we saw a rat was before the pandemic, we laid down a couple of traps in his room, and I listened to curious rustling in my closet for a few days. Then that rat from years ago seemed to just disappear like maybe it found its way back outside on its own.)Anyway, we can verify that the traps work. It might help to have them snug against walls or under furniture or some kind of clutter so they blend in with the terrain of the room from the rat's perspective. I'm pretty sure a rat would just look at it suspiciously if you have it sitting out by itself somewhere. :) Also they were gala apple chunks that we put in the traps, not bland or sour, so that might've been something. No ants or other bugs running around, so I'm sure the rats were just lost. Kind of glad the traps are working before the apple chunks have a chance to attract ants from somewhere. :) (Property managers are good with pest control, so it's been years since we briefly saw ants, and my son keeps his room pretty clean nowadays. He's just on the outer corner of the whole building with nice views, but more nature along his walls. :)) Goodluck!

I've just received the order, haven't caught any mouse yet, but tested it by hand, and I'm happy with the purchase.It's roughly about 16 ounces of space on the narrow side. If you want to catch a rat, this is not it. It's designed for a small mouse. It would also be difficult to capture 2 mice at the same time unless they're both inside. Also, the release is by mouse weight on a pressure pad. If a mouse stepped onto the pressure pad, it would lift that pad and spring the trap. The only issue I found so far is that I put quite a bit of pressure to spring the trap, and I don't think a small mouse would be able to do it. If you have an issue capturing a small mouse with this trap, consider double-sided tape, something (like a couple of coins) underneath the pressure pad to add to the weight. You want it to spring even if a feather landed on it. This will guarantee to capture of very small mice, even big bugs.

The first mouse was caught within an hour, which was great! I was glad I was awake because the end of its tail was caught in the door. Easily released and didn't seem injured but I decided to use the traps only when I was awake because the mouse was frantic and the results of a long overnight wait might have been awful for both of us. My husband blocked every possible entry and since catching two more the following night, probably from under the stove, we've seen no more droppings. The three mice were released outdoors using a butter knife at an angle to keep the door open. Only improvement suggested might be that the trap be a little longer to avoid tail pinching
