OWLTRA Electric Mouse Trap, Instant Kill Rodent Zapper with Dual Infrared Pet Safe Trigger (Small)

It is straightforward to use and is effective.

The trap works really well. I’ve killed so many mice, TOO many. I had no idea there were this many mice getting into my apartment. 12 mice in 8 days. I wish it didn’t have to be reset between kills. Because I keep waking up with the green light flashing, there’s a dead mouse inside and the bait is totally gone. So a living mouse is climbing over his friends dead body for a snack. Today I opened it to the most horrifying sight. TWO MICE INSIDE. One dead, one alive and eating the dead one’s face. I wish I was joking. I might be traumatized from this mouse trap. But yes, 5 stars.

Très bon produit malgré certains autres commentaires négatifs J’ai essayé en un mois 6 souris pris dans le piège J’avais tout essayé avant enfin quelques chose efficace le tout bien placé le piège choisir le bon endroit contre un mur la où elle passe le plus et surtout le bon appât le meilleur appât que J’ai trouvé après des tas essaie barre de céréales aux pommes et surtout laver le piège après capture soupalin imbibé un peu eau car la souris sent les odeurs de produits et votre piège sera bon pour la poubelle mettre toujours des gants latex quand Vous utilisez le piège au déballage du piège à la réception la moindre odeur humaine sur le piège rendra inefficace le piège

Très efficace. Bien conçu. A éliminé 17 souris en 3 jours, j'avais vraiment une grande famille de souris qui me narguait de puis quelques temps. Problème résolu grâce à cet appareil. Les souris meurent sans souffrir durant plusieurs jours. Une fin rapide et propre. Je recommande sans hésiter.

I've been inundated with mice the past month or two. I'm not sure why they're suddenly moving into my apartment. I've lived here since 2013 and have never had rodent problems. But whatever. My problem is getting rid of them, not studying their motivations. I was using those tunnel traps from KatSense. They've got the snap jaw mechanism in the middle of the tunnel. And they worked great with the first 4-5 mice. But then the trigger plate stop being so responsive, and next thing I knew I was subsidizing the mice's calorie intake instead of killing them. I'd set the trap, and when I checked it 24 hours later, it was still set but all the peanut butter was gone! It was infuriating. So, went back to Amazon to look into different, hopefully more reliable traps. That's when I came across this OWLTRA Electric Mouse Trap. Instead of relying on a trigger plate and mechanical action to catch the mouse, it's got a metal floor that's hooked to a bank of 4 AA batteries! You put a little stale peanut butter in the bait cup on the far side of the trap (stale peanut butter is a significantly better bait than fresh peanut butter), and set the trap by sliding the power button to the On position. It'll give you a single green light flash letting you know it's properly set, then you just set it along a wall that your mouse likes to travel along. When he approaches the trap, he'll smell the peanut butter and walk inside. As soon as he walks into the trap beyond the doorway, an infrared switch will detect his presence and arm the trap. Then, as he continues to make his way to the bait cup, he walks across the metal floor and those nice AA batteries dump 8000 volts of electricity into the mouse for 90sec, killing him quickly and humanely. Once the mouse is dead, your trap will flash a green indicator light every 10sec so you know you got one. You just remove the lid with the battery pack, and dump the dead mouse outside somewhere. Inspect the trap to make sure it still has peanut butter in it, and the floor is clean and free of debris. Press the lid back into place, power on the trap, and place it in a spot where mice continue to harass you. It's so easy! This trap is superior to tunnel traps, and other mechanical jaw-type traps because mechanical mechanisms come with the possibility of failure, allowing the mice to eat the bait without triggering the trap. There's no mechanics (no moving parts) involved with this fantastic electric trap making it more reliable. It also doesn't come with the potential to leave the mouse alive in agony with a broken back or leg. The electricity passes from the metal floor into the mouse, stopping his heart immediately. And since there's no mechanical jaw crushing down, there's no messy cleanup. Just an intact, dead mouse that was here one minute and gone the next. The say one set of 4 AA batteries can dispatch 60-80 mice, so it's an energy-efficient solution, as well. I picked up a 24-pack of Powermax AA batteries at the same time I ordered the trap for only $6.79, and I believe that will keep my trap fully armed and ready to take out mice for at least a few years. If you're like me, and losing your mind trying to figure out the best, most efficient and effective trap to address your indoor mouse problem, forget about it. You found it. If you're a Prime member, you can have this bad boy delivered to your home as soon as tomorrow. Setup takes 2min, and then you just sit back and relax. Check the trap once a day for the green light, and that's it!
