Feeke Mouse Traps, Mice Traps for House, Small Mice Trap Indoor Quick Effective Sanitary Safe Mousetrap Catcher for Family and Pet - 6 Pack, (M01-6Pack)

I was skeptical as there are always people who give bad reviews. But I was also desperate. I live in the country so occasional mice are an issue but this seems to be an infestation larger than normal. Poison wasn't working - probably poisoning one mouse but not the batch. I liked the look of these for easy set up and because they were re-usable. The traps came this afternoon. I only set up 2 of the 6 from the pack. Super easy. Within one hour of setting it up (while I was sitting in the same room!) the trap went off and I had my first mouse. Disposed of it in 2 seconds and took another 2 seconds to re-set the same trap. I didn't even need to rebait it. Within another hour and a half (still sitting in same room) I had my second mouse (same trap). These do the job and even if they do konk out after a few uses it will be worth the money as they are cheap for the price. One note - I used a VERY tiny amount of peanut butter (like half a pinky nail in size and put it down deep in the bait bowl. Don't pile it up or use a lot as it gives the mouse the ability to possibly eat and retreat without setting anything off. By putting it down in the cup he has to reach his head in there for it. Likewise, don't avoid the cup and put it back further in the trap....the bait bowl seems designed to make sure their neck is in line when it closes. If you put the bait too far back in the trap you may not catch its neck so use as directed, I will definitely buy these again if I need them!!!! Update - still working great. Still using same 2 traps. 4 mice caught so far by these traps (3 in one trap, 1 in another) and I haven't had to re-bait either trap yet. I don't know why I wasn't using these all along so much faster and more effective than poison! Update 4/16 - 1 year later and still going GREAT! I have still only used 2 traps out of the entire pack. The springs are still working fantastic and they are just as lethal as when I bought them a year ago so WELL worth the price!!! They continue to work after more than a year, and I still have spares if/when I need them. There is no blood or mess so the traps don't get gross. This is a clean kill to the skull or neck. I just toss the dead mice out and reset - and occasionally refill the little bait cup with fresh peanut butter. If these are not working for you then you are not setting them in the right place. I have two different types of mice getting in because I'm in the country. Normal "house" mice and lighter brown field mice. These traps have long since exterminated the regular house mice so they worked to get rid of this type 100%....but then I started getting field mice. I think they found a way into my sunroom from the outside wall. At any rate. At first, the traps would not catch them, and were even going off at times w/o catching anything. The trap would be snapped closed - but no mouse. I quickly realized these new mice were coming and going in a different part of the room. The place I had set the traps that worked on the house mice was not ideal anymore because the paths they were moving along were different. So I moved the traps to where I saw and heard the activity. Now these same two traps are catching field mice like gangbusters. I went from catching 2 mice a day to every other day to now only once every 1-2 weeks so I am sure I'm getting this infestation under control as well. If you know you have mice but are not catching anything try these tips: 1. Put the trap against something like a box or a baseboard so that it is parallel to that object. Do not set them out in the open. Mice like to keep to the walls for safety and feel exposed if they are in the open. The traps that do best for me are always the ones where the trap is set right against a vertical surface like a wall or a box so that the mice encounter it while running along their "safe" paths. 2. If the traps keep going off but you are not catching anything there are two possibilities. One - you have rats not mice and the traps are too small. Two - they are not getting far enough into the trap and are able to jump free when it triggers. One solution to try is to only put a tiny bit of peanut butter way down inside the bait cup rather than over-filling the cup with a huge hunk of peanut butter. Using less makes them have to reach further in to get the bait. Less is more. Also...remember to refresh the peanut butter occasionally. It gets dry and crumbly and fresh stuff works best. My mice don't last long enough to eat the bait so I eventually have to clean out the crusty peanut butter and put in new stuff. Then the traps start catching mice again. 3. TIP: Remove all sources of food from the area or put it in plastic bins. I figured out what caused my two infestations. I had a bag of granola bars that had fallen behind something and was attracting them. Even if food is in a bag like pretzels etc...they can still smell it and will keep coming back.

Works, within an hour of placing it down it got it, during the day too. It is very easy to set, though putting the bait in was a bit of a pain since It would block the trigger pad if I put too much (Which was user error) so since I have never used mouse traps before use wayyyy less bait than you think you need. Its all plastic with a metal spring so it should be easy to clean though. Edit: I have caught 10 mice total so far in the last 4 days. (How did I not notice them for this long) And basically it took some time finding good spots but once you find them just keep resetting them. There was a 1 trap which triggered and bait was taken but no mouse but today I checked and I got 4 mice in them and I must say the mice literally get crushed. which is nuts since it didn't hurt my finger at all. Yep definitely worth it.

These mouse traps are absolutely amazing. We live on a ranch and have been fighting mice since we moved here. I've used rolling traps, and the old-fashioned wood snap traps. I thought we had gotten rid of most of the mice, then I noticed there was one really obnoxious little mouse, he would run across the counter top, then stop and look at one of the mousetraps, he woukd sniff it then turn and run away. One day he ran across the top of the TV screen, he stopped and stared at me, twitched his little whiskers and ran off, oh the war was on. Seriously this felt like an old episode of Tom and Jerry with the mouse always getting the better of us. Out of desperation I ordered these traps. Baited them with a bit of peanut butter and a little sliver of dog jerky which they for some reason love. I know they love them because they chew holes in every bag we get. So I set out two of these mouse traps with baited with peanut butter and dog jerky treats. I placed one on the counter and the other one behind my recliner where I sit. It couldn't have been much more than about 5 minutes when I heard this weird noise. I didn't recognize it cuz I'm so used to the other snap traps. When my wife said you know I think that might have been one of the new mouse traps. Sure enough I looked behind the chair, and there he is, Jerry all bloody twitchy and dying. Yep none of those humane traps around here. The one thing I will say is these aren't nearly as powerful as the old wood snap traps, the old wood snap traps would break their necks and kill them almost instantaneously. These aren't quite as powerful, don't get me wrong they kill them but sometimes it doesn't kill them right away. Sometimes They'll sit there twitching for a while, a few times we've had to search for the trap as they've drug it off. They don't drag it far. But seriously these things are super easy to bait, super easy to clean, they don't hurt nearly as bad if you get snapped in the finger with one. And they're reusable. But the most important part is they work and they work much better than the old wood traps. Within the first day of using them we caught eight mice. It's like my whole day was spent doing nothing but cleaning and baiting these mouse traps. We have literally eradicated every mouse in every living space on our property. It's been probably two weeks since we've caught a mouse, I see no traces of them, no mouse droppings, no chew holes in potato chip bags, flower bags or sugar bags. We do have traps out continuously, we need to rebait them once a week because the peanut butter and dog jerky treats tend to dry out. So like I said if you're on the fence about these, just buy them they're worth every penny. With that said you might have to experiment with what your mice like to eat. Not hard to figure it out just go through your pantry and find out what they've been getting into and bait it with that. Around here it was the dog jerky treats that they liked. Another tip is come springtime the mice are less interested in eating and more interested in mating so baiting traps with food isn't quite as effective as it is the rest of the year. During the springtime I recommend getting some pheromone bait and putting a couple drops in the bait holder. Along with a couple bits of string, they like string and yarn for their nests.

Took care of the problem. More durable than the old wooden ones.

This snap trap is the real deal! I've tried those "humane" traps and sticky pads before, but nothing works as quickly and effectively as this old-fashioned snap trap. It's incredibly sturdy and well-made, and the trigger mechanism is very sensitive. I was able to catch the pesky mouse that had been raiding my pantry quickly! Baiting it is super easy, and it feels much more sanitary than dealing with a glue trap. Plus, it's reusable, so I can keep it on hand for any future unwanted visitors. Highly recommend this trap for anyone who needs a reliable and effective solution to a mouse problem.

Caught the mouse 30 minutes after getting the package delivered

These traps are really great: they are easy to set up and easy to trigger (for mice). Unlike the guillotine traps I used to use, the mice don't get the opportunity to eat any of the peanut butter before becoming bird food.

They do the job. Caught three pesky rodents first night and a fourth the next. Mouse problem (almost) gone away
