Victor M250S No Touch, No See Upgraded Electronic Mousetrap Black

This is a seriously cool mouse trap! This thing makes me feel like I’m living in the future. Not only does it look the business but it’s also super easy to setup and provides a tidy, mess free mouse trapping environment. The problem with standard traps is that they can be messy when successfully activated. The problem with sticky traps is that they are effective but awfully cruel and a nightmare if you stand on one or have pets. The problem with humane traps is that mice (in my experience) just don’t use them and even if they did, they can be cruel too if you’re on holiday somewhere and the poor thing is left to starve to death. This trap, then, is the best of all worlds. It’s super easy to setup. You just separate the two compartments and put 4xAA batteries in the left side. You then open the right side (the mouse catching bit) and put a big dollop of peanut butter on the end panel. This, cleverly, has a plastic wall next to it which is perforated with holes to let the mouse sniff the goodness inside! You then click both pieces back together and switch on. When you do this, a green light shows and there is a satisfying buzz/hum to let you know that the electrification mechanism is armed. You then place the box next to a wall in a troublesome area and wait for a curious mouse to sniff the peanut butter, enter the trap and be immediately electrocuted. It’s quick, effective and there’s no mess. If a mouse enters the trap and actives it, the trap flashes a green light on top to let you know that it’s caught something. You can then safely switch it off, dispose of the mouse and wipe out the container ready for re-arming. This thing is seriously cool and works like a dream. After unsuccessfully attempted to remove mice with the other type of traps, this thing attracted and disposed of them straight away. Yes, it’s more expensive than your standard traps but it’s way more effective, much cleaner and you don’t run the risk of causing immense pain to your fingers when the setup process goes wrong! Snap!!! Highly recommended!

I bought two of these in and placed them upstairs where we'd had several sightings of a mouse. I also set a couple of traditional traps in the garage (where I think the mouse was coming in from). Over the ensuing months, the traps in the garage caught a couple of field mice (definitely not the mouse we'd seen), and our visitor was sighted several times more, until.... he was caught in one of the garage mousetraps. Once I was sure there was no mouse activity, I decided to clean these electronic traps and put them away for future use, and imagine my surprise when I opened them to find no trace of bait. None! Obviously the mouse had helped himself to the bait at some point, with no bad effects. Complete waste of money, and they're not cheap. Very annoyed.

A collection of mice moved into the shed and proceeded to tear into everything like an ageing rock star smashing up a hotel room. The mess was indescribable, although I can try - they basically shredded almost everything and what the couldn't shred they used as a toilet. Cleared all the mess out and wanted a trap that would be fast and humane, but which wouldn't muck about. So, on a friend's advice, we got this ... baited with peanut butter and it works a treat. Light didn't flash when making a kill though so still have to check daily but that's a good habit to get into - the only thing that smells worse than a live mouse's pee is a dead mouse. No mess because it doesn't physically injured the mouse, just electrocutes them. No idea on battery life yet as we've not had it long enough, but it does what it claims to, and to all mice in the area I'd just like to say You Have Been Warned - we're kindly folk but if you smash our shed up we're going to war. Capice?

Have had multiple of these now. Excellent at killing one or two mice, but after that the unit seems to stop functioning. The footplate gets a scorch mark on it, and the trap will no longer kill. Light flashes green but no mouse inside. Replacing batteries doesn't fix it. I think these traps burn themselves out.

Oggetto consigliatissimo!!! In casa avevo notato "tracce" di un topolino che, furbo, schivava le varie tavolette adesive. Ho voluto provare con questa trappola. Per iniziare ho messo semplicemente delle noccioline americane (arachidi) in un piattino di plastica per vedere se l'esca era gradita: spolverate! Poi sono passato ad inserire le noccioline nella trappola, ma tenendola spenta: noccioline spolverate Infine ho messo le noccioline nella trappola accesa: ZAP! Ospite beccato! Il secondo giorno ho provato a spostare la trappola in un altro luogo: altro ospite beccato! Note importanti: 1) maneggiate meno possibile trappola e esca, i topi sono molto diffidenti dall'odore dell'uomo 2) la trappola deve essere con l'ingresso messo lungo un muro 3) lavate accuratamente la parte con l'esca dopo ogni cattura (si lava con acqua e sapone) 4) Stranamente con la seconda cattura lampeggiava la luce rosse (batterie scariche) invece di quella verde, anche se le batterie erano cariche 5) Il led di avvenuta cattura lampeggia MOOOOLTO lentamente (circa 10/15 secondi) 6) Usate batterie con discreto amperaggio (Duracell). Io la uso con ricaricabili NI-Mh da 2500 mAh e non fa una piega! 7) Prima di mettere in funzione la trappola individuate, col metodo di cui sopra, l'esca adatta

Funciona muy bien. Lo único, hay que colocar el cebo con cuidado para que no toque el metal, porque si no, se mantiene activada y te quedas sin batería. Eso sí: sólo vale para ratones pequeños.

Unfortunately this trap was only a trap for my money :( I have clear signs of mice in my house and I have tried using this trap all ways possible. It is almost as if the rats are laughing at you with it. I have tried several times with the recommended bait (peanut butter), and it didn’t work. Then I realized the rats were always going towards my dog’s treats, so I decided to place one on the bait tray - result: no dead mice and NO BAIT LEFT! They managed to get in and out with the bait and still alive…. Waste of money.

Vor dieser Falle habe ich verschiedene Schlagfallen verwendet und war damit nicht zufrieden. Sie haben die Mäuse nicht zuverlässig getötet. Deswegen wollte ich etwas anderes probieren. Die Falle kam aus den USA, wurde aber schnell versendet, eine Woche vor dem angekündigten Lieferdatum. Die Verarbeitung ist wertig, die Bedienung denkbar einfach. Als Köder wird Erdnussbutter empfohlen, ich verwende Nuss-Nougat-Creme. Den ersten Fang hatte ich gleich in der ersten Nacht, den zweiten einige Tage später. Beide Mäuse haben nicht sichtbar gelitten. Die Falle blinkt nach Auslösen grün, sodass man gar nicht ganz hingehen muss. "No Touch, No See"-Entsorgung ist möglich. Ein Mäuseschwanz kann aber hinten herausschauen. Für mich ein gutes Produkt.

Reçu vendredi. Placé vendredi soir avec de la pâte de noix de cajou comme appât (manipulé avec des gants!!) et vérifié chaque 24h. 2 jours, 2 souris adultes. Les pièges collants (ont fonctionné 1 seule fois- 4 individus collés mais plus rien ensuite et de la colle qui finit par dégouliner sur le plancher beurk) et pièges DIY ne m'avaient permis de capturer que des bébés. Vu la configuration du piège, il faut absolument ouvrir le piège pour récupérer la souris. Ne faites pas comme nous qui avons essayé de la tirer par le trou d'entrée :-/
