The Tomcat Mouse Traps have received mixed reviews.

Would Not RecommendI bought this product because I was frankly afraid of setting normal, old school traps. It's a pretty simple press down, lever product, so I was happy about the ease of use. Only issue is - it didn't work. I think maybe my mouse was too fat? We had a single mouse in the house, and it was living a pretty rich life. Put out the traps, didn't catch a thing for at least a week. I put my big girl pants on and bought the old school, classic mouse traps. Yeah, I was a bit jumpy to set them, but I...

Do not waste money on any Tom Cat mouse traps.
Would Not RecommendI purchased the old design kill and contain mouse trap. Two traps in the box. One trap was broken in the box. (Unable to set trap, lever would not set and stay down. I set the other one and caught one mouse). When I went back to purchase another trap, the design had changed. Still I purchased one and they proved to be completely useless. No mice caught. I also bought Tom Cat spin mice traps and and pull and set mouse traps that did not work. Do not waste your hard earned money on Tom Cat mouse t...
I haven't had one mouse crawl into this piece of junk. I'm not even sure if the whole is big enough. Waste of money!

Great for Moms and Grandmas!
Easy to set, and an easy indicator on the side to tell you when the mouse has been trapped.

Of the Options, this one is the best
Would RecommendAs for the Tomcat Mouse Traps, this style has been the most effective. I have only had one bad experience (mouse ate through the plastic to freedom!). You load the back with peanut butter and wait. No mess either. Their other, cheaper styles, such as the black spin box thing and their plastic remake of the traditional mousetrap fails miserably, to not be worth the cost or the time. I would say these traps are also more effective than the el cheapos you can pick up at Walmart, in the style o...

Doesn't work.
Would Not RecommendWe baited with peanut butter and we tried the tomcat bait gel. The bait is being eaten but the trap has not snapped. We re-baited and had one trap flip to "not set," bait gone, no mouse. Very frustrating. Will be sending receipt for refund.

Worse trap ever
Saw mouse twice and never went near the trap. Says it’s guaranteed but not worth the hassle to send in receipt
