What Customers Are Saying

The Tomcat Kill & Contain Mouse Trap has had a mixed performance. The older version was praised as effective, easy to use, and providing a clean way to deal with mice. However, the newer redesigned version seems to have significant issues - many customers report that the mice are able to enter the trap, eat the bait, and exit without getting caught. The trigger mechanism also appears to be problematic, with many users unable to get the trap to set properly or trigger when a mouse enters. Several customers expressed disappointment with the new design, stating that the old version worked much better.

Does not work. Don’t get rid of the black version

Would Not Recommend

This item UPCs 695924835755 888603036066. Does not work. The old black color style that is flatter and has the that piece that pulls in opening after caught works super well. The white tall one does not. I have contacted the home CENTERs with negative reviews as well

Not working like they used to!

Would Not Recommend

These used to work for us. But now we're having a different problem than others have. They have been catching mideast but never showing as "caught". We have to pick up the trap and see if it is heavier - sometimes there's a tail sticking out that I REALLY DON'T WANT TO SEE! If we don't check every day it starts to smell!

Where did the mice go?

Would Recommend

Easy to set up, safe, still have not caught a mouse though. I bought 4 of these after catching 4 mice (or the same mouse 4 times?). They were pricier than the ones I caught the mouse with. But I still haven’t caught anything. Not 100% sure if there are any mice or if it’s the traps. But it is easy to set up and I’m happy they are safe to have around my toddler.

Yes, works well, yes would recommend

works very well, meant to be disposable, but I'm recycling it. the mice don't seem to mind. fresh peanut butter is all takes, kills instantaneously ( I assume, sometimes forget to check it for a day, or two), again the dead mice don’t seem to mind. Would recommend to a prospective buyer. Did just that at the store. The buyers seemed to appreciate the suggestion. Please don’t use the glue traps. That is torture. I don’t mind killing the rodents, but torture is a whole different kettle of fish, (p...

Very easy to use. No see after caught.

Would Recommend

I am an animal lover and it makes me sad to use these. But I like that you can’t see them after they pass. And it’s very easy set up.

Bad product, doesn't work

Would Not Recommend

I bought this two weeks ago in a two pack. The first trap worked perfectly, overnight had a mouse. Went to set the second trap and waited 3 days knowing I had another mouse. It did not work! Mouse still in the garage. I'm optimistic, ok second trap was an anomaly, didn't work. I went and bought another two pack, both traps didn't work. After three days switched out the first one and try to test it, wouldn't snap. Put the second one out for three days and nothing so I tested it and it wouldn't...

Would Not Recommend

These were not catching anything so I setup a WYZE cam and watched to see what was happening. The mouse would sniff around the one with peanut butter, I would watch the mouse crawl in. I would watch the mouse crawl back out.
