What Customers Are Saying
The product is a simple and effective mouse trap that has received mixed reviews. Many customers report it successfully catching multiple mice, but some experienced issues with the spring not being strong enough to kill the mice or the trap being difficult to set. The trap's effectiveness may vary depending on the user's experience and the bait used, with strong-smelling options like peanut butter recommended to attract mice.

Would Not Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I prefer the wooden traps with the metal bait tab. You can bend the catch tab where the trigger bar goes and get it to work on a hair trigger. These traps with the plastic bait bar are tricky to set properly because the plastic is so slick.

Mouse trap review
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to use and set up. Arrived on time. A lot better than standard dollar store traps, no glue to worry about either. I set these in my basement where I have seen droppings in the past. I will update if needed.

Easy and effective
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very easy to use and very effective. Instructions are very clear and easy to follow. As always be careful setting this type of trap so you don’t get your finger caught in it. Hard for mice to defeat this product.

Works like it should
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like these traps because they are easy to use and they work effectively. I have put peanut butter on them and cheese. I have caught mice every time. They always go off as they are supposed to and have never failed to work.

Easy to set traps
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We live in the middle of 50 acres so we are always having a rodent problem. and to try to keep them out of our garage and barns has been a struggle. We started using all kinds of tomcat products and so far they have had great success at keeping the mice down to next to zero. They are easy to set without any problems, instructions are great and they do a fantastic job at keeping the pests at bay.

Well made and very effective!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very well made and very efficient, in two days time I got about 4 pests and I am shocked how well these hold up to the task of getting rid of them, easy setup and work well, definitely recommended for others to use for their little problems.

Old fashioned but newer version trap
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This trap is like tge old fashioned ones only thing is its much fancier and seems much easier to set. I love the plastic cheese decoration thats cute. But it works now i need something for the bigger ones.

Great
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These traps do what they were built to do...they catch mice and kill them quickly. We live in the country and have a lot of mice trying to get in the house, we don't like to kill anything ...but mice in the house are a big no-no. These work great!

Great trap!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great product and easy to use. Highly recommend if you house a mouse problem. Small enough to fit in their hiding spaces. Would definitely purchase again and recommend to friends and neighbors! Great job!

Conventional Wood Trap
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is very much like the 50 year old wood trap is functionality and design .But the components are first class and good quality .These should last a long time compared to the standard cheap wood traps .

Great Traps
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Seem to be well made. Easy to set would recommend. Have not caught anything yet but using as preventative. Using peanut butter go lure the mice in my garage. Put along walls where mice run at every wall.

Have A Mouse Problem?
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was really hestant to use these mouse traps because they are so violent. I HAD a mouse that my cats couldnt catch living in my cabinets and behind my stove, and i cant have mice all over my food. YUCK! I set this trap behind my stove last night before i went to bed, and i'll be darned if i dont have a mouse problem this morning. Said mouse was caught in the trap over night. This product definitely works 💪

Popular type of mouse traps
Would RecommendThis mouse trap works well for the cost. 1 nut or seed can be put on the trap for mice. Maple seed can also be used for squirrels in the attic.
From ScottsMiracle-Gro
Impossible to use
The bars on the traps I bought all had to be adjusted with hammer and pliers. They were either too short or too long to reach the plate holding the peanut butter. Most people would not persevere in making this adjustment. They were faulty and impossible to use as is.
