Ratings & Reviews for TOMCAT Catch and Release Mouse Traps

Humane but a bit tricky to set

If you use these, you need to be able to check them daily or more frequently. If you catch a live mouse, take it at least one mile from your house or it will find it's way back.

Inconsistent product

Is very inconsistent. I have caught a few mice with this but there are a lot of false triggers.

mouse catcher

worked great. caught a little mice quickly

Very easy to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's an easy mouse trap to set up and easy to release them, I didn't have any mice so I brought it to my friends barn to test it out and it works like a charm!

Good trap

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My friend was able to use this in her house as they have mice problems. She said it was easy to use and worked great! The design was nicely set up. Hopefully I don’t need one but if I do I would purchase the same brand

very unreliable especially on carpet

bought these bc my usual brand of humane traps was on backorder due to the holidays. 3 times, the mice got in and the trap did not spring. moved the traps off of the carpet and two worked, but much slower than the other humane style with the flip door instead of the swing door. set them up again bc they were advertised as "reusable". haven't worked since.

Like it

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Does it job and keep the rodent alive. So if u like to catch it and making sure it stays alive this is doing what it say it supposed to do. Recommend. Just make sure you go by the size it says it of rodent is to big it won't work I obviously. So make sure wu get the right size. Or weight class.

Nice trap but would be better with a window

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I can’t stand the thought of killing mice. I always catch and release so I was excited to receive this live trap. Unfortunately the ones I’m accustomed to are clear so I can see what’s in them. I don’t like that this one is black and not see through. It’s easy enough to set up but having to gauge whether there is actually a friend in there based on the fact that it closed when I live in a house with 3 curious dogs who occasionally find my traps...

This is the worst live trap ever.

They didn’t need to reinvent the wheel here. There’s no huge feet of engineering required. Catch mouse… make container stay shut to relocate. So basic, right? Apparently not for tomcat. The first time I caught the mouse, I picked up the container… carefully…. It opened by itself, the mouse ran out. The next time, it didn’t capture the mouse at all.., he went in, had a delicious organic peanut butter dinner on my dime and then walked out, at which point the trap snapped shut. I did believe I’d ca...

Didn’t work like I expected.

The trap didn’t function like I expected. The opening and closing part to let the mouse in kept closing after it was placed on the floor. A very touchy opening and closing device.

It's reusable

I can catch a live mouse and let my cat chase it around.

no kill traps!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] worked well and ensured that no mice got out! i’m happy that they are no kill traps and you can then release the mouse outside. they kept the mouse secure and didn’t harm them.

Great product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Loved it. Worked perfectly. Easy set up and use. Easy to release. We have mice in our shed and it works perfectly for the size of them. Definitely will continue to use it!

Don't waste your money

8 tries. 3 different baits. Food gone, trap sprung, no mouse.

No more mouse

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ok so unfortunately I did have to use this and no i didn't take any pictures. I know it was a catch and release but yeah no. I only caught 1 in it and I used peanut butter because they live that stuff. He was a big boy. It was easy to use and easy to hide. The release scared me a little but hes living his best mouse life hopefully.

escape artists?

One time success catching the mouse; other times, the door shows closed, but no mouse and no bate left over..how is that possible?

Effective

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The assembly was easy. It took less than 3 minutes. It is a durable product and easy to use. Assemble and place on baseboard. It works as expected. I love that it's not lethal. Just catch and release

Not sure if they work

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far…. Honestly not sure it works. We’ve had these out since we got them and have yet to catch anything. With it being cold outside I know field mice get inside as my cats alert us….

Easy to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is easy to use and really durable. I wasn’t scared of any pets or kids getting into it. Small and easy to use. I wish it had came with the gel you have to add to the trap but alternatively you can add peanut butter over all and easy to use product
