What Customers Are Saying

Customers praise the humane, reusable design and appreciate its safety around children and pets. Many report immediate success catching mice using peanut butter bait, with some capturing multiple rodents within hours. However, a substantial number experience escape issues—mice push the door open after eating, chew through plastic, or the trap fails to fully close. Despite these reliability concerns, most customers value the ethical approach and reusable nature, though some find the latching mechanism too easily overridden.

The Best Trap!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was super excited to try out this mouse trap. Since it's getting colder outside at night time they like to try to come inside our home. So I placed this by a wall where they like to come into. I glued a piece of dog food to the trap and I have already caught one mouse. I love how it's easy to catch the mouse and also let it go. And I enjoyed that I'm not killing it I feel more humane about catching one and releasing it. They are very affordab...

A humane, easy-to-use trap that safely catches mic

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Tomcat Live Catch Mouse Trap worked surprisingly well and was super easy to use. I liked that it’s a humane option that lets you safely release the mouse without harming it. It’s lightweight but sturdy, and the design makes it simple to set up and clean afterward. I appreciated that it was reusable and didn’t require any messy bait or complicated setup. It took a little patience, but once I positioned it correctly, it did the job effectivel...

Great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This will came in handy this winter when mice dice to make an appearance. Looks safe and looks like it will be very effective when trapping mice. Not sure if it will work with bigger mice, the size is small.

Trap with kindness

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great design, made so that the mouse triggers the door to close on itself. Easy to use and a great value as it's reusable. Would even be a great way to trap a missing small pet. Unsure how long it will hold up but willing to give it a go.

No mice yet

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I put it out but haven't had any mice yet. I like that it doesn't hurt the mice considering im an animal lover. If I catch any mice I will come back and leave picture. Fits perfectly under cabinet

Great no harm option

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really enjoy this catch and release option mouse trap since it does cause the mouse any harm in the process. It blends in under our kitchen sink cabinet and has caught the mouse lurking around in our cabinets in just a day!

Good for teeny mice

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great for teeny tiny little field mice. Anything else, I’m not sure how effective these would be or work. While I would normally like to just kill and try to eliminate the issue of these field mice, I have been just trapping and releasing far away from where they are entering my travel trailer.

Easy to use & Good Value

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy effective way to catch peaky mice that have gotten inside. Catches then live so you can release them back outside & is safe to use. Very lightweight and durable, easy to use in different areas. Good value since it's reusable.

Great Trap

Would Recommend

Saw a shrew on Friday morning as I was about to leave. Set the trap with peanut butter Friday night. Saturday afternoon while, I was working from home, I heard noise coming from the trap. It caught the shrew but as I picked up the trap, I didn't secure the trap door and it escaped. Reset it, and 10 minutes later the shrew was back for more PB. The trap tipped over though and he escaped again. Set it up for a third time and caught him again 2 minutes later. Must love peanut butter. I released him...

Caught mice immediately!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This trap caught a mouse within hours of putting it out. After we caught the first mouse, we tried setting it up without putting any peanut butter as bait and it proceeded to catch 2 more mice. We previously bought 2 other mice traps with no luck so we are so happy with this!
