No sensitive enough. Bait is picked clean without tripping the trap

Not just the cheapest, the best.
Would RecommendThis trap worked where others failed. It is a lot easier to set these up to be very sensitive. I had mice eating bait from other traps without even setting them off. Not with this kind.

A Better Mousetrap?
Would Not RecommendSo... can you build a better mousetrap? Or can you improve the original one? I would say NO! Now they've gone and made an "improvement" to the original and have made it very difficult/impossible to set, with or without bait. Please go back to original design.

Would RecommendDoes the job - just be careful setting it with fingers
Effective & Cheap Snap Traps
Would RecommendThese mouse traps work very well. I caught the first mouse within 12 hours of setting the traps. Just bait them with a small amount of peanut butter close to the hinge and set them along whatever wall your mice like to run along. One thing I learned the hard way is to set the trap when it's sitting on the ground where you want it to be, otherwise it can set itself off and snap on your fingers or break itself from snapping without catching anything.
wear gloves when setting up
Would RecommendEasy to set up, and the new yellow panel allows you to put peanut butter easily.
Not fancy but works well
Would RecommendOld school but efficient. Traps are a bit finicky to set. Handle with care.
Not This One

3 out of 4 ain’t bad for the price.
Would RecommendBought a total of 4 traps. 3 of the 4 work great. The other trap is almost impossible to set. If you do get it set without going off once you try to set it in place BAM it goes off.
Only ones that work!
Would RecommendThese are always my go to! Much more effective than any other trap.
