Please be aware these traps did NOT kill instantly
Would Not RecommendWe purchased these traps because we wanted a quick, humane way to deal with rats getting into our laundry room. We understand that rodents can cause damage and create health concerns, but we also believe that no animal deserves to suffer unnecessarily. The first rat was caught during the night, but the trap did not kill it. We discovered it still alive the following morning, and my partner had to put it out of its misery. We hoped that was an isolated incident, but the same thing happened with...
Successful Quickly
Would RecommendPlaced two traps in backyard early afternoon baited with peanut butter dipped in birdseed, next morning two large catches that match the two I’ve seen over the past week or two.
