What Customers Are Saying
Customers are sharply divided on these traps' effectiveness. Many praise the ease of setting, mess-free disposal, and reusable plastic design, reporting consistent success catching mice overnight with peanut butter or cheese. However, nearly as many report critical failures: traps that won't trigger, weak springs, premature snapping, or bait theft without capture. Some describe repeated success over weeks, while others find the mechanism poorly engineered or loses tension after few uses. Overall, reviewers remain split between strong satisfaction and frustration with reliability.

Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Tomcat mouse trap is small and compact. It's easy to use and hide in most any places. I have not trapped anything such as mice or other small creates. But as time goes I'm sure something will take the bate.

It works!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had a mouse underneath my outdoor grill island and using the Snap Trap worked. I placed a bit of peanut butter bait in the bait cup, and in a couple days mouse was trapped. No mess, and can be re-used.

Great Trap
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is one of the best mouse traps I have ever used. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quality mouse trap. The quality and features of it are second to none. Do not look any further.

Easy to set
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The traps are super simple to set. Easy to put a bait into. I havent caught anything yet but they are set and ready to go. The bait is still in tact so i know there has not been any "pests" yet to disturb. But also its still cold here so they are not moving much. But im ready when they do!

Reusable and safe around pets
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the modern take on the old fashioned mouse trap. Tomcat Mouse Snap Traps are just as effective as the old wire traps but BETTER! The trap is completely contained within the plastic so the mouse gets caught but not my curious cat. I am able to reuse the trap without having to worry about snapping my own fingers when disposing of the previously caught mouse and it is easy to clean the trap to prep it for the next use. I also like the dea...

Go away mice!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a few mice issues, mostly when the weather starts getting cold. I got these Tomcat snap traps in the 2 pack size to try to help catch the nasty rodents. Tomcat also sells an attractant gel that you can use for bait. These traps are easy to set up and I usually use peanut butter as bait. So far, I haven’t gotten any of the nasty mice and these two traps are still set up after several days. The mice managed to steal the bait and get away w...

Excellent Traps
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had mice in my garage and used the Tomcat traps to eliminate them. The traps were easy and SAFE to set. I baited one and left one without bait. Both worked perfectly the first time (NO false snaps). I was very easy to get the mice out of the trap without making contact. These are by far the best traps I have ever used. I recommend them highly!

Always reliable
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These traps are very effective and easy to use. Have had problems with mice getting into the trunk of my vehicle and damaging the wire harness. We used these to catch the mice and have eliminated the issue.
From ScottsMiracle-Gro
Works ok
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had mice issues in the past as my home is adjacent to a wooded area. I placed the traps inside the storage shed. The traps worked better once I purchased and applied the attractant gel to the trap.

Works great!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great mouse trap! Easy to bait and set. Caught the little booger who had been munching on our groceries. Much easier to use that traditional mouse traps which are hard to set and not always reliable. Also reusable!

Great traps
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great at catching those little rascals fast. We used to use sticky traps but I wasn’t a fan of the slow way they go. This was quick and i want to think painless. I’m an animal lover but mice can be a huge menace. These are great traps.
From ScottsMiracle-Gro
Great trap
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great mouse trap! I’m usually very scared to try and set a mouse trap but setting this trap was a breeze and I had no fear of loosing a finger. I love that this trap is pet and child safe. I have been very successful catching a few pesky mice in our garage.
