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.

Tomcat Mouse Snap Trap
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I never had a problem that I knew of till I saw some mice droppings just inside my closed garage door. I put a Tomcat snap trap at the very edge of the closed door and SNAP I got a mouse by the bevy day. This went on for a few days and it actually nailed 6 mice in the first 15 days.

Mouse trap
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This trap is very easy to set up. After put on the place I want to set then just press the clip. It is easy to clean. This won't eat the space. It will fit on the corner perfectly. I would like to recommend this.

Great safer mouse trap
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Tomcat Mouse snap traps works great. This snaps and catch mouse. When I try to set up, I sometimes snap this but this won't hurt my fingers. This is safe for human but will help to catch mouse. Very easy to clean after catching them, too.

A better mousetrap
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Nice. So easy to set. Just squeeze and it locks open. I use peanut butter they love it. And it’s nice to give them a treat for their last meal. I place them close to wall where they travel from one location to another,

I didn’t like these
Would Not Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don’t like these small Snap Traps. Reading the instructions, it states that I may want to use an attractant, sold separately, but not mandatory. I wouldn’t want to make a separate purchase, but would prefer it be included in the package, even if that raises the price. And if the attractant isn’t in stock? Or I get home to see I need attractant, is that a trip back to the store? I also don’t like the very small size. It was very sensitiv...

Quick and easy
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received tomcats mouse snap traps. Thea are really great mouse traps. Really quick and easy set up. Easy to use and great directions on the package and easy to follow along. I love these because when I catch the mouse I do not have to touch the mouse to get it out. Easy to spray the trap down and reset. Very durable and thick plastic. Has a nice snap when discharged small enough to fit into small spaces. This is my new favorite mouse trap tha...

Easy to set up
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had the pleasure in trying the Tomcat Mouse Snap Traps. The direction were easy tonread and understand. The trap was easy to set up. It also appears to be environment friendly. The trap has been set up for 2 weeks in our garage but we have not caught a mouse yet. I hope to catch one soon.

Worked the First Night
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had a small mouse in my garage that was leaving poo pellets on the floor. I did not want to use poison. I have used other traps in the past with no luck. This trap arrived and I thought I would give it a shot. Since the mice seem to want the dog food, I set a piece of dog food on the trap. It worked like a charm. The little creature was caught the very first night.

Great product design
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Tomcat traps is a great product with a great new look I like the way you set them for the rodent to enter while following their path along the wall. You can choose whether to bait the trap or not. This product is great.

Easy Mouse Traps
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very easy to use compared to regular snap traps. I was surprised how easy they were to use, and prove to be effective. I placed them in my shed and within a few days I had already caught a little rascal that’s been eating my grass seed.

Looks
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the look of the trap. It was easy to setup. Love the product. It's small enough to put in little places to keep away from my cat. It was easy to get out of the package. I love the look of the package.

Works perfectly
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I usually get a mouse or two during the winter months. I normally buy the cheap wooden ones but they usually have to be tweaked before they work right. I wanted something that actually worked good out of the package. These traps were very sensitive and easily set off. The first night using it I had caught two mice and then one more the next night. It is super easy to reset and get rid of the dead mice. I highly recommend these over any traps th...

Catch em and kill em
Would RecommendI like these traps. They are easy to set and easy to bait. I usually get one or two mice a year and these traps catch them fast.
Sucks
Would Not RecommendI have bought a few of each mouse and rat traps. I bought them because they say reusable. Each trap caught 1-3 rodents before either breaking the piece that locks trap for use or is very sensitive and will go off while trying to put trap down.

Would RecommendWork so much better than the cheap Victor wooden trays.

Does not work!
Would Not RecommendI have been using the Press N Set for years and they have never failed to work. The store I buy those from, was out and I had to buy this Snap Trap. I did the same thing I've always done before with the Press N Set and put the peanut butter in, pressed it down (this should have been a clue because it went down waaaay too easy). Put it in the same location as I have been for years. Get up in the morning and the trap is gone. I find it further down the wall with the mouse still alive, it was ...
