What Customers Are Saying

Customers praise the humane, non-lethal design as the trap's greatest strength, with many reporting immediate success catching and releasing mice alive. The reusable construction appeals to cost-conscious users, and peanut butter bait proves highly effective. Reviewers consistently note the intuitive setup and clear release mechanism make it easy to use. However, a notable minority report mice escaping by chewing through the end cap or dislodging the mechanism, while some find it fails to trigger with lighter mice or when bait is consumed without activation. Despite these concerns, most customers consider it a reliable, humane solution.

Consistently fails at holding mice

I bough two. The trap attracts mice fine, but one ended up chewing through the bottom and the other clearly didn’t have a hard time pushing open the door. They sat overnight, both empty bait trays, both empty traps. Useless. Better chance at using a bucket and hope they just climb in and fall.

Does not work

The trap is easy to set up. However, the trap either does not hold the mouse or sets off to easily and does not catch the mouse. After using it for a week every night the trap goes off and has never contained the mouse.

Not for small mice

After seeing a mouse in the laundry room, I baited my Tomcat Live Catch Mouse Trap with peanut butter - and pieces of peanut stuck in the peanut butter. When I checked the trap the first time, two of of the peanut pieces were gone but the trap had not closed. A week later after I found a dead mouse elsewhere (courtesy of cat/dog), I checked the still-open Tomcat Live Catch Mouse Trap and saw that ALL of the peanut butter was gone. The design seems perfect for humane catch & release of mice - he...

Great Solution For No Kill

Would Recommend

What a clever design! Decided to try this trap after our cats brought a live mouse into the house. It was very easy to bait with peanut butter and set, and the mouse entered the trap within an hour. It was securely trapped, but easy to release without having to handle the mouse. I really hated the thought of having to kill a mouse and this is a great solution. It's also safe for pets if they play with it. I love that it's so easy, sturdy and reuseable. We live in a very mouse-prone area and our ...

Product does not work

This trap was easy to set up, but did not trap the mice. I set up the trap three times using peanut butter. The trap was triggered each time, all the peanut butter was eaten, but it didn't trap the mouse.

So thankful I didn't have to kill them!

Would Recommend

The last time we had mice we put out the snap traps, which work great, don't get me wrong, mice are gross and dangerous. But this time around we put the snap traps out and the bait was eaten, but the trap never snapped. After putting out the live catch traps we found out why, they were too small to set it off. We put out two traps and caught in one day 6 mice. The traps were great. They were so simple to set up, I squished some Reese cups pieces on the bait end and boy did those mice love tha...

Didn't work!

Would Not Recommend

I found out there was a mouse in my room the other day. Not wanting to kill the mouse, I purchased 4 of these traps to place around my room and in the garage (my room is in the basement, with a door to the garage). Over the course of the next couple of days, there were mouse droppings everywhere, the peanut butter from the traps gone, but no mice!!! :(
