Ratings may include incentivized customer reviews.
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.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Tomcat live catch mouse traps are generally easy to use, humane, and effective. I did have some inconsistent results with the trap. With false triggers and mice getting loose. Overall a good trap that is humane, allowing catch and release.

Mouse trap
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The tomcat live catch mouse trap is really easy to use. I like the idea behind these traps as they seem more humane. I haven't caught anything with it thankfully, but I'm going to try it in my barn.

Super user friendly.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Tomcat Live Catch Mouse Trap is incredibly user-friendly and easy to set up. I really appreciate how straightforward the design is — everything is self-explanatory, and it works exactly the way it should. Cleaning the trap was a breeze, and releasing the rodent wasn’t difficult at all. The instructions recommend releasing it at least 3–5 miles away to prevent them from coming back. I highly recommend using the attractant gel with this trap...

Easy to use, more humane option!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We set this in the garage, and as soon as the weather turned, we caught one! Love that this is reusable, but there is no way I’m emptying it, my husband is in charge of that operation. He brought the trap to an open field (hopefully far enough away that the critter doesn’t find his way back!!) and let him go. The legs support the trap well and it’s easy to trigger, but we never had it trigger without a mouse inside. Will keep this up all winter...

Easy to use
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have these set up in our yard in strategic areas where the rats used to traverse, and I have to say that I haven’t seen them for some time now since the traps are up. I found a couple of deceased ones nearby but the others have since disappeared.

Broken out of the box but a cool mechanism trap
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product came out of the box broken. The tiny plastic knobs are not strong enough apparently. I was not able to figure out how it works until looking at the box and thinking about how the set up looks. The trigger process is like a teeter totter effect which will allow the trap door to swing shut when the weight of the mouse is in the back of the trap. Thats a neat process. There are small airholes to allow the mouse to still breathe. The t...

I really appreciate that the Tomcat Live Catch Mou
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really appreciate that the Tomcat Live Catch Mouse Trap lets me deal with mice in a humane way. It’s simple, clean, and effective. I caught a tiny mouse overnight, and it was easy to release it safely outdoors.
From ScottsMiracle-Gro
Great concept
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the fact that this trap is more humane so I can catch the mouse alive then release it some place else I totally get that and love it but I have had it out for about a week and the food gets eaten but it does not catch the mouse which is unhelpful but I will say I do like the concept just wish that it would catch the mouse in my home.

Great idea, but hasn’t worked yet
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our house is over 100 years old, so there are lots of little cracks and spaces where mice can come in, and they do, especially when it’s cold outside. It breaks my heart to hurt them, so I was hopeful that this trap would help keep our home pest-free without harming the mice. It is easy to set, but the mice just don’t seem to be attracted to it. I fill the bait station with peanut butter and one time it was emptied, but the mouse did not trigge...

Easy, clean and effective
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Tomcat Press ’N Set Mouse Trap works great — super easy to set up, no mess, and you don’t have to touch the mouse when disposing of it. The design feels safer and more hygienic than traditional traps, and it catches mice quickly when placed along walls or corners. I also like that it’s pesticide-free and reusable, making it a simple and clean option for indoor use. Highly recommend if you want a fast, no-touch solution for occasional mouse...

Gross but prob works
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Cool and easy to use trap. Took me two seconds but I figured how it works. I just get creeped out by the fact that it’s alive in there ew. Haha. I’d prob just throw the whole thing away if I catch anything. Thankfully you don’t have to see anything like the open traps. That’s why I’d give it five stars I just wish maybe if it had some stick stuff inside too.

Live traps are the way to go!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This mouse trap will come in handy during the cold months when the mice come indoors! Definitely love that it’s a live trap as I hate killing the poor things, they’re so cute and sweet! Definitely happy to have this in our home!

Works Fast and Gets the Job Done!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Tomcat Rat Trap is incredibly effective & simple to set up, safe to use, and it works quickly. I caught a large rat within the first night! The design is sturdy, easy to clean, and reusable, which makes it well worth the price. I also appreciate that it’s much safer to handle than traditional snap traps. Highly recommend this trap if you want fast, clean results without the mess or hassle.

From ScottsMiracle-Gro
It does its job well
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a very effective mouse trap if you’re looking to do catch and release! I live that you put the bait on a piece that comes off, and there is a tube that faces away from your the the release part, instead of a door that opens towards your face. Great price as well.
From ScottsMiracle-Gro
Awesome!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] One of my new go to mouse traps! My favorite part about it is that it's reusable. Usually when you're trying to catch a mouse, you end up finding you're hunting more than one! You'll have money buying these instead of buying disposables, or these as an addition to your disposables!
