What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise these traps for their exceptional effectiveness, with many reporting multiple catches and reliable performance using peanut butter bait. However, significant frustration centers on recent design changes replacing metal with plastic bait pedals, which reviewers say are harder to set and prone to accidental discharge. Some customers received mismatched versions or experienced inconsistent labeling. Despite these drawbacks, most consider them dependable and effective for rodent control.

Would Not RecommendThese traps are infinitely worse than those with the metal petal. These are almost impossible to set without getting your finger caught in them.
These r awesome

Effective rat elimination
Would RecommendI have 20 traps on the fence line. AKA rat trap highway. We have bait boxes with poison and birth control for rats . I haven't put bait on the traps and were trapping them. 2 of the traps staple came off.
I tried twice to buy your metal trigger rat traps and both time you sent me the wrong thing. You sent me yellow plastic trigger rat traps which fail to work as I need. Terrible order filling you guys. One must wonder if your workers can read or decipher numbers???

Lowes changed my order without notice
Would Not RecommendI ordered the METAL petal rat traps specifically not the PLASTIC petal traps that do not work as well on line and my order was confirmed yet when I received them the order was changed to the PLASTIC petal traps without any notification. I went back to the website today and the product is no longer available.

Did not work
I had 4 of these and didn't catch one rat. Difficult to set and all 4 had cheese and peanut butter eaten without catching them , even though traps did snap.

Not Model 210 with Metal Pedal
Would Not RecommendThis is a jab at Lowe's (not the rat trap) for swapping out the described metal pedal model M210 and just substituting the wide, plastic pedal M205 as if it is the same thing. They are not! The online description remains M210, and "metal pedal", and the Lowe's stock# hasn't changed. I did not want the new, wide, plastic pedal, because the metal one works great as-is. The wide pedal seems an ill-informed change to the narrow metal one. I already experience an occasional failed capture with my met...

Junk
The metal traps are fine but that's not what Lowes sends you. They send you the plastic ones that don't work and then won't let you return them by mail. DO NOT order these online from Lowes.
