This is a seasonal ritual at our house. I hear the mice move in with the cool weather and I get out the mousetraps. A tiny bit of peanut butter in the bait cup and they are caught. If I don't get all of them with the trap the rest seem to move on to safer pastures somewhere else after enough of their buddies have been killed.”

I would like to thank your company for making the "perfect" mouse trap. I have tried at least 20 other trap brands and they have all had various degrees of success, but none work as well as yours. My daughter bought me six (6) of your mouse traps for my birthday and after setting all of these traps around two of our properties, I was amazed at the response. Best traps I have found on the market.”

Within thirty minutes or less of placing the Snap-E® Mousetrap, I had a dead mouse. I used some candy a mouse had eaten into as bait. I am ordering six more. These traps work! I have had about twenty of the old wooden ones sitting out around the house for three week and caught NOTHING!”

I'm catching mice every night in my greenhouse with these Snap-E® Mousetraps. They are so easy to set that I don't even flinch any more as I reset them - they never snap while they are being set. I've tried lots of different brands of mousetraps and these are far superior to the rest.”
- Mark Parsons

I love being able to catch multiple mice with one setup. This way I can let it sit for a couple days and catch multiples. The Ketch-All® Multiple Catch Mousetrap is the best mousetrap I've found. I'll be buying several more.”

You guys are great! Just a note to say 'Thank You' for the 2 Metal Lid Replacements for our Mousetraps. A great benefit was when I saw 'Proudly' made in America. That is what America is made of and we need to get back on track with showing the world! Great products, made by great people who back up what they produce! Look out mice... 2 traps back in service. Thank you!”

I have set thousands of these traps while running Thoroughspect and have never found a better trap ever. The traps are exactly what a mousetrap should be in that they are fast-reacting, easy to set and release. In addition, they have a visible yellow bar that can be seen in crawl spaces and attics to see if they have been triggered.

Rodent Prevention 101

Rat With Food You could say that mice and rats are the “perfect” houseguests; they’ll eat (and chew on) just about anything and build their nests wherever you let them. Unfortunately, every year in the US, rodents cause over one billion dollars in structural damage to houses, apartments, offices, and businesses. And because of the environments they travel in, they’re also perfect transmitters of disease. If you’re not excited about sharing your space with mice and rats, there are simple things you can do both inside and outside to rodent-proof your space.

Step 1: Clean

Mice and rats are creatures of opportunity. If there’s nothing to eat, they’re really not interested in sticking around. Eliminating their food source will force them to relocate. Make sure to:

promptly clean up food spills and wash dirty dishes
take out trash and remove clutter (both inside and outside) on a regular basis
store food (pet & human) in thick plastic or metal containers, when not in use

Step 2: Seal

Now that you’ve cut off their food supply, it’s time to close the doors and make sure they can’t get back in. Mice are able to squeeze through holes the size of a nickel, and rats can get through ones the size of a half dollar, so check closely for gaps or holes inside and outside your home/office building and seal them up. Don’t overlook:

inside, under, and behind appliances, i.e. fridge, stove, water heater
around fireplaces and doors
basement floor drains
where utilities enter the building, i.e. electrical, plumbing, gas, cable

Step 3: Trap

If they haven’t gotten the hint at this point, there are a number of trapping options to help you evict any stubborn tenants. There are both lethal and live-trap options, depending on your preference. Non-chemical traps, like the Kness Ketch-All® and Snap-E®, allow you to verify your success and use them again-and-again. When setting your traps, be sure to:

locate feeding, traveling, and nesting paths
place traps perpendicular to walls, along the rodent’s path
bait snap traps with peanut butter, bacon, nuts, or dried fruit

It’s worth noting that rodents are very cautious of new things placed in their environment. Putting out baited un-set traps for a couple of days will allow mice and rats time to inspect and get used to them. On the third day, re-bait and set the trap.
