Rat Trap Outdoors, Set of 4, Reusable Indoor Pest Control Solutions for Trapping Large Rats, Chipmunks Squirrels. Instant Humane Kill Rodent Snap Traps That Work, A Better Effective Alternative

I purchased these to help with the chipmunk population around the house. They are larger than I expected, but they are certainly well made and sturdy. However, the I had limited success with catching the chipmunks. I got a couple of chipmunks and a couple of mice. However, most of the time, the food in the trap was gone. They probably work better for the larger/heavier animals like rats. In the end, I gave up and went to smaller sized traps.Update: I added a Star to the review, as the company contacted me about the issue I had with their product. They were very concerned with my satisfaction (a rareity these days). So 1 more star for them! If they made a smaller item built more for smaller mice, I would certainly purchase it without a second thought.

Our squirrels have developed a taste for our hummingbird sugar water. They can empty a large feeder in no time. Trying these to see if they would either scare or catch them when they go to feed. No luck, so I'll relegate these to rat traps. The design is great, easy to fill with bait and set, has a spot for a screw so you can hold them in place.

Easy to bait and set the trap. The trap trigger could be a little bit more sensitive.

I love the way you bait these traps and then set them. They set very quickly and easy. They have a great place for the bait and it looks like it will be easy to remove rats from them. The old wood ones worked ok but it was a pain in the ass to get the dead rat off them. So as soon I get one or two this evening I will be back to let you know how they really work. Thank you Kat sense.

These are easy to set. The only success we had were with the traps that were anchored down with double sided tape or with a screw through the provided screwhole. Others that were sprung but not anchored were empty.

Look... I'm an animal lover and I have a hard time killing much of anything other than ants, mosquitoes, and flies. I can't even kill a spider; I fear them but they are VERY beneficial so I relocate them. But push me long enough and suddenly finding a fuzzy little carcass becomes my morning joy before making a cup of coffee.Rats and mice are a part of canyon life...I know that. Technically my house is located in THEIR HOME. And we could coexist along with the hundreds of black windows in my yard I acknowledge. Just leave me alone and I'll leave you alone. Well, the rodents aren't playing by the rules for my yard and garden so it was time to bring out the big guns. At first, I returned to my victor electronic traps and zapped 2 giant mutant well-fed rats and 1 super-sized obese mouse. And then nothing... That seems to be the trend with those traps; they wise up.I've gotten the old-school wooden traps before and was too terrified of them to continue to use and promptly threw in the trash. They are just so scary to set up and I like keeping my limbs intact. When I did a search on amazon for rat traps I found those black plastic claw types that were far less intimidating - esp since you were supposed to face it into a wall for side traffic. But falling down the rabbit hole of customer reviews they didn't seem effective. Even horror stories of snapping onto rats but not killing them and having to manually finish the job. No thanks!!!Someone recommended Kat Sense as being more effective and that led me to find this product which seemed more effective than the plastic claw option. Reviews and photos were solid, so I gave it a go. I was very eager to start using so I bought enough items to qualify for next day shipping and promptly received it early the next day. I put some rubber gloves on (to block my scent) and took a toothpick and wiped a small amount of peanut butter low and to the side of the bait hole then pulled the lever back and clicked it into place. SO EASY and not intimidating at all!! Then I placed around my yard in spots the rodents were likely to travel and far away from my hippie bare feet to accidentally forget about.I was tempted to buy the 6 pack but settled on the 4 since I didn't know if it was going to work. I found that was the sensible approach since the odds of killing 6 all in a single night [would be amazing, but] was highly unlikely. And that has proven to be the wise choice since I have only caught a single rodent each time. I caught a big guy the very first night, placed next to some potted milkweed they have been eating up to bare stems. Then the next night I got one over by my fence line next to my fountain >:) The 3rd night, not a single trap was set off and I was sad but you can't win 'em all. Then the 4th night, I surprisingly caught a very small one (baby rat, I think?) after I witnessed a rodent literally falling from the sky when I opened my back door. That's how bad things have gotten for me - it's raining rodents!!! They run on the roof and onto my tree... they have gotten into the crawl space of my kitchen through the vents...they are absolutely everywhere and destroying everything they can. But so far, there are now 6 that can do no more harm, bwahahaha!So my experience in a short amount of time has been very positive. They are easy to use, not scary, effective, and sturdy. I read some reviews saying they fall apart or are too sensitive and get set off. Must be faulty items because mine havent snapped shut without including a lovely dead rat along with it and I have been able to open them up, toss the rat, then set them back up again and continue to kill more >:)Highly recommend!! Like most rat trap reviews, the photos speak for themselves.

Yes you can reuse these, but honestly for the money I just toss the whole unpleasant thing.I do have to say there was a clean snap of the neck which made me feel much better about using these. Very easy to set and simple.Will buy again, although we just threw away our bird feeder so we didn't have to worry about more rats in the end.

The product dimensions state 9”x 12”x 28” which is very large. So, I thought it would be big enough to trap grey squirrels since it is advertised to trap squirrels. The actual dimensions are approximately 5-1/2” L x 3” W x 5-5/8”, NOT EVEN CLOSE. I will try them anyway. The price is reasonable.

I haven’t caught a rat yet, but did catch mice with these traps. I had a very large rat lurking out in our barn. We have livestock a few cows and we keep our feed in steel containers.But rats still are opportunistic. I had to resort to the old style wooden trap with a hair trigger setting and peanut butter, and caught the big rat. These newer style plastic traps are much more friendlier to use. I find them easier to set and clean.

Problem neighbour created a problem for the neighbourhood. The efficient traps took care of that effectively and quickly. 5 stars

Merci beaucoup ils sont superbe

Kills rats within less than 30 minutes of sighting. Used peanut butter. 4 big ones 5 small ones.

Human scent on a rat trap will stop the rats from using it. Wood traps are almost impossible to get scent free. These traps are excellent for steralizing, Wear rubber gloves when handling them.
