Humane Mouse Trap Pack of 2 - Live Mouse Traps Catch and Release Trap for Indoor and Outdoor Use - Reusable Mouse Traps, Safe & Effective No Kill Mouse Traps - Mouse Traps Catch and Release (Green)

Allowing for accessable food and water while providing plenty of space and air is all good but to have the trap work on even smaller, juvenile mice without needing to weight the plate with coins or glass aquarium stones is a solid win. One improvement the trap designers could implement would be the addition of an adapter to the release plate which would allow for easy and secure transfer of the captured mouse to a cage and tube system.

After trying several styles of traps, chemical deterrence, and poisons but the mice were getting braver. These traps are easy to add bait, safe around dogs, and easy to clean for next use. After months of disappointments with other traps, all the mice were gone in less than a week.

The traps I received weren't the ones in the photos. The ones I received were very small with silicone handles on top. The caught mice easily ate the silicone handles and then chewed their way through the holes where the handles were. They escaped and the remaining traps are ruined and worthless. I bought 8 traps and they are all trashed without having caught a mouse. It only took about an hour for them to escape this way.

I set the traps in my garage many times. I would check the traps every day and they would be sprung and bait gone but no mice. I heard a trap close and waited to see what's happening. The mouse let himself out after eating the peanuts. They can open the door when they're done. The door spring is too weak for field mice.

I was extremely happy with the style and operation of this product, however I put 2 around to catch him but fortunately he left before I could catch him. The exterminator put poison packs and glue strips around, but I threw them away because I could'nt deal with that idea and immediately purchased the humane traps !

The design of the lightweight trap is fine---and should be very easy to use. But of the two-pack I received, one is totally inoperable because the release door is jammed in too far at a weird angle, disabling door from opening at all with the little release tab. So because I only got one trap out of the two-pack that I can actually use, I can't give a great rating on price or functionality. Don't know if this inoperable trap was just a fluky luck of the draw or overall poor quality control by the company. So I can't fully recommend. The traps that aren't disabled by poor construction, as mine was, should work fine on small rats or mice.

They definitely work for smaller mice. Our basement this winter became nearly infested. It was awful. We filled the holes we needed to, but the mice remained. I got these and my husband set them up. We caught about 6 mice. We did have a rat though. That rat was able to reach in and get the bait out but not get stuck inside.

These work great as long as you release the mice outside soon after they've been trapped. As other reviewers have said, the mice can pull the door up and escape. That happened at least twice when they were inside for more than a few minutes. The traps have 3 major design flaws. First, the door should not have vent holes, their tiny claws can pull the door up with those. Second, the spring on the door needs to be much stronger. Third, the door needs to be a fraction of an inch longer so there is not a tiny space beneath the door, they can also get their tiny claws in that space and pull the door up. If they would make these modifications, the traps would work perfectly.

We put these in our car to try to catch mice, but they only fed mice. The mice loved them - they managed to eat the bait, poop all over the inside of the container, and walked back out. Traps were properly set, and we tested them on placement and removal. We wanted a humane option but ended up going with snap traps - which worked fine.

Bought these to humanely catch and release mice that find their way into our barn. More than half the time when I check them, the trap has closed but there is no mouse inside. So either the mice get out, or the trap springs before the get in (somehow). I'm not sure which. But when I do find a mouse in one, I am happy to have them.
