Tomcat Rat Snap Trap

Very easy to bait and set up. A lot safer than rhe old style.

I really haven't had a problem with the traps except that they don't last long if I mymake a suggestion you mite want to use a steel clamp so that at the price you are charging that you might be able to sell more than what you are known. Because after it snaps one good time, the clamp breaks and it is no longer any use. So I decided to let you know before going online to find how many other people are having the same problem.

Pest control company wasn't having any luck with their tamperproof boxes and bar traps, or the live animal traps they brought. Our furniture was being shredded from within, and it destroyed my wife's Valentine's flowers. I bought two of these Tomcat Rat Traps and the Attractant Gel - woke up to large dead rat this morning. See photo, the floor tiles are 16"x16" for scale.

I moved into my mother's old house and apparently it has a freeway for rats in it somewhere. So I bought 3 of these traps, because the little traps I found were too small to catch rats, And the wooden wire ones for rats was too hard for me to set. We have caught a ton of rats and mice in these sometimes two at a time! I do wish that we could buy replacement bait cups though.

Had some rats chew through my hurricane supplies in my garage. Put three of these Tomcat traps in various areas. Found the sweet spot where the entry hole into my attic is. 4 rats dead in 24 hours same trap. Three rats in a 4 hour span. That included one trap killing two rats at once. Baited it with peanut butter. Clean up is easy, never had to touch the rats just opened the clamshell and the dead rats just drop out. It's a quick kill, I heard the trap go off and was up there about a minute and a half and the rat was lifeless. Thanks for making it so easy.

I bought 3 traps as our small garden section appeared to be attracting rats. We caught 2 in live traps but I didn't enjoy having to drown them afterward. The first night we caught three. We used peanut butter laced with bird seed. The second night nothing HOWEVER I appeared to not lock the bait cup in place and the dang rat took it down his hole. How do I get a replacement?

Easy to set. I had several rats escape until I modified the trap by installing 2 drywall screws in the corners of the lid and making sure the screws cleared the trigger. I also put a strip of reflective tape on the top and sides of trap to see them at night. Also I make sure they are secured with a cord. Rats can get partially trapped and can either escape or run off with the trap I have video security cameras on the traps recording the action. I have got 22 rats in my backyard since the middle of July using 5 traps.

This trap cannot be reliably set. The first time, it took several tries before the trap locked in the open-jaw position. I was able to successfully get a rat (peanut butter and crushed dog kibble), but haven't been able to re-set the trap since. Too bad, because it seemed to work the one time I was able to set it! Of course, I've tossed the packaging and am not particularly excited about mailing a used trap to get a refund.

I bought this trap three days ago and it is broken already. I had three catches and then it broke. It is a poor design. There are two little tabs on the bottom next to the back that act as a tension for the tab. This should have been a metal spring. Needs a redesign.
