5.0 out of 5 stars Gets clever mice, November 20, 2006

In my garage I currently have 4 of these babies, 6 of the Victor brand and 4 of a different brand - all similar style (quick-set, easy disposal). The intruder traps outperform the others by orders of magnitude!

It was not uncommon to check the traps in the morning and find 4 dead mice in the intruders and none of the others even snapped!

I only bought the other traps because I could not find the intruder mouse traps at our local stores any more. I think our mice are just too clever for the other traps. The intruder traps are truly hair-trigger and really work.

Occasionally I'll find one snapped without a mouse. Make sure you tie a string to them. Before I started doing that, I had a couple of traps walk away probably because they snapped on a mouse's tail.

We live in the great wilderness known as Connecticut and have some very clever mice who, despite my best efforts, manage to find their way into our home every winter. I finally got sick of risking digits every time I needed to set a mouse trap (although I miss the rush, I need to use a keyboard every day at the office). The next step was to get a cat, but happily I found these first since I hate cats. In contrast to the wooden devices first introduced in early 12th century Europe, these traps are extremely easy to bait, set and place. You have to try really hard to hurt yourself with one of these -- in fact, I don't think it's possible. The entire design is very clever and the product photo on amazon doesn't do them justice. A quantum leap forward in trap design.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works like a snap! (ok, bad joke)., May 28, 2009

This review is from: Better Mousetrap 6 Pack

I bought an old farm that is miles from proper civilization and wildlife can gallivant around with impunity. The 150 year old farmhouse is a stone throw from the barn and stables, which offers an attractive invitation to small furry quadrupeds of the rodent variety. Why spend your nights shivering in the barn or in the fields when there's a warm, dry house nearby? A house of food and water, and ample nooks to build a new nest? The logic of the argument is sound, and mice, being mathematically logical creatures, decided to move in.

First it was the tell-tale evidence of droppings along the sink and counters. Then my bag of loose-leaf tea imported from England was targeted, causing the highly-caffeinated mice to poop in more inventive places and in mind-boggling ways. Then came the mid-night scurrings in the walls beside my bed. That settled it.

I purchased the Intruder Better Mouse Trap and loaded them with peanut butter. The trigger mechanism is light - I snapped them numerous times while handling the traps. But don't fear: you won't break any bones if your digit is clamped. I tell you this from experience. The trap doesn't crush the mice as much as it suffocates the little blighters.

One the very first night I had the traps in place I caught a mouse. Several days later another one bit it, and since then I have had no further mouse problems.

Releasing the dead mouse is simple - you just pinch the ends of the trap and PLOP the mouse falls into the trash. There's no "ick" factor because the mice are not crushed like other traps might. The process is simple, clean, and obviously works well.

I still have the traps set in various places in my house, in case a new batch of mice decide to move in. Until then, I can enjoy my English loose leaf tea and rest at night without disturbance.
