We live in the country, so mice are a never ending battle in our home. I have purchase just about every humane mouse trap on the market, with limited success. Some traps the mice would not enter at all and others, the mice would simply escape after eating the snack inside. I was a bit reluctant to try these mouse cubes as they seem so simple...am I ever thankful that I did try these. The Mice Cube is by far the best humane mouse trap that I have found. They are simple to use, and amazingly effective. Another nice feature of these traps is their small size, they easily fit in a drawer or other tight space where mice like to visit. Releasing the mouse or mice from the trap is incredibly simple, you just turn the trap over and the door opens. As with any live catch trap, the trap should be checked often as captured mice need to be released as quickly as possible. To clean the traps when needed, I purchased a mop bucket from the dollar store and soak the traps in a mild bleach solution, I then rinse them well with water and after allowing them to dry, they are as good as new. I would highly recommed these traps to anyone looking for a simple, humane solution to dealing with mice in your home.
