It puts the cute in execute,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ortho 0320110 Home Defense Max Kill & Contain Mouse Trap - 2 Pack (Lawn & Patio)
Clean cheap and efficient with a stylish design that puts the cute in execute. This engine of rodent revenge gives you endless options to display your mastery over these soldiers of the devil. The trap is easy to bait and holds these egotistical little vermin in a grip that, if no action is taken, will slowly squeeze the squeek out of them and send a message to their fellow gangsters. Look at the action shot I placed under the product image above.
The tiny bait door is cleverly placed so that you can open it and look the little monsters eye to eye and they will know who THE MAN is. The delayed death feature gives you other options for execution if you want to get revenge and further demonstrate your domination. With a small bucket you can waterboard them and the trap is microwave safe but be sure to use the lowest power setting to avoid mouse detonation. This is not clear in the directions. This is a great little trap and so much fun. OK OK this is satire. The point is that the trap doesn't kill mice so you have two choices. One: you can kill them yourself by any imaginative technique or Two: you can release the little buggers which involves pushing the lever back down while a crazed and really pissed off mouse comes tearing out of the trap and going for you.

It DOES work,
This review is from: Ortho 0320110 Home Defense Max Kill & Contain Mouse Trap - 2 Pack (Lawn & Patio)
A mouse/mice had gotten in my pantry necessitating a very time consuming cleanup with bleach and disinfectants. I was determined to get rid of said vermin. I bought 3 different traps to test effectiveness, this Ortho Kill & Contain trap, another Ortho that is spring-loaded, and a Victor maze-type trap that is live catch. The one that worked right away was the Ortho Kill & Contain - worked the very first night. For me, the mouse was killed. Even if this trap doesn't kill the mouse as some others have mentioned, I will still use this trap. My main goal is not a totally humane kill, it's to trap the mice and get rid of them and this trap does do it effectively. Although I understand how some people might be very concerned that the mouse isn't killed instantly, giving a 1 star rating is a bit extreme. Mice may seem cute but they are disease carrying pests.

Easy to use for the squeamish,
This review is from: Ortho 0320110 Home Defense Max Kill & Contain Mouse Trap - 2 Pack (Lawn & Patio)
The trap I used to find at local home improvement stores (a see-saw type box that rests on a pivot point--the mouse travels to the far end to get the bait, tipping the box and shutting the door) is no longer around. So I tried this. Easier to set than my previous traps. It has a bait door that simply pops open and a push lever that sets the trap inside. I use peanut butter. The closed box seems quite sanitary, and as Ortho claims, blends into the surroundings rather unobtrusively. The side with the lever has easy to read indicators--"set", "mouse caught" and "reset"--that can be read from a distance if you don't want to get too close. And the trap has a little handle to pick it up for disposal (without getting anywhere near the mouse inside). This is advertised as a "kill and contain" trap--a rather conventional plastic snap lever nicely concealed inside a plastic sleeve (sanitizing the experience of killing a mouse). I can't vouch for the claims that some make, but some have said if the mouse is small enough, this trap will simply catch it inside (and not kill it), so as to make it possible to release the mouse into the wild. This trap isn't designed or marketed for catch and release (after all, it does have a spring mechanism), but I assume it can be used that way (provided the mouse doesn't experience too much trauma).
My only complaint is that as the field mouse I caught was so small (and yes, it caught my mouse the first night I set it out), that the side lever incorrectly read "reset" rather than "mouse caught". Looking inside, I could see the mouse's tail. Nonetheless, this trap gets the job done. Release into the wild or dispose of as you like. As with all traps, your mouse may or may not be dead inside, so how humane on the scale this trap falls is really your call. I may still hunt for the true catch and release trap, if I can find it locally.
