The Snap E rat traps are not as sensitive as the standard wooden rat traps manufactured by Victor. So a small rat can eat the bait without springing the trap. However, you can re-bait the trap, and generally catch the rat the second time around. And the Snap E traps are SO MUCH EASIER to set than the wooden Victor traps. The wooden traps are really scary. They are so sensitive they usually snap closed with a bang several times before I can get them set. So on balance, I vote for the Snap E traps.

I ordered a six pack of these traps. We have 10 acres of open space behind us that's filled with assorted critters including literally 100's of pack rats. They come into the yard at nite and decimate the garden. I gave one trap to a neighbor and set the remaining 5 using peanut butter for bait. We caught rats in all six traps the first nite and had varying degrees of success for the next week. I was delighted. Then I discovered I was unable to set one of the traps because the plastic latch that holds the trap in the set position had worn smooth. Watch out fingers!! The same thing happened to two more traps leaving me with 3 working traps. They're a great idea, much easier and safer to set than the old wooden ones, and they catch rats. I would have given them 5 stars if they had been more reliable. At 5 bucks a pop they should last longer than a week.

The Snap-e are excellent rat traps, they work great. Easy to set, and the proof of the pudding is that they actually kill rats. Highly recommend.

I purchased a set of 6 of these traps to use for chipmunk control in my yard. Each trap caught 1 or more the first week, and they have been good for multiple catches. They are very easy to use, and I like the fact that my hands are always behind the snapper when setting so I don't feel like my fingers are in danger of getting hurt. I would purchase these again.
