Wordless Wednesday - warning - dead mouse photo ahead

And the rest of the story...

Put a dab of peanut butter on the yellow center circle and place trap. When mouse is caught, it kills it instantly when the trap closes on it's neck. Carry trap to disposal site, squeeze the ends together and the mouse falls out. In this case, into a plastic bag that was sealed and taken to the dumpster.  Sorry mouse, but you can't be in my house.

Tomcat Mouse Snap Trap - Best little mouse trap I've ever seen. 

Barbara/Katie 3, Mice 0.

(See sidebar on right for link to Amazon page with Tomcat info. I've bought a bunch of different kinds of traps, but this Snap Trap is the only that that has worked.)

From me and Katie, have a great mouse-free Wednesday, everyone!  :)

  1. You might want to buy a couple extra, as they seem to wear out rather quickly. I like them because you never have to touch the mouse.

  2. Judy - that's why I bought them. They're like a binder clip. I do have one of the old wooden traps, but I've never used it. I'm afraid I'll snap my finger in it. I'm not afraid of snapping myself with the Tomcat trap. And disposing of the dead mouse is so easy, like you said, you never touch the mouse. I'm so glad I found these, now I can stop buying every kind of trap out there! :)

  3. Tried both. The mice I caught went all into the old fashioned ones. Never the Tomcat-trap. Weird, eh?
    I like mice, even had a tame, white one when I was a child. But I do not accept them as wild rodents in my house/camper.

  4. So there is a better mousetrap? I've got the traditional design but will order the Tomcat. I hope I never have to find out which works best.

  5. We discover one mouse and four fairly new babies when we picked up our motorhome the other day. They had found a spot in a tarp next to our propane tank which has a wire bottom. We weren't too interested in killing them or keeping them. They found a new home across the field.

  6. I'm going to get some just to have on hand. I've been lucky so far. I want something that would kill them instantly.
