Customer Reviews for Catchmaster 612 Multi-Catch Mouse Trap

I've had a mouse problem in my aviary, and have used several moustraps. They would occaisionally catch few mice each month. Then I used two CATCHMASTER 612, and within 24 hrs I trapped 13 mice. Its terricic because the birds and other animals in the aviary are safe. I consistenty caught several mice a day, and after a few weeks the mouse problem is no longer big issue. I still use the trap and catch a few each week, it has been amazing how effective the trap has been

We had a house mouse that was causing all kinds of trouble in our kitchen but I am an animal lover and couldn't stand the thought of using a "standard" mousetrap. I got online to do research to see if a humane trap existed and I was pleased to find this as an option. (However I was appalled at the idea of purchasing sticky glue pads to put inside the trap which would absolutely NOT be humane.) We put the trap out the day it arrived and by the next morning it had a furry resident. Our house mouse is now enjoying his freedom in a woods a mile or so away. I highly recommend this trap as an easy and humane way to relocate an unwanted houseguest. Plus there is NO need to get the glue pads as it was perfectly effective without it.

I have caught several mice--it works great--a lot cheaper than local stores.

Wonderful humane design, unfortunately the mouse won't go in it! I think he has ESP and knows I want to catch him and put him outside. Size is good and looks good. I think it would work just great if the mouse would cooperate. Still trying though so will let you know.

I bought my first Catchmaster about 4 or 5 years ago. I have found that dry cat food is the best for luring the mice in. I put a paper towel in the open area and put about 10 pieces of the cat food in. This trap was fantastic this past winter when a neighbor living across the street was evacuated and they tore the place down. My neighbors and I were hit with the onslaught of hundreds of mice and/or rats. I check it daily to humanely get rid of the mice. Trick is to rinse it out so other mice don't smell any urine or feces inside. Of course my feral cats outside are very happy to see me with the trap because they I will be going to the wood pile in the field and they can hunt! I need another trap so I am now buying another one.

I have caught no one and nothing in these traps. I was having trouble with a similar trap and thought perhaps the mechanism had broken down. But, no, my mice can get into these, eat the bait and tiptoe out.

I have 3 of these in use in the house - I like the live traps - seem to work faster when you put food inside - although does work without. easy to release - just open lid ! & take 1/2 mile from house down the driveway. Caught 2 each night last week - has slackened off a bit now ! Hope they stay gone - must work on how they are getting in !!!!! My husband used to say - they return for their snack ! Very pleased with these traps - work better than the wind up ones - that kept getting jammed up. Good price & delivery on time, Nothing to go mechanically wrong with them & last forever.

This really worked... We never had mice in the house but suddenly found a small family of mice had gotten into the kitchen. I wanted an effective way to catch them without hurting them and then release them into the woods. The Multi-catch Mouse Trap was easy to bait and set out. Within two hours a few small mice were trapped.... We did this over a period of a day and trapped all the mice without hurting them.

Product works just as it should! Came in great timing and the price was unbeatable. I recommend using this product if you are looking for a catch and release trap. I was able to solve what could have been weeks diy'ing in a day. Thank you!

I used this at a friend's house. He has been trying to get rid of some mice for over a year with no luck. They can be heard in the attic and occasionally spotted running across the floor at night. We put dry cat food in it, checked it two days later and nothing. Haven't had time to try anything else, if we ever get it working we'll update.

  Expert response:
We apologize you have not received the expected results! When trapping mice, trap placement is very important. You want to make sure the trap is placed parallel to a wall directly in the travel path of the mice. Can you tell us how the trap was placed?

I bought two of these live-catch traps. One for my infested garage, and one for the house. The garage rodents were disposed of in three days, often with multiple catches. I did add a glue board to the trap for bait. The mouse that I knew I had in the house was caught the second day the trap was out, also with a glue board inside. These worked much better than just the glue boards by themselves.

So far there isn't any mice trap inside since I got it. Maybe the mice are too smart or the mice couldn't get inside...

  Expert response:
If you haven't had traps very long, then you may need to give the rodents a few days to trust the traps. You can also use a food attractant like peanut butter or pet food on the inside edge of the ramp to help lure mice into the traps.

I thought I had only one mouse living under my house, so I bought this trap to catch it and release it on the other side of town. No mouse on the first day, but the second day, I caught one. I took it about 10 miles away and let it run off. When I got home, I put the trap back, but with no bait. About an hour later, another one walked into the trap! Long story short, I caught three mice! No more squeaks coming from under my house! This is a simple, yet wonderful trap. The mice cannot escape no matter how hard they try.

Very easy to use, requires no set-up, and no dead, bloody mouse body to dispose off. Carry to release area, open the lid, and let the mouse go.

This live trap is amazing!! We have caught 11 mice so far! I run an animal rescue and do not want poison out as I have several dogs that can possibly get in it, not to mention I don't need the smell of the mice in my walls after they die. This is a great way to catch the mice, the product is inexpensive and very effective!! I highly recommend anyone with the mouse problem to get this trap!!

This thing did the job in only two days. Great design in that the top of the trap is clear allowing you to easily see if there are "visitors." Two mice in two days and we're now rodent free. Like everything else we've bought from these folks this one is reasonably priced, easy to use, and it WORKS !

I have a problem in my aviary where mice like to pilfer the doves' sunflower seeds from their feed bowl. Moved the bowl for the night, put one of these loaded with sunflower seeds in the same spot. Next morning, I have three little thieving rodents in it frantically scurrying around. They are a bit flimsy in structure, but I only paid $7 for it at Walmart, so hopefully it catches a lot more mice before it wears out.

I was a little skeptical when I seen the traps, but put them in the shop and have caught three mice in two of the four traps set this week. These traps in my view work very well, I also put mouse poison in the boxes so I won't have to deal with live mice.

Works great, caught four mice in two days with one trap using peanut butter on a paper towel cut in four slices, I bought twelve traps, I shaded them to create a dark safe place, I would recommend them to a friend.

This works well with a bit of peanut butter. Catches mice and keeps them for a bit. I love the "no kill" aspect of this and the cleanup is very good. Easy to release the mice after catching. I previously had plastic traps but the mice chewed through them. this metal is a good alternative.

Caught a mouse in the morning. Before I could take somewhere to release it. He somehow broke one of the trap doors and escaped. I now call him Houdini. 1st time trying it no longer usable. Waste of money.

The best way to catch mice, versus traps. I don't release my mice so they can come back in.

I have recommended the style of trap for years, because it works beautifully. But this year, two or three of my mice figured it out! They came in, ate the peanut butter, and left! I still recommend this, because it works so well, for so long. I just now need to change it up a bit!
