    Victor M040 mouse traps

    By Jess on 06/09/2011

    Finally was able to find a place that sold the old style victor mouse traps with the metal trigger pan! Got a full case of 72 and at a super great price. These traps can't be beat. The newer, plastic pan, traps are ok but the metal pan seems to do a bit better. DoMyOwnPestControl.com is the place to shop!

    I will never again try any trap that contains plastic. They never work. And I would definitely order from this site again. Fast and cheap!

    Victor Mouse traps via internet

    By Jane on 08/11/2012

    Verified Purchase

    I love these "old Fashioned" traps and they are reliable and easy to set, unlike the "new" ones with the plastic pedal for bait. I live in an OLD house and believe these traps are safest (no poison) as I have other animals, and more humane (quick death) than the sticky pads, etc. I could not find them in local stores and was pleased to locate them on internet.

    Great trap but beware!

    By Jess on 05/19/2011

    I'm currently debating whether to purchase this "old style" trap or go with the yellow trigger model. The yellow trigger model is less likely to snap your finger and you can set it very sensitive by pushing the pedal down till the trigger bar "lip" is just barely engaged by the trigger rod---sensitive! But, the old style traps seem to have a slightly better catch ratio. Plus, where can you buy the old style anymore? There, I've convinced myself! I'm ordering a full case of these old style!

    Old-Tyme Workhorse Does the Job

    By Snowtrekker7 on 09/02/2012

    Verified Purchase

    My problem was voles digging up my garden. I had purchased some Tomcat brand mouse traps at our local grocery store. After putting them into use, two of them broke, several set themselves off with nothing caught and 3 had the "cheese" square pop off. So I ordered a dozen Victor mouse traps with the metal bait station. Wow! I could see the difference right away. The Victor trap has a much more powerful spring mechanism and the metal parts and method of attachment to the wooden base are sturdier than the same on the Tomcat traps. When I put the Victor traps into use, I quickly caught 6 voles with no damage to the traps.

    This product works!!!

    By Sue on 09/12/2013

    I ordered these when I realized the brand. I had used them many years ago and had not seen them in years. After using the sticky pads, I began searching and found the Victor traps. They are easy to bait without getting fingers trapped and can be used over and over and over. Great product!!!

    Go with the pro

    By Harrold on 01/19/2011

    I've been using the traditional Victor mouse traps for years and just recently tried the Pro model. I strongly recommend the Pro model, it's the one with the plastic yellow bait holder and is easier to set. I've tried Tomcat and Pic traps, but they're not sensitive enough. The mouse either gets the bait or gets brutally injured and then I have to kill it to put it out of it's misery. I'm having a 100 percent kill rate with these traps. It's the most cost effective way to deal with minor to moderate mouse problems especially if you have pets. I don't like poison because the mouse dies and you don't know where it is. It could be stinking up the place and you'll never find it.

    Good product, good service

    By Chemist on 01/26/2011

    These are the older model traps that always work. I had been looking for these traps in our local stores and could not find them. DoMyOwnPestControl delivered them to my front door.

    I just bought a pack of these, placed two near an entry point where a mouse had been going into the attic and caught the mouse. More humane and environmentally sound than most alternatives, these work well.

    Fast Shipping - The best traps

    By Bob on 12/16/2012

    This was shipped very fast; ordered on a weekend and had it within a couple of days. I could only find the traps with the plastic cheese bait - which mainly served to feed my growing mouse population in my garage. No where near sensitive enough. I even watched one mouse feeding off it. The first night I set out 4 of these and got four mice; in fact, I got 11 the first few nights, the bait was taken without it tripping only once. Is 72 too many? I live in a subdivision surrounded by a dairy farm; I prefer not to reuse if I can. I am sure I will use all of them over time - and no more looking in stores for them! I am very happy with my purchase from this company!

    I put 2 mousetraps near a garage entrance where a mouse had been entering to go up to the attic and the mouse was caught in 2 days. I didn't use bait. No chemicals and more humane than poison.

    Very good mousetrap

    By Ronald on 09/06/2012

    They were renovating the apartment downstairs and two little field mice decided to move in with me. They were only here one day. These traps are easy to use and very effective.

    Victor-the only real mouse trap! Again

    By Fredg on 08/20/2012

    Verified Purchase

    Caught one the first night the traps arrived and his slow friend the second. The two traps that I set are still set waiting for old #3 Mr. Meese straggler and his cheese and peanut butter eating friends. Have tried three different types of mouse traps over the last few years, the close pin squeeze to set type (worthless, you'd be better off using paper clips to gouge their eyes out or Cheese covered "No trespassing Mr. Mouse" signs). And mouse traps from China? Give your money to an alcoholic, it'll be better spent then on anything Made in China including their pretend mouse traps. Their (China) mouse traps have the strength of a dead butterfly, of zero value. My previous traps only slapped the mice and every one of them walked away laughing. The Victor traps squished their heads flat. The only good mouse is a motionless, flat headed, poppy eyed dead mouse. That makes old men like me happy. Fast shipping from Do My Own Pest Control and really strong springs in these Victor traps. I bought a dozen, so skip the other stuff, these things work.

    Best Traps Ever, Stick with the Classic Style

    By Rachael on 01/27/2022

    These traps work far better than the newer ones with the plastic style bait station. And just so you know, the BEST bait ever is tootsie roll!!! It doesn't go stale like peanut butter or cheese and the mice love it. Just warm up a bit of the tootsie roll and mold it into the bait station.

    Mousetrap

    By Ken on 03/12/2021

    These are excellent mouse traps. The new style traps are mice best friends. I ordered the old style trap and every trap caught a mouse. The new style traps failed to catch a single mouse.

    Reliable

    By Shave on 03/06/2021

    I let my son set 2 of these up. He set them wrong , and the mice got comfortable. I showed him how to properly set them and then he re-deployed them. They worked flawlessly. Two mice down, not sure how many more to go. There are many traps out there, but this style of trap seems to get them every time.

    best mouse traps

    By Jane on 10/23/2020

    Have always used Victor mouse traps. Couldn't find them so I bought a cheap knockoff, didn't catch any. Ordered Victor on line, the day they arrived I set the traps, that night caught 4. No more mice for right now. I live in the edge of the woods and it is getting cold, so they will be looking for a warm place, but the Victor Mouse traps well take care of that.

    The Original Style Victor Mouse Trap: the Real McCoy

    By Fr. on 08/24/2020

    DoMyOwn.com leaves all the competition totally in the dust both on price, and on FreeShipping on the 10-trap base package: can't beat that! Proven original effective design that does the job. Some people still use traditional bait of cheese or peanut butter -- but cheese becomes brittle and peanut butter becomes rancid; I use jelly candy fruit slices (Orange/Cherry/etc) , saving the lion's share of the slice for me, and the small sticky square for the little varmint: they have a "sweet tooth" just like people, and moreover -- they die happy! Have actually had it happen, that the "hair-trigger" trap went off without any mouse caught in it -- instead, alongside the trap lay the corpse of the little bugger, having died of an apparent heart attack, the nearly same sort sensation having the hair-trigger" trap go off in one's hands whilst positioning it... Wonderful that the traps are still being made!...

    Can't Be Beat

    By Joe on 07/03/2020

    I have used this traditional wooden/simple catch spring Victor trap for 50+ years. I have tried the more modern designs, but nothing beats the old Victor. Why make catching mice technologically advanced and more complicated when you don't have to? Kudos to DoMyOwn for continuing to stock it.

    Using small manual traps for field mice, too small for pack rats, but good choice for mice.

    By Tess on 06/12/2020

    It's hard to find these kinds of traps, the newer version being part plastic. The newer version doesn't work as well either.
