Customer Reviews for Victor Quick Kill Mouse Trap

These are supposed to be "quick, humane kill" mouse traps. They are far from that. Every time they trip, the mouse thrashes around in agony and I have had to dispatch 9 out of 10 myself because they were horribly injured but not killed by these traps. I bought them because they are Victor and I have used their electronic traps in the past to good effect. I wanted something that would quickly and humanely kill mice. These are not at all what I was hoping for. I'm going back to the electronic traps, they kill instantly.

The problem is that the mouse has to poke his head in a little hole to get the bait to get the trap to spring. Just running over them does not cause these traps to snap. I had mice just running over top of them. Traditional traps can be sprung by the mouse running over it or bumping it. Not these.

I bought these because they were supposed to kill quickly and humanely. Unfortunately, they don't. In 9 out of 10 kills of mice the first day, the mice were alive and caught in the trap to die in pain. When you are able to release the mouse alive from the trap, it can in no way be described as "quick kill". Having purchased Victor's electronic mouse traps in the past, I expected better.

This was my first time ordering this trap and I couldn't be more pleased with construction and ease of use. Worth the money!

These traps work exceptionally well. They effectively eliminate bait stealing by small mice or those with tendencies to nibble. The trap is actuated differently than other traps on the market. I have caught many mice with this trap and all were cleanly killed. I have never found the trap sprung without catching a mouse. I have a hard time understanding the complaints posted here of mice being partially caught and suffering since the bait door must be lifted by the mouse in order to activate the striking mechanism. A mouse that lifts the door while rooting for the bait is directly beneath the striker.

This trap is the best we've had. Tried glue, original victor wood trap, electronic, etc. Mice are filthy, disease carrying rodents. This trap kills them every time.

Not a quick kill, there is a mouse thrashing around in my kitchen right now stuck on the trap. Gross!

I've tried many different styles of traps, but this one has had the best ratio of trips to catch mice of them all. Some other styles either go off too easy, snapping if something brushes it and catching nothing or coming down on just a leg leaving a live rodent trapped. Others get their bait stolen half the time without tripping. These I've never had the bait stolen without catching something and it always crushes the rodents head when it trips. The mouse may twitch for a few seconds after the trap springs but its already dead, the body just does not know it yet.
