This product does not come with directions! I want to get rid of mice. I have no idea how to use this product and I can not find out to use this product on the website. It seems to me I spent money on a worthless product.

  Expert response:
Thank you for your comments. We apologize for any confusion. The Victor Tin Cat Mouse Trap is ready to use as it comes. The trap has 2 one-way doors which allow a mouse to enter the trap, but then not to exit. You simply make sure the lid is securely closed, then place the trap along pathways wear mice are likely to be travelling, such as in the center of a wall, so that the openings into the trap are closest to the wall. You can place a food attractant such as nut butter, cooked bacon, or chocolate inside the trap as an attractant. You can also use a Victor Tin Cat Glue Board inside the trap: http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/victor-tin-cat-glue-boards-m309-case-72-boards-p-463.html Please feel to contact us anytime that you may have questions regarding a product or treatment.

Guess the mice are too smart. Haven't caught one yet. Have it baited with peanut butter and salami.

  Expert response:
Thank you for your feedback! Be sure that you have placed traps along runways where you have observed rodent activity. You can also use a glue trap on top of the trap in case mice are going over the top instead of into the trap. Please let us know if you have further questions!

The first couple of days we used this we caught mice (4 nights, 2 mice each of the first 3 nights and then 1 mouse the 4th night) but since then the mice are getting in, eating the cracker left there and then leaving .... somehow! I have weighted down the top and covered the air vents with tape so they must be leaving the same way they got in. Do you have any suggestions? PLACEMENT is NOT THE PROBLEM as I did catch mice first few nights in same place.

  Expert response:
Thank you for your comments! Weighing the cover is the first suggestion we would offer and generally the only way mice would be able to escape a live trap. If you have stations with a clear lid, there have been a few instances where particularly persistent mice have been able to chew through the clear lid. The only other possibility we have heard is that if the bait/food were placed just inside the trap door, then perhaps a mouse could start to enter the trap and reach the bait without walking off the ramp, before the one-way door closes completely. Using glue traps inside the trap is always a good idea to help insure that mice cannot escape the traps. Please let us know if we can further assist you!

Well built but mice do not seem interested in moving in with peanut butter bait that has worked in my snap traps. Will try Tomcat mouse bait gel next as its working in other "single seater" enclosure traps I have

I bought this trap hoping to catch mice, without using the snap traps. Well the snap trap works. Ihad this for one month with no success.

I had a couple of mice in my house and I put out 1 Victor Tin Cat and 6 mini-T-Rex. First mouse ended up in the Tin Cat and was released back into the wild for being smart and lucky. 2nd mouse was not as smart and went for the T-Rex. Mouse problem solved. Tin Cat was simple and easy to use and is ready for next time we have a problem. As for bait I tried a slim-jim with no luck and then added peanut butter to the mix and that did the trick.

I had a problem with mice in one of my small chicken houses. Because if the chickens, I couldn't use a regular trap or poisons so I decided to try the Tin Cat. I placed a Tin Cat equipped with a glue board next to a wall. Within 3 days, I had nine mice. I emptied them out and replaced the glue board. Two days later, I had five more mice. It works better than I expected.
