Victor Tin Cat
By Verna on 10/14/2012
These are great. I bait them with peanut butter and oatmeal mixed together to catch as many mice as fast as I can. I have also sent many friends your way. I've caught as many many as 10 mouse in a trap in one night. I do recommend removing the mice after each night though.

Best trap Ever!
By Sherri on 09/03/2012
I have been trying to catch a couple of mice that found their way inside via the doggie door. After giving up on the have a hart trap after 2 months, I bought three if these traps. They are great! I caught 2 adult mice and a baby mouse within a week. The traps are easy to use - no setup - and it was easy to let the mice out after I took them a couple of miles away from the house. I would recommend to anyone.

Mice Not flying anywhere
By Phil on 01/04/2013
I work at an airport and we are responsible for taking care of the rodent problems for the airlines and other tenants. Only trick is we have to catch them live and release them out in a field. This trap has not failed once. If we get a report of a rodent problem within two days of setting the trap we have eradicated the problem. I think what makes this trap so successful is the pivot pad. Once they go off that other side of the paddle there done. And the window on top is nice to easily confirm a catch. The mice at THIS airport aren't flying anywhere!

This truly IS a better mousetrap!
By Brunnhilde on 04/27/2015
Great product. The first couple of days it didn't trap a single mouse--maybe they were 'checking it out.' But then the trapping began, and every day the trap catches a few. I live in the country, and the recent severe winters have encouraged an increase in mice seeking warmth inside the house, but this trap is taking care of the problem.

Mouse traps

Lucky Mouse
By Jeffrey on 06/19/2013
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.
Excellent

Tin Cat Mouse Trap
By Terry on 02/27/2013
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.

These humane traps work perfectly
By Sandy on 07/07/2020
It takes a little patience, but it's worth it. When I had a mouse problem in my kitchen, I used two of these & I would typically catch one or two mice each night & relocate them to a nearby parkette. After a couple weeks, I would only catch one or two every few days & finally they disappeared altogether. I don't know for certain if they survived in their new environment, but I would put out a little food & water for them in their new surroundings to give them a headstart, & then they were on their own.
Great trap if you got a cat

Humane and Easy to Use
By Randy on 10/14/2022
We cannot deal with kill traps or sticky pads. We do not use poisons because of our pets. And while mice can be destructive, but hawks and foxes have to eat as well. We had a mouse infestation in our parked RV. That is bad enough, but you do not want is to have a mouse or other such animal die somewhere where it cannot be found. I had used the Victor Tin Cat in my garage in the past so know they were effective and easy to use. I put two in a compartment where I knew they frequented and caught three the first day. I like this version with the clear lid since you do not have to open to see if there are mice in it. I took them down a steep, twisty, back country canyon road, well away from our home- about .7 or .8 miles. Three days in a row I caught three mice. I then took them about 5 miles away and in three weeks after that I only caught one mouse. Their homing ability is astounding. Good price. Fast shipping, and an effective and humane trap.
