    Q
    How does the Victor Tin Cat Mouse Trap work? Will it really hold 30 mice at a time?
    Once a mouse enters and a door is triggered to close behind them, how do other mice enter?
    A

    Each mouse will walk up the ramp of the Victor Tin Cat Mouse Trap. When they get to the end of the ramp, the mouses weight will push down the ramp, after they step off it will rise back up effectively trapping the mouse and will be ready for the next mouse to enter. The Victor Tin Cat Mouse Trap can hold up to 30 mice at a time, can be used as a live trap without a glue board and a kill trap with a glueboard.

    Q
    How do I get rid of a rat in the kitchen?
    I saw droppings on my kitchen counter around March 12th. I suspected rats or mice (hoped for mice over rats). A neighboor told me they saw a rat in their apartment (same building) in early March. I put rat glue traps out this week and a humane mouse trap. Nothing happened. I saw the rat this morning just before dawn and saw where it ran into a corner by the dishwasher. I repositioned the glue traps in that corner; but, I am afraid I might not be using the most effective pest control. What should I do? Looks like a full grown Norway rat.

    Glueboards are a good choice for indoor use. You could try to put a small piece of food right in the middle of the board to help lure the rat on to the glueboard (dry cat food works very well). It is recommended to put out several boards in in the areas where you have noticed activity which would be helpful for rats who are trying to avoid the board you have already placed out. Another way to go would be baited rat snap traps. We do not recommend using poison baits indoors because of the possibility of having the rodent die in an inaccessible area which could lead to horrible odors and secondary insect infestations.

    Q
    What would attract the mice to get in the trap? Any special treat (poison) that needs to be placed inside?
    A
    A lot of people choose to put a little dot of Provoke Mouse Attractant on the very end of the ramp to help draw the mice in. Be sure to place the Tin Cat repeating mouse trap along a baseboard or in a corner where mice are known to travel. Mice are naturally inquisitive and will start to investigate the trap after a week or two.

    Q
    Why is the Victor Tin Cat mouse trap more expensive than the Catchmaster Multi-Catch Mouse Trap 612?
    A

    The Victor Tin Cat-Solid Top is made of a thicker, hardier metal than the Catchmaster 612. These traps are made by two different manufacturers.
