Victor® Quick-Kill® Mouse Traps - 3 Pack

I am very traumatized right now. This was first time used this piece of crap product. An hour ago heard trap on mouse. It had its neck but it was very much alive, trap flopping around trying to get loose. Then started screaming, then would stop for minute, thought died but then flopping, screaming again. I couldn't let it suffer like that. I have never had this happen with regular traps and I didn't know what to do. I got shovel and thought one good hit and it would be over but it only made him hurt worse, I think trap got part of it so did it again and trap went flying, he flew out and finally died. It was horrible. I guess I should have sprung trap right away to lessen its pressure but I didn't think of it, all I wanted was to end it's suffering. I am still crying. I am no wimp but I will have to find a way to get over how I caused that pain. I don't do drama, this was BAD. DO NOT TRY THIS PRODUCT

I do like the concept for the bait & trigger. HOWEVER, it's not strong enough to do the job & there is a ⅚" gap between the bar & the base. This design oversight allows for a small 3" mouse to get it's head stuck while maintaining airway & spinal integrity, if it triggers the bar from an angle. This flaw forces the customer to finish the job. Unfortunately, rodents in the wild are not trained to only enter the trap directly from the front & to trigger it only while being under the 2" red "kill zone" bar. Sorry Victor. Maybe the team should consider a more Humane redesign that will swiftly neutralize an unpredictable pest. Kind regards, D.G.

I set four traps out in my garage. All four traps caught mice but didn’t kill them, just severely injured them and then we had to kill them in the morning after what I assume being several hours of agonizing pain for the mice. Thanks for the trauma.

Mice completely ignored them

It says "humane". Yeah right. It snaps the mouse's neck and they're still alive

I have used Victor mouse traps for many years and found the Quick-Kill mouse trap the most sanitary and effective to use by far. The engineered design of this trap is impressive and has always resulted in quick kills and no escapes. I will recommend this trap to anyone in need of a trap.

I bought these traps because I like the design and ease of setting. I also like the covered bait cup. I only used them for a short time, but have not caught anything in them yet even though they have tripped a few times. Not sure what is going on with that, but I feel like they are designed well and should work. I gave them a 4 stars based on that. I am not giving up them just yet.

I’m shocked at former reviews because this product is so effective for me. It’s easy to load bait and set. Disposal of rodent could not be easier! The bait never gets touched and resetting is a breeze! I have and will continue to recommend this product!

In some ways, there are parts of this design that are good. The trap is very easy to set, and the door mechanism prevents mice from stealing bait without getting caught. Those things could be commended, but this trap has a major, glaring flaw that cannot be ignored: It does not kill mice. Unlike older style metal spring traps, which usually manage to instantly break a mouse's neck, killing them right away, this trap simply is too weak to do this. It just maims the mouse, leaving them writhing in pain on your floor, screaming, and very much alive. I have tried this trap three times in the past. Three times it has failed to kill effectively, and three times I have had to finish off the mouse with my own hands. In truth, there is no "Humane" way to kill an animal, but there are certainly inhumane ways. This is one of them. What you get in the convenience of setting the trap is massively outweighed by the suffering this design will cause. Not recommended.

Do not buy this trap. It is not lethal. I heard a banging noise in the middle of the night and the poor mouse was flopping around with its head stuck in the trap. I had to take him outside and kill him with a brick to put him out of his misery. Very unpleasant thing to have to do, especially in the middle of the night. I wish I would have read these review before I bought the trap - not because of the waste of money, but because it is so inhumane. I HOPE VICTOR WILL READ THIS AND QUIT SELLING THESE. Their regular spring traps are still the bet.
