Large chamber and humane, high-voltage shock for catching and killing larger rats
Easy to use – insert batteries, add bait, turn on & place trap
LED light notifies you of a kill or low battery
Never touch a dead rodent – simply tip into the trash!
Kills up to 60 rats per set of 4 “D” Batteries (not included)
Eliminate your rodent problem quickly and effectively with the Victor® Rat Zapper® Ultra Rat Trap. From set-up and use through cleaning and maintenance, each zap will be a snap thanks to the easy-to-use design. The ultra-sized chamber is ideal for targeting larger rats that invade your property. This humane trap kills rodents using a high-voltage shock and since rats are able to restart their hearts, the shock is applied for 2 minutes to ensure higher kill rates. To get started, simply apply a high protein bait in the provided bait cup, place the trap in a location with high rodent activity and turn it on.

High-Voltage Shock Humanely Kills Rodents
The Rat Zapper® Ultra is equipped with smart circuit technology that senses when a rodent enters the trap. Once the rodent is inside, it steps on the metal plates, completing the circuit and the trap delivers a continuous high-voltage shock for 2 minutes to effectively eliminate rat invader. This trap is capable of eliminating up to 60 rats per set of fully charged batteries (4 “D”).
LED Light Alerts
With the Victor® Rat Zapper® Ultra Rat Trap, simplifying your pest control routine is a breeze. Each time the trap catches a rat, the light on top of the trap flashes red to indicate a kill. You’ll know when it’s time to empty your trap without having to check manually. Plus, the convenient LED light function will not only notify you of a catch, but it will also alert you when the trap’s battery is running low by rapidly flashing red.
No-Touch Cleanup
With the Rat Zapper® Ultra, cleanup is effortless! Unlike standard rat traps, you don’t have to touch or look at dead rodents. The rat is contained within the kill chamber, which hides it from sight, while the indicator light lets you know when it’s time to empty. After a kill, just tip the trap to discard the dead rodent into the trash without having to touch it.
How to Set the Rat Zapper® Ultra
For your convenience, the Victor® Rat Zapper® Ultra Rat Trap is very easy to use. Get your trap setup by following these four simple steps:
Add Bait - Apply a small amount of high-protein bait, such as peanut butter, to the back wall of the trap away from the metal plates using a Q-tip or other tool to avoid transferring your scent.
Insert Batteries - Remove the battery cover. Insert 4 “D” batteries into the battery compartment before replacing the cover.
Place the Trap - Place the trap on a flat surface against a wall where you have seen signs of rodent activity. The trap should be placed lengthwise with the entrance nearest to the wall.
Turn On - Activate by flipping the switch to the “ON” position. A green light will blink once to indicate the trap is functioning properly.

We have used these Rat Zappers for many years. Nothing lasts forever so we buy more when they die which they do like everything else. It seems the older ones were better made then the new ones, they lasted longer. I will continue to buy and use these because they work.
Thank you for sharing this feedback. We're sorry to hear that this is happening with your trap. If the metal plates of the trap are dirty, it may need to be cleaned. Our traps have a one year replacement policy. Reach out to us via the Contact Us page with any questions.

The traps don't last.

The traps don't last. I've had probably a dozen of them - a mix of models. I keep buying them because I'm afraid of the snap traps and they are effective - if only for a short while. I've had the same problem with every one I've bought. They last varying amounts of time but are very effective when first purchased.
This thing was impressive except for the low battery life issue.

This thing was impressive. It killed 9 rats in a row! But then I began getting the low battery signal (fast red light flashing). These were new Duracell batteries.
It does what it is designed to do, kill rats. Only problem is that the batteries did not last for the stated 60 kills.
Works very well for a while. This is my second one and it lasted 1 1/2 years. The last mouse it just kept buzzing and you could see a blue arc from the plate to the mouse tail. Went on for a long time as we could not figure out where the buzzing was coming from.
Eventually figured it out and turned the Zapper off. Cleaned it out and reset but after that the bait was gone and no new kills. Tried the screw driver test but no arc so its dead. Even bought new batteries and no joy. For almost $100 it should last for ever. I'm going back to snap traps.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We're sorry to hear about this experience with your trap and have shared your comments with the Product Manager for further review.

Easy way to catch and dispose of mice - even for the squeamish.
These traps are amazing. For some reason this year the mice were awful. These traps kill quick and are easy to use. The trick to long life on these traps is you must keep them clean.
I love these rat zappers because all I have to do is either plug it in or put batteries in it. It caught everything I even had one up in my attic and I caught flying squirrels if you can believe that. I need to buy a couple more because I just heard some rats under my house chewing and playing am I afraid of those noises Yes I am but as soon as I get that rats zapper I feel very safe that that rat zapper will kill anything. I have one in my laundry room on all the time and I just caught a mouse. So I’m confident that when I plug this in it’s going to kill whatever is chewing underneath my crawlspace. Thank you RAT ZAPPER!!!
I've used these Rat-Zapper electronic traps multiple times over many years. They are clean and efficient. Three traps in three locations yielded over a dozen mice in just a few days! Over the years I've dispatched mice, rats, squirrels and other nuisance critters. They are battery hogs, but when you have fresh batteries, they work great.
