Bought two from Amazon and they stopped working only after a few months. One trap caught one rat, the other didn't catch any. Too much money to waste on something that shorts out or stops working shortly after purchase.
Don’t stop making these!

Don’t stop making these! Incredible traps. My father used these and now I use them. You’ll get on every night. WEAR GLOVES, in trapping ALWAYS wear gloves. Never allow human scent to touch the trap. 10/10 ????????

Returned my patio furniture to get 4 of these. Not worth it. Not one freaking rat. Extensive video of rats just going in having lunch and leaving. This is bullshit

Have used the Victor Rat Zapper for many years with great success. We skip the peanut butter and use one walnut inside at the very inside grated end, works every time with less cleanup. The rats and mice can't resist walnuts. We use the cheap batteries, they seem to last just as well. Do clean inside after each catch cause the rats can smell the last catch. Remove batteries and clean with a couple drops of dish soap and water. ONLY clean the inside bottom and air dry bottom side up. This keeps water from entering the electronic parts. Placing against walls seems to work better. The older all metal traps worked better than the new plastic/metal ones, despite this we still recommend them. Buy online when on sale and use your points.

The mice eat the peanut butter and walk out. Brand new unit. Just received yesterday. There’s no way to test it. A waste of $50 we don’t have. Thanks, Victor, for making this low quality product.

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.

When I first got it the device killed 3 rats but after that rats ate the bait and left. No other kills. At this time I would not advise it.

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.
