This trap is inhumane!.

This trap is inhumane!. I caught the mouse with the trap but the poor thing didn't die until after I released it! Do you understand how extremely scarring that is to a person when I purchased your traps thinking it would be quick and they wouldn't see it coming. No now my son and I are traumatized from seeing this poor thing squirm and flopping around it's head squished fighting for life only to open the trap and then it die. Very hard to see and I can't imagine the pain the mouse felt.

Caught mouse but didn't kill. Inhumane.

I bought this product thinking it was a great idea. However, it is a terrible product. I set them on Monday and finaly caught the mouse on early Thursday morning. I woke up at 2:30am to a crashing commotion in my kitchen. I couldn't find a direct cause so I looked through the house. I then waited where I heard the noise the first time. When I heard it again I was able to find that the trap had caught a mouse. The mouse was still alive and thrashing around under my stove. I had placed the trap 3 feet away around a corner. The mouse was able to drag it under the stove. I waited a bit to see if it would die. After 5 minutes of me waiting, around 15 minutes after the first noise, I decided to move the stove and get it out. I took it to the end of my property, swung the trap, opening as I did so. The mouse landed a ways away. It picked itself up and ran away.

We’re sorry to hear about your experience with the Victor® Safe Set™ Mouse Trap. For best results, place the trap along a wall or in an area where mouse activity has been observed, with the trigger end facing the wall. Using multiple traps can also help increase the chances of catching mice and reduce the distance they may travel with a trap. We recommend checking traps frequently after setting them and following the product instructions for proper placement and handling. We appreciate you sharing your experience and hope these tips help with future use.

I bought a two pack and set one up months ago and didn’t ever catch anything, though it had been triggered. I finally found their hole so I set the other up outside of it and within an hour I caught one. It cried and struggled for about 2 minutes. I think I’ll stick with a regular snap trap next time but it did kill the mouse.

Inhumane and cruel trap

Very quickly caught a mouse...partially. The poor thing was struggling to free itself. Exactly what I didn't want. These traps are inhumane. Just awful.

I have caught mice in these traps and they work not as good as the Victor power kill but they have there place in your trap door. Pets can’t get in them either so you can set them in places that you normally wouldn’t.

I placed two of these traps in my attic where I have documented mouse activity thanks to a camera I put up there. I was sorely disappointed to wake up this morning to discover a mouse eating the peanut butter bait without activating the trigger. The mouse returned all night long, countless times, eating the bait without consequence. FINALLY, and unfortunately for me- the trigger snapped as I watched on the camera live at about 5:30 am. It was NOT an instant kill, and the little guy thrashed in the trap for a full 30 seconds before going still. This is NOT a sensitive trap considering the mouse ate the bait repeatedly before finally being killed and NOT humanely.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and for the detailed feedback. Based on what you described, it sounds like the trap may have been baited with too much peanut butter. When a larger amount of bait is placed on the trigger, a mouse can sometimes eat the bait from the edges without needing to apply enough pressure to the trigger plate to activate the trap. This can allow them to return multiple times and feed without setting it off. For best results, we recommend using only a very small amount of bait (about the size of a pea) and pressing it firmly into the bait cup or trigger area. This encourages the mouse to push or tug directly on the trigger in order to access the bait, which helps ensure the trap activates properly. Regarding the trap activation you observed, snap traps are designed to trigger quickly when the mouse interacts with the trigger. Using a smaller, well-secured amount of bait typically helps ensure the trap fires sooner and more consistently. We appreciate your feedback, as it helps us improve guidance for other customers.

Not sure why people are leaving poor reviews, these traps are awesome! So far 100% kill rate. Maybe people just don't understand how they work.

These traps do not work.

These traps do not work. I thought they weren’t snapping because the mice were babies, but I tested it with a stick and it still wouldn’t snap. Very disappointed.

I have two of this style trap and they work great…. Easy to bait and set and there is another brand that makes this style too, but in my opinion they are junk!
