Product works and I can release back into the wild
Mar 28, 2023
We had an infestation of mice in our garage killed over a dozen with snap traps, did not like killing especially when a couple of them got caught and did not die right away. So we decided to purchase three Tin cats caught two mice in less than three hours in one trap, we live in the woods and I took them about a mile away so far no more mice.
Have not seen any yet

So far have not got any mouse or rat. Either they are smart or I got rid of some of them with the glue pads (got three)
Tin Cat Traps are a Useless Disappointment
Oct 12, 2022
I bought 6 in Cat traps. I wore gloves when I opened each trap and then washed the trap with rubbing alcohol, and let the trap air dry. I have not caught even one mouse with these traps and I am very disappointed because they cost me $100. I gave up after 7 days and bought some Victor Easy Set Traps and caught mice right away. I hav left the Tin Cat traps and still have not caught one mouse while the Easy Set Traps do catch mice. Now I am stuck with 6 useless Tin Cat traps

We're sorry to hear you haven't seen the success that's typical of this trap. With live traps it is important to check the traps frequently as mice will go to great lengths to escape. For assistance with these traps, please contact us at 855-584-2867, we're happy to help.

These catch mice like crazy ! OMG the mice are very eager to go into the trap.. I put a smear of peanut butter and a few kibbles of cat food as bait.
Be sure to release the mice as soon as possible as they have no water or food...they will die soon if you don't !!!
I wish mice weren't so darn cute !
I totally recommend these traps.
amazingly good

Catches ALOT of mice....I'm amazed how well they work.
Set on paper...the small holes on the bottom of trap could allow mouse pee to leak thru .
Doesn't work.

This hasn't worked at all. Not one mouse. And there are feces all around the trap, just to taunt me. I've baited it with peanut butter, both inside and a little on the upper part of the ramp to hopefully lure them in. I know they like PB because I've left it out for them in the past (without a trap) and they've eaten it. I've tried the trap in two of the places where I know they like to hang out (because I've seen them there), and not one mouse. Not even a little one. And there are plenty here. So. Not happy at all with this. Just relieved it wasn't terribly expensive or I'd be really upset.
The perfect solution

This trap could not have worked any better for my issue. I had about 7 mice living in my basement. This trap along with some cheese, allowed me to catch and release them all without harm. The trap worked daily until they were all relocated. One thing is to make sure you check / empty it every 12 hours so not to cause the animals stress. One little guy had rubbed a raw spot on his nose trying to get out. Overall this device is perfect. Thank you.

If we let them loose, won't they just come right back in!!? My dad used to catch squirrels and bring them several miles away to release. Lol...
Waste of money

The mouse we were trying to catch easily exited from the tin cat. Finally caught it with a small Hav-a-Heart trap.

I load the trap with a chunk of TomCat poison and add some Peanut Butter or some bird seed as bait and it works. Once they chew on the poison, they die quickly! I caught a salamander too!
