Human Catch-and-Release Device
I've owned 2 of these traps for quite a while. They never fail to catch the mice, which are then released outside, unharmed. For people with a decent respect for nature, the drive to a release spot is no burden.

Another reviewer said "For easy disposal of vermin, I recommend flat glue mats placed inside trap."--THIS IS CRUEL AND LAZY. Better to buy an instant-kill trap than to put these small animals through AGONY.

They is a great joy in the release of a mouse where mice belong, and knowing you did no harm. With the use of this catch-and-release trap, you can remain a kind person.

At this writing Amazon said the product was no longer available. A Google search on pro-ketch will return many sources for this humane product.

help?
bought a trap like this. Mine seems to have a springy walking plank which the mice are supposed to walk up, then the weight lowers the little plank and the mice go into the "waiting area". It seems the plank would take a heavy mouse to get enough weight to get the mouse in further. There are little front doors on mine which aren't speing loaded an therefor stay open.. Are these traps better? I have a Ketch-all too and caught 13 outside mice in it within 3 days. Today was my 1st mouse injury.

Does not work!
I have had this product set up for over 2 weeks now with absolutely no success. I have tried many different baits (chocolate, peanut butter etc). I followed all of the setup instructions to the letter, and the mice just walk right by it! Not worth the money!

Crude but effective
If you have decent welding skills, you might be able to make this trap yourself. However those without welding skills or time would benefit from this trap. There's nothing technologically advanced about this trap, it just uses a sturdy steel frame and a very strong spring. The spring is just much stronger than your ordinary grocery store rat trap.

You should be cautious when setting this trap, as the spring should be strong enough to break a finger if you accidentally release it on yourself. Be careful if you have pets or neighbors have pets. Wear gloves as much as possible. I used chopsticks to lay the bait on the trap plate. Make sure you use the attached chain to use a stake (not included) to hold the trap in place. There is also a metal washer attached to the frame that you can use to screw the trap onto to something.

serious business with this trap
This trap is no comparison to the ordinary wooden or plastic rat traps.
With the latter ones rats escape far too often. This one has a very strong spring.
I have put a little plastic cap, created a cup, from a cosmetics product onto the bait stalk so I can stuff it with cheese. Therefore rat has to put some effort to eat the bait. The trap does require a rat to step on it pretty hard to set it off.
I have caught two rats in a two weeks period of time. I use WD 40 to lubricate it, because it will rust. I use it outside. Also, I put bricks on the three sides of the trap so a rat can only access it from the front.

Good trap
I agree with the only other reviewer, this is a good trap, and as already said, it is very powerful. So just how do you get the thing set without breaking a finger (already said): I put the thing in a vise, made a pull back out of old cloths hanger (what would we do without them) and was able to set the thing without a chance of hurting myself, which is a good thing.

Beware of the Annoying Clicks and Chirps!
The product manual says the light indicator BLINKS to indicate the product is working, however it BLINKS and CLICKS every minute. Just imagine having four repellers chirping like birds every minute in every room of your house. It's a total nightmare. Is this product suppose to repell bugs or the humans who purchase it? I'm returning this junk back to the store first thing tomorrow and purchasing a set of pest repellers I saw at Home Depot. Hopefully, I'll have better luck with them.

Ideal mouse trap
This mousetrap is the easiest trap to use I have found. I had no success with the standard wooden traps, the "humane" traps that simply catch them to be released, or the glue traps; however, once I had this one set, I had my mice in a day.

This trap is a little more heavy-duty than the standard traps. It's all plastic and metal (no wood). There is also virtually no chance of setting the trap off on yourself while you attempt to bait it for the mice.

To set it, you place the bait/food on the plastic tray towards the back of the trap and lower the hood over the food. After you lower the hood, simply pick up the metal spring-loaded snap and put it in the ready position and you are good to go! The hood covering the food has a hole in the front which allows the rodents to smell what's inside. The hood is also the mechanism that sets off the trap, so once the rodent attempts to lift the hood to get to the food, it snaps and you've caught your rodent! It doesn't get much easier than this. An ideal trap.

Greatest trap EVER!!!
Living in the Country, near a woods and a field, we have our share of mice
around at certain times of the year. I've tried them all, and this IS SIMPLY THE BEST! Don't know what those other reviewers that didn't like the trap did wrong, but this is great. In 2 days caught 2 mice, DEAD!
No blood, just DEAD! A mouse outdoors is just fine, but if God had wanted that mouse to live, he wouldn't have let him come into my home. Food is in tray, mouse has to lift tray lid to get to food (has small opening to sniff and just the right size for mouse nose to poke into), then WHAMO!
No more mousie! I've had some success with Sticky traps, (RAT size only), but the rodent can drag the trap a long way from where you placed it before he dies. With this Trap, the mouse must die instantly, as both my traps were in precisely where I placed them even after catching creature. AND, They are easy to empty and re-use, making this price a very good buy!! Instead of "Victor" traps, they should be called "VICTORY"!!!!!!

Does its job well.
A few years ago when I started seeing holes in my cereal boxes and mouse droppings in my kitchen I put out the standard wooden traps but none of them worked. The mouse was either too small or too quick and he would always set them off but get away. I purchased this trap (for much more than amazon sells it for) and caught the mouse on the first try.

I have had to use it a few times since then and it has caught a mouse every time. This is a great product that does exactly what I needed it to do. 2 for this price is an excellent buy.

Product Reviews

So much safer to set - so 2* - but for the rats too!
I would love to give this trap a 5* rating because setting it is soooo much safer than the Victor brand traditional traps. The design looks and feels like "a better rat trap" but has the one drawback that I get a lot more sprung traps without any victim than I do with the Victor traps. By the way I have no affiliation with Victor at all. I just like to kill rats. Talking of Victor, they make two types (that I know of) - a traditional one with a small metal bait holder, which scares the Sh*t out of me when I set them, but is as good as it gets w.r.t. dead vermin. They newer and safer ones have a large yellow paddle which is easier to set (nothing like as easy as the Big Snap-E trap though) and are still effective. The older type still has the 'hairier' trigger though...

Bait - I've used dried apricots, peanut butter and gummiworms all to good effect. I'm told fruit gums work well, but my local store only had worms. Didn't make much difference to the momentarily happy rat I caught last week. ;-) Cheese is quite poor.

I also had one of the Big-E traps break - in the 'trip' mechanism. I have to confess I didn't bother to find out how their customer service is - it's a $5 trap after all - but it's a shame it broke.

'Hope you kill lots of rats.

Doesn't work for larger rats
Sure the trap is easy and safe to setup but what good is that when it doesn't catch anything! Had it for over 6 months now and the two traps have yet to catch a rat. I often found the traps had snapped but no victims, and the baits are gone. Reverting back to using the Victor traps again.

By Far the Best
I've tried many rodent traps over the years but my success rate for a humane way to kill small rodents is near 100% with the Snap-E rat and mouse traps. It's rare that the trap is triggered and the rodent gets away and also rare the trap catches just a part of the body causing the animal to suffer. They're inexpensive, easy to set and I've never had one break. I use peanut butter as bait for rats and chipmunks and also for mice using the smaller traps.

From the Manufacturer
Easy to set by hand or foot. Patented interlocking teeth. Removable bait cup allows trap to be service without being set. Motomco's mechanical traps are ideal for capturing the occasional "intruder" or as part of a more extensive control program. Traps are easy to use and work well along walls, in corners or wherever rodents travel. TOMCAT reusable rat and mouse traps set in one easy motion and are safer to use the conventional snap traps.

This Thing REALLY Does The Job Fast! And They Don't Get Away!
This is THE best rat trap I've ever used! I don't have to worry about smashing my fingers by accident while trying to get it into position; to set this one you just step on the back of it (or you can squeeze it with your hand). I don't set it off by accident as I'm trying to maneuver it into position; this one isn't on a hair trigger like the old fashion kind. Meerly jostling it won't set it off. The rat can only approach from the desired side so there is no chance of him being tossed away from the trap as can happen with the old fashion kind. Best of all, there is virtually NO WAY for a rat to get to the bait without setting this thing off - every time! That's because the bait is positioned such that he must press the lever to get to it. It's also positioned such that they never get "kinda" caught. Lastly, those "teeth" pretty much insure that he's not going anywhere.

With the regular trap I had more sprung traps that caught rats. With this trap I got one within the 1st hour of setting it out, over and over and over again! It works!

Ideal for those who enjoy torturing small creatures
Look, I dislike rats as much as anyone, and I'm well aware of the finger-breaking potential of the traditional rat trap. So I had high hopes when I placed the Snap Trap, baited with peanut butter, in my attic. A few days later, in the middle of the night, I heard a commotion in the attic that sounded like a squeaking monkey banging on a cooking pot. This went on for several hours before I dragged my sorry @#! out of bed, climbed a ladder, and found a rat, its head completely enclosed in the trap, squeaking pitifully and trying to escape.

Recall that an ordinary trap works by snapping the rat's neck. The rat dies instantly. This device, on the other hand, merely grabs the rat's head with the force of a small binder clip. The rat then suffocates, if it's lucky, or starves. Either way, it's a slow, slow death. This inadequate force, by the way, is also why the snap trap is safer for humans. In the end, I had to kill the rat myself. Wasn't that the trap's job?

So, if you enjoy hearing tortured animals slowly suffocate or starve in your attic (for hours, or possibly even days), then you should certainly purchase this product. Otherwise, look elsewhere.

Tom Cat traps SUCK!!
Every Tomcat product I have bought either did not work or was defective!! I guess they don't have good quality control or they are just content on selling garbage to unsuspecting consumers. The Snap Traps I bought for mice did not work at all, they got the food and the traps were never tripped. I just recently bought their traditional rat traps - two of them in the pack were installed backwards - the spring bar was loaded to the opposite end of the bate plate. I had to remove the spring bar and reinstall it the other way around to work properly. Total garbage - I have never experienced this with other manufactures. I even tried out the live catch boxes and they were not designed well either - the mouse was able to eat the bait and get back through the trap door. Seems to be that they are purposely making these products as cheap as possible, betting on the fact that once you take it home, you won't bother to bring it back for a refund and just throw their garbage product in the trash like I did. Don't waste your time.

Product Reviews

It seems to be working great!
We've been using a product like this for the last 8 years or so. When it died, I was afraid I wouldn't be able to find a suitable replacement. Some of the other ones we've tried actually make a clicking sound that freak out our cats. This one seems to be working great. We haven't used any bug control chemicals/devices/etc for the ten years we've lived here and we still don't have to! We see a random small spider here or there once in a great while, but nothing that tells us it isn't working. Our cats don't mind it at all. Interestingly, a while back our town had a moth worm (?)infestation and they were crawling all over everyone's exterior walls. We didn't have any on our house. That showed me these products do work (when they work with the wiring of the house). We love it! And it's one less toxin in our environment. Just remember if you have a larger house that you'll need more than one.

Still loving it and still no pesticides needed!

This product really works!
I have owned this product for nearly three weeks now and I love it simply because it really works! I have yet to spot a single spider or mice. The main reason that I bought this unit was to repel rodents away from my car. I just spent $4500.00 on my car to replace the engine wires and the main computer that was fried due to the rodents chewing on engine wires! This unit is really fantastic, I no longer see rat/mice trails any where near my house. There is only one thing that I 'm trying to find out and that is, why some of my guests can actually hear the unit? Not that this bothers me at all but I though humans were not supposed to hear the low frequency that this unit generates.

Plenty of Features, Poor Primary Performance
I purchased this product, about 2 weeks ago, in the hopes that this type of pest repeller had improved since the last one I attempted 5 years ago. This item has a thoughtful design, including a pass-thru plug (2 prong) and nightlight, and the innovative addition of an air ionizer that made placing this in a bathroom or closet a multi-purpose solution.

When I first plugged the unit into my downstairs bathroom outlet, my 2 cats 30 feet away in the living room started to growl and ran upstairs. My child came downstairs shortly afterward complaining about the painful warbling sound coming from downstairs. Apparently the ultrasonic frequency is outside of adult hearing, but adoloscent ears have a hammer and anvil response range beyond that of adults (until they're done growing, and the body loses flexibility, such as when the bones start to harden). I further tested the unit in the garage and an upstairs closet, but found the results were the same for both cats and family.

I am unsure of how pests respond to this unit, but it definitely repelled my cats and child, forcing me to discontinued use of the product.

Victor® Mini PestChaser® Ultrasonic Rodent Repellent 3-Pack

Price: $21.97
Manufacturer: Victor


Why deal with having to dispose of dead mice caught in ordinary traps? This keeps the mice from wanting to stay in your nice food-filled home! The Victor® Mini PestChaser® emits high frequency sound waves that effectively repel rodents from protected areas. For use in average-sized rooms, kitchens, garages, attics and basements. The sound is completely inaudible to people and non-rodent pets. Varying intensity and frequencies of ultrasonic sound waves prevents rodents from getting used to the Victor® Mini PestChaser®. Since the sound is inaudible, a red LED light tells you the unit is working properly. It's kinder than traps, safer than poisons, and there are no dead rodents to dispose of so it minimizes human contact with mice, rats, and other disease-bearing rodents. Reduction in rodent activity should occur within 6-10 days. Estimated service life of the unit is 5-7 years or more. Note: Ultrasonic sound cannot penetrate furniture, cabinets or walls. Multiple units required for multiple rooms.

Works great with multiple units in large studio
We had a nightmare of a mouse problem that sprung up seemingly overnite. We tried all kinds of traps and the mice could not be tricked. We finally decided to try these things, although I thought they seemed like a total crock. Well, we placed 4 of them throughout our 700 square foot studio apartment and that night we heard some intense chewing - we had just filled all of the holes in our walls and so I assume it was a mouse trying to chew its way out - and ever since that night we have had no more mouse problems. It's been months now and we haven't seen a single sign of a mouse. Amazing.

No mice chaser
I had the product for about two weeks in my 600 sqt ft apartment and it as a precaution and it just so happened that as i watched tv one night i saw a couple of mice run right pass the product, so I AM NOT PLEASED!

Victor Sonic Pest Chaser
At first i didnt know if it would work. after two days i still heard the mice
but after that i didnt hear them and its been two months and i have heard no
mice or saw any sign of them. i would tell anyone to get this and stand by it.

Product Reviews

Cheap piece of ....
I actually bought a slightly different model of this product that ... doesn't sell, the X-Contro by Lentek. It's the same thing but without the flashing light. I bought it because we were having problems with rats and racoons in our yard (rats eating from our bird feeders and racoons just tearing the yard up).

I was attraced to the Lentek products because of the 900Mhz motion detector that would set it off if anything moved within a 15' radius. What I found out was that the rats were too small to set it off, so unless I was willing to run a cord out to it so it could run in continuous mode, the rats were safe.

Luckily (I guess), within 2 weeks of setting it up, the motion detector had essentially stopped working and it was going off every 15-20 seconds whether there was any motion or not. That actually helped with the rats and I was a bit thankful for the defect.

However, the advantage of having the device activate every few seconds was mitigated by the noise that it made. New out of the box, the device makes a very pronounced clicking whenever the speakers turn on or off. It's audible enough that when it was setup outside and I had the windows open I could hear it on the other side of my house. Although annoying, that was acceptable to me.

But as time went on, the device became more and more audible, letting out fairly loud, gargled squeaks and chirps from time to time. It seemed to be most pronounced when the device would get wet (it claims to be weatherproof). Finally, today, it has gotten to the point where it is completely audible (and loud)regardless of the frequency range I set the device to. So, I have had to take it down -- since I live in a somewhat compact neighborhood, having that kind of noise blasting out every 20 seconds is a sure way to get death threats from the neighbors.

The most annoying part of this is that, in the end, it never seemed to deter the racoons, who continue to tear up my yard with abandon. Also, as another testament as to how cheaply this thing seemed to be constructed, there is a glued-on piece of paper that sits around the device's controls and provides captions for each. Within 3 days of putting this outside, that paper had curled up and pulled off the device because of the heat (90 F, but it was in a completely shaded area).

Pure Junk, buy the Weitech instead.
I have been sucessfully using the Weitech Yard protector continuously for two years. But I keep the frequency set for cats only. Any other frequency may irritate the neighborhood dogs.
Unfortunately, a band of racoons recently began to terrorize my pond at night. So I decided to add a second motion sensitive pest repeller. I had hoped the Lentek yard control would compliment the Weitech. BUT, the Lentek is a piece of junk right out of the box. The motion sensor immediately activates and never turns off. It would not be so bad if the strobe light was not constantly flashing. I plan on trashing the Lentek and buying another Weitech.

BAD SERVICE
After few hours the strobe light quit working. We sent Yard Contro back to Lentex Dec 2002. We have tried at least 20 times to find out what is going on we have been told we sent you a new unit 3 times and never received it. We were told we will send your money back twice. We have been told they are out of stock. Now their phone service is not working. Save your money and alot of frustration and buy something else. 7/22/03 still have not received a new unit or our money back. We are still calling as of this date. We call aleast once a week. Their phone service is out of order.

Product Reviews

From the Manufacturer
Accommodates mice and rats. Keeps rodent control measures out of view. Tamper-resistant bait stations hold bait chunks securely in the station, away from livestock, pets, children and non-target animals. Stations also protect bait from dust, dirt, moisture and other contaminants, so bait stays fresh longer. Placed along walls and other rodent runways, bait stations provide an environment where rodents feel secure while feeding on bait. Use them also to monitor rodent activity to determine the severity of the infestation. Can be used indoors and out. 8.5" x 10" x 4.5".

Great product! VERY safe and secure from kids/pets!
This bait station is great. It is locked and can only be opened with a key that comes with it. We have young children and 3 dogs so it needed to be secure to keep them all safe. It is! I highly recommend this product!
