Where & When to Use
Where to Use: Place traps against walls where mice travel. Mice tend to run along edges and baseboards rather than open floor space.
Where Not to Use: Wooden traps can warp or swell in areas with high moisture, which may affect the trigger mechanism—best suited for dry, indoor placement.
When to Apply: As soon as you see signs of a mouse, it’s time to set traps. Don’t wait for your rodent problem to get bigger.
How Often to Apply: Check traps daily and dispose of any catch promptly to avoid odor and keep traps ready for reuse.
How To Use
- BAIT: Bait the trigger with Tomcat Attractant Gel (sold separately) or peanut butter.
- SET: Pull the U-shaped bar to the opposite end and insert the tip of the pin into the hole opposite the trigger setting.
- ADJUST: Move the pin inward, towards the “S”, for a more sensitive trigger, or outward for a less sensitive one.
- PLACE: Place the trap perpendicular against walls where mice travel.
Product Tips
- Adjust the trigger sensitivity to match the activity you're seeing. A more sensitive setting can help with cautious mice, while a firmer setting reduces false triggers in high-traffic areas.
- Use a small, pea-sized amount of bait; too much can let a mouse feed without triggering the trap.
- Wooden snap traps are traditionally designed to be reused; inspect the wood and trigger mechanism between catches and replace a trap if it's no longer working properly.
Product Safety
- As with any spring-loaded snap trap, keep fingers clear of the trigger bar while setting it, and set the trap on a flat, stable surface.
- Keep this and other snap traps out of reach of kids and pets.

Effective
I really like these type of mouse traps because they are the old traditional kind that you'll know you're gonna catch something. It can be a little messy but I like to put the trap inside a paper bag and just throw the whole bag away.

Work as expected
Classic design mouse traps. Easy to set. Work exactly as expected. I used these in our tool shed where we occasionally have rodent issues. I have used several different styles of traps in the past and these are inexpensive, dependable traps. Good purchase.

Better then others we have used in the past
The enhanced gauge of the metal trip wire leading to the bait receptacle, coupled with the unit's robust construction, surpasses that of competing brands. The perforated plastic bait holder is also a noteworthy feature. We successfully captured a mouse on the second night of use.
