    Not much luck with Glue Boards

    By Regina on 05/26/2009

    I've only caught two mice with these and I've put out 25. The mice are pooping on them, so I know they are walking around them. I noticed that they're putting bits of paper in one of the little boxes as if they are making a nest. I just wonder if the glue is sticky enough.

    Expert Response  Expert response:
    If the boards are placed in a dusty area, the dust may make the board ineffective and the glue not as sticky. Placement is also important. Try placing glue boards about 8 feet apart (don't place too many in the same area), and along a wall or baseboard so that a mouse running along a wall will eventually run right over the board. Finally, while these boards can be folded up into boxes, we recommend using them just laying flat. The box setup works well for catching insects and protecting the glue from dust, while a flat glue board allows mice to more easily run over the board. We appreciate your feedback. Good luck!

    Got better results than with other products

    By Elliot on 05/05/2008

    I have better results with Catchmaster glue boards than with other glue boards. It seems to me that they are stickier, and I suspect they don't have an odor which repels the mice.

    Great

    By Robert on 03/13/2011

    We have the very poisonous Southern California Desert Brown Spider here. We use a dozen of these spread around the house. They trap LOTS of these spiders & various other insects. We change them out every few months or if the glue gets too much dust or too many dead insects. Silverfish, roaches, water bugs, fleas, mites, mosquitoes, & other insects we do not recognize are trapped in these things all the time and we do not have any pets or animals here. The price is wonderful. These also have the (very slight) peanut butter smell in the glue which catches roaches & mice like crazy. We buy these all the time now. We have tried the other styles from here, but like this one the best so far.

    Catchmaster Mouse/Insect Glue Boards - CASE 72 boards

    By Gary on 10/19/2010

    I like to use them as a flat board and they are very easy to use. The mice like the kitchen because that's where the food is. Mice come out at night so I would put the glue board up against the base boards trim in the kitchen. I would even cut the edge off the board so the clue is right next to the wall. I also found a small hole inside one of the cabinets so I cut off the corner of the glue board. These are the best product I have used---and I have been to all the home centers. Thanks

    They are not working

    By Catalina on 05/04/2010

    I had high expectations but unfortunately..failure. I bought these cause my place of employment was using them for their rodent problem. Well, after one month, neither at my home nor at my workplace, has anyone of these traps caught anything other than dust bunnies and insects. My husband actually saw a mouse scoot through one of these traps without even a whisker getting stuck. They have been ineffective in our battle to get rid of our mice.

    Expert Response  Expert response:
    It is important to keep these glue boards from getting dusty and full of insects.  If the purpose of these boards is to catch mice, you should fold the glueboards so they do not get dusty.  If a layer of dust gets on the surface of the glue, they will not be sticky enough to trap a mouse.  Also, if the glueboard is catching a lot of insects, then it will deter a mouse from gettting on the glueboard.  You can also try a bait in the middle of the glueboard, like some sunflower seeds or a small scoop of chocolate gnutella to entice a rodent on the board.  This customer was probably not getting the results they were expecting because they did not switch to newer glueboards after they became dusty and full of insects.

    Great for spiders!

    By Patti on 08/01/2009

    I purchased several of these Catchmaster Glue Boards, putting them in closets, under beds, and other dark areas. After checking them, I saw several spiders that they had trapped. The brown recluse is a particularly dangerous spider, and I did notice a couple of them on these traps! They definitely did their job!

    Best yet!

    By Harry on 06/02/2010

    Used different products over the years. Recently tried the new gimmick trap that looked pretty ingenious, but got no results. Catchmaster got my nuisance mouse the first night. They also worked great getting rid of some ants that seem to make their appearance this time of year. I knew there was another mouse and finally got that one last night in the same spot as the first. No bait, use flat or enclosed. Great item, great value, wouldn't use anything else.

    Glue Boards Are Safe

    By Foster on 08/05/2010

    With neurological problems and pets (bird & 3 dogs) I do not want insecticides in my home. Placed along baseboards in remote areas, glue boards have been a safe and effective method to eliminate recluse spiders and scorpions in our home.

    Really like them

    By Patrice on 12/05/2006

    I really like the boxed Catchmaster glue traps because I can put a few on the shelves behind things and don't have to worry about getting stuck on a trap when taking out food from the pantry.

    Work pretty good

    By Mark on 09/22/2010

    Verified Purchase

    I live in the woods, so I get a lot of critters in my house. I have the glue boards in my garage which is where the critters enter the house. They have caught little snakes, insects, and mice. The reason I gave 4 stars is because I have had a couple mice got by the glue board. In at least one occasion the mouse was in the glue when I throw the board outside. Later I went to pick up the glue board and the mouse was gone.

    Doesn't trap large roaches

    By Overroached on 04/28/2012

    Verified Purchase

    I live in Phoenix and have roaches about an inch long, maybe a bit bigger. This never catches them. I saw one get trapped one night, so decided to leave it and see what happened. By morning, it had worked itself free.

    This is a great way to get rid of the critters. I am catching them left and right. You know if you see one, you have a whole army. They are really stuck and cannot get off. Good bye mice!! Cannot beat this price. This is easy to put around the house and easy to discard. My order was processed with record speed, and shipped immediately. I would highly recommend this product.

    Unbeatable product and service!

    By Jack on 07/09/2015

    I've been using this product for years because, you just can't beat the price and quality! These boards catch anywhere from 1 mouse to 100 insects depending on their size. They also remain effective for several months up to a year as long as they aren't in a dusty area! What amazed me was the delivery time. I literally ordered a case of boards on a Saturday morning and at noon on Monday, it was delivered to my door and the shipping was free!

    Unexpected Benefits

    By Martha on 09/16/2011

    I bought these glue boards, upon my neighbor's recommendation, to catch the crickets that start making their way into my house in late summer. The boards certainly work well for that, but these provided me with another service. The first night I had one of these out in the kitchen I caught a mouse. Eek! I had no idea mice had been getting into my house. Over the next few nights I not only caught crickets galore, but three more mice. I was very grateful to gain this information. I called an exterminator and he found the place they were likely getting into the house and filled it with foam, and I trust that will be the end of that.

    not sticky enough

    By Jill on 08/07/2012

    These glue boards don't detain mice. They visit, eat any bait put on them, poop, and walk away.

    These are excellent pest control!!

    By Marty on 10/02/2014

    Since we moved to the country, our small barn and old house have been inundated with crickets during late summer and fall--until we found Catchmaster insect glue boards. They have proved to be a great, not-toxic solution to our cricket problem at a very reasonable cost. We now have no more damage, dirt, or disturbance from crickets. We simply replace the glue boards as they get full and appreciate having a case of 72 so we never worry about running out!!

    good for bugs not mice.

    By Gary-g on 11/03/2012

    An exterminator left several of these out and they have been good at catching insects but not so good at catching mice though 3 mice were caught in them over a 6 wk period. LTD traps are much better for mice control.

    The peanut butter scent smells great to mice and people alike. And they catch mice very well. I recommend these to anyone with mouse problems (not strong enough for rats) or doing pest control on their own.

    Catching Hobos

    By Katie on 08/20/2013

    Verified Purchase

    I bought these glue boards for the hobo spiders in our basement/garage. In the past few weeks, the 12 boards I put out have caught about 10 hobos and lots of other little bugs. Some hobos only got a few legs in, but it held them tight. I'm a believer. By the way, we had Terminix treat our house in Texas for the past 3 years (we just moved) and this is what they put in our garage.
