Customer Reviews for Victor Tin Cat Mouse Trap M308

We bought two of these a few years back before they had the see-thru windows, and they've been great... we put dry corn in them, which our mice apparently love. We can set them out & leave them for days at a time without checking, and when we come back, sometimes we've had as many as eight mice in a single trap! There's no point in relocating mice, they'll just find their way back and you'll have to keep relocating them over & over again, or else you'll have to keep relocating their kids & grandkids, etc. Best way to handle 'em is to drop the whole trap in a bucket of water, come back 15 min later & empty it into the trash. Mice are NOT "cute"... they carry disease and do millions of $$$ of property damage yearly, duh.

This Victor Tin Cat mouse trap really works great! I've been having mouse problems on and off and tried the single live trap; which worked fine in the beginning. Had to try other methods that I will never do again. I like to relocate them not kill them. Searched on the Internet and found this trap.  A couple of nights and I caught two mice. I've had it two weeks and caught and released 7 mice. For me giving them another chance is the way to go! Thank you this is a great product that has no mechanism that the mouse can trap himself into. I think this one is the easiest and best trap so far!

Had a terrible mouse problem in my chicken house. I could not use chemicals, hate setting traps...you did build a better mousetrap.  Victor Tin Cat Mouse Trap caught 25 in 24 hours.

I ordered two Victor Tin Cat Mouse Trap live traps to get a family of field mice out of my garage! They worked quite well. The mice are gone - within a week I got all four of them. I sealed up a hole they were getting in - no evidence of any more. I liked that the traps gave me a "live catch" option.

I have been trying to catch 2 mice in the house since November. I tried a lot of things.  I got the Victor Tin Cat Mouse Trap.  In 3 days it caught the little varmints, THANK YOU so much. My cats had a good meal. Now for the mice out back. Now for the rats in the out building.

My Mouse Trap arrived and I set it up with some seeds and peanut butter. Within an hour the little cute field mouse arrived. Ate the peanut butter and seed and just looked at me, seemed mad, but I love the little window so you can see them. Well, brought him/her to a park and let him/her free, left a cup of seeds for him/her to get started making a new home. Reset the trap and have not seen another. Only one, that's a good thing. Great product, and it works!!!!!!

Thanks for following up!! This Victor Tin Cat Mouse Trap is so awesome. We had several field mice come in when the weather got cold and they were so cute I did not want to hurt them. We caught 12 of them with Peanut Butter and took them back out to the field. THANKS!

I purchase the Victor Tin Cat and it worked like a charm. I caught three over the course of a few hours along with other individuals. I released a total of 8 mouse and I think one of them was a pregnant female because she was so round. I have had no signs of others so I think we are good for the season. I really like the clear top so I can see who is in there and it is easy to clean. The mice seem to be okay with it and looked around. I could also put a capful of water with the peanut butter so that they could hang out comfortably until they were released. Thanks for sending it so quickly. I will definitely recommend this product to others.

It works!! At first I used peanut butter, then switched to crunched up in the shell peanuts. Now I just dump it out after I let the little cuties go.

I ordered the victor tin cat mouse trap to catch mice in our barn and the first 2 days I got nothing. I was using chopped up nuts as bait. I then switched to cat kibbles and that did the trick. We don't like to kill anything so we take the traps and empty them into a field about a mile away. I would recommend this trap as it is so easy to use.

Prior to using the Tin Cat Mouse trap I was somewhat sceptical as to whether it would work. I had some field mice in my house that I wanted to remove without using the regular mousetraps. I was able to catch the mice with the Victor Tin Cat Mouse Trap and release them unharmed to the fields outside. Definitely would recommend the product, easy to use and clean.

I had been struggling for months and months against an infestation of mice that had just kept on multiplying in my garage. I had tried all kinds of traps, poison, etc with hardly any success. I bought 3 Tin Cat Mouse traps and for the past several nights have been catching at least a dozen in each trap. I release them into a field about a mile from my house. What a difference I have noticed! Thanks so much!

Did the trick! Didn't have to set a trap and worry about my dog or cats getting caught in it by mistake. Put a couple of peanuts in it and the little mouse showed up. I felt better letting him go outside instead of killing him. Great product!

These traps are the greatest I have seen. Mice just love them. I do, too since I do nothing but empty the mice. The only problem I have encountered is occasionally a mouse will get under one of the ramps and die there. It makes that ramp useless until you clean it out. The other ramp still catches mice.

Great humane mouse trap! I had bought a cheaper version at walmart. It was plastic and hard to open and close. The Victor Tin Cat Mouse Trap is perfect! I can see if I have caught anythng through the see through top so no need to open it if nothing was caught. It is super easy to open and clean. It has air venting on the side and is easy to pick up and easy to place almost anywhere. It says it can hold up to 30 mice, but the most I have caught at one time is three and that was the first night. LOVE LOVE LOVE this humane trap

The Victor Tin Cat Repeating Mouse Traps work great for us since we have a small parrot and we don't want him getting caught in a regular mouse trap. The mice do go in them , but we have only been able to catch one at a time. Guess we have smart mice. :). We have caught 13 so far and this is more than we have caught with any other device. I don't like to kill them so I take them out in the country and let them go into the woods. We feel that these Victor Tin Cat Mouse traps fill our needs quite well!

I baited 3 traps with peanutbutter and this a.m. caught a mouse (I think he's a loner). I recommend this trap with the window. I could tell by looking thru the window that a mouse had been in it, but I couldn't see or hear anything so I thought it had escaped. I picked up the trap and looked more closely thru the window. That's when I saw a mouse tail sticking out from under the ramp. I released it in the woods with seeds about 2 miles away. I had to turn the trap upside down and tap it on the ground before it fell out. I think it was scared witless. Without the window, I would never have known the mouse was in there since they apparently don't always scurry around and make mouse noises in the trap. I tried mint oil, dried predator urine crystals and Bounce sheets and nothing worked. This trap works fine!

I has great success with this trap. Caught 4 and released a few miles away in a field distant from houses. Trap is great as I can see in and it catches more than one at a time. The only trap I'll ever need.

Worked perfectly the first night. A little peanut butter in the middle and we had him. In the morning, I was able to remove the perfectly healthy and unharmed mouse from the house and release it with no physical contact.

Had 2 traps for only 2 days and caught 2 mice. Problem Solved! Haven't caught any more. Still checking traps daily. Used dry dog kibble for bait. Much better than messy peanut butter. They loved it! Set mice free in far away wooded area! Highly recommend this product. Very easy to set and clean! Just add kibble, empty, wash, repeat!

Trapped seven mice, who had been sneaking into a cupboard, in three days. Since then, no more. Apparently got them all. Removing the trap mechanisms for cleaning was a little difficult. I corrected this by carefully selecting and flattening those locating tabs that were not necessary for proper securement of the mechanisms. After that, it is quite easy to remove and replace them. I highly recommend this trap due to its effectiveness and humane treatment of the little critters. Don't forget to check it often lest they starve themselves and die a cruel prolonged death. And leave them some food and water too.

I purchased these after an on-line search for humane mouse traps. My husband was skeptical and said they wouldn't work. But I believed the other reviewers that they would, and I was pleasantly surprised when they did! We used peanut butter as recommended and within a couple of days we had three mice in one trap and a day later another mouse showed up in a different one upstairs. The mice were released in a field down the street. The only challenge was that as the mice ran around in the trap trying to get out they dragged the peanut butter everywhere and made a bit of a mess. Thanks for the great traps--I like the humane option a lot better than the alternative!

It is the BEST- most humane - mouse trap ever! Check daily for the little critters. When you are ready to release the mouse, place the box on the ground - open area outside is the best; open the top a bit to dislodge - make sure the opening of the box is NOT facing you. When you are ready to release the mouse, open the top fully - stand back because the mouse will JUMP out! The mouse will be on its way and free to do mouse things out in the wild. No nasty mouse traps/glue traps or dead mice to deal with.

I had a mouse that was outsmarting my other "humane" trap; he was growing fatter as I was getting more frustrated. I took a chance and bought the Victor Tin Cat Mouse Trap and it worked in 3 days. I released my "prize" in a field near-by. I would definitely recommend this product.

I keep three of these outside around my house. It could not work better. Mice go into the trap, eat the bait, starve, die and become bait. When I empty them out in the spring they are full of mouse bones and a little fur. Too many mice to count. One in my woodpile. One under the front and back stairs to porches. No odor until you open them to empty them. I would be checking wire snap traps daily. I just empty these and add bait twice a year, spring and fall.

I have had experience with this trap before but not the model with a see-thru lid. Every bit as efficient as the older model but a lot easier to check.
