These only arrived yesterday and set both up with a scoop of peanut butter for bait. We knew we had something in the house and within 24hrs one of the traps caught the culprit. A rat!! In the hall way .. these do work!
The rat traps work. Just be aware, that there are two packed together. I believed there to be only one, it’s not obvious from the pakaging. I complained, then realised, and apologised, the seller was very understanding.
hese traps are very powerful and do the job in a split second with a clean dispatch.
But they need to be set up in a proper place. with the design it is easy for the vermin to eat the bait from the trap without triggering it. as they can eat it without putting their feet on the trap.
so they work much better by putting them in a small cardboard shoe box type of design where the bait is at the back of the trap and the vermin needs to crawl through the trap to get to it not around the side. that way you are guaranteed of a 100% kill rate.
Amazon would not post my original review as it contained a photo of the product in use with a dead rat. If the image of a dead rat offends, then this is not the product for you as it actually does work!
UPDATE: In 1 week with this trap, it has caught 4 massive rats where other methods have done diddly-squat. Effective and easy to use.
They’re easy to set up, very straightforward, and seem robust and sturdy.
We haven’t caught anything, but the traps have been disturbed and no visitors have been seen for a couple of weeks now so hopefully they’ve moved back to the canal.
I’m refreshing one trap regularly, just in case
So no catches this time, but I’d certainly buy these again if needed. String, straightforward, affordable, exactly what we needed.
Thanks for reading, I hope you find this review helpful.
Following morning I found it all cleared, not a dot left.
So I had hope of catching it.
Second night I put peanut butter bait n set the trap.
Following morning found a huge rat caught.
Did the same trap following night!
You are right: found another big one caught the following morning.
Wow !
This is 100%!
Is easy to set up, easy to remove the dead rat etc.
Use gloves however to set up n handling generally.
As the rats when they smell your hands may take off without getting to the bait.( clever creatures)
Good value. I think that the hole for the bait should be made so it’s harder for the bait to come out, maybe a * shaped hole to grip better. I used a lump of sticky liquorice so it didn’t fall out and reward the rat if it got triggered without getting trapped.
Bought this rat trap to address the issue in our garden, 1 of the traps work better than the other one, but still does the job. Unfortunately i had a the privilege of seeing how rat got trapped in it and have to say its not an instant death, it took good 10-15 seconds of rat flipping and trying to get out of it before it died. It wasn’t pleasant thing to see but im glad it worked.
he trap works perfectly well, but the rats in our neighbourhood seem particularly smart. The food keeps being eaten and the trap remains empty. This is not a failure in the product, but more as a result of rat evolution.
The first night these were down the rat was able to nibble the bait and not get caught. This is when I upped the antics and spread the treat all over the step so it’s chances of triggering the trap went up. It worked a treat and caught the little foam chewing demon in it’s tracks.
Be careful not to catch your fingers. You’d end up in a&e
RIP Remy
I had to wd40 the second one before it would trigger. Caught some mice in it although I was expecting rats. Used peanut butter as bait. Easy to set up and easy to dispose of critters without touching them.
Pure rat killers, within space of a week I caught 7 rats! I’ve bought more expensive rat traps, that didn’t kill them instantly, but this sure does! And for the price for 2 is brilliant. Highly recommended
Strong, solid and snappy when the rodent sets it off, its not going to escape.
These are great. Didn’t work at first but once I secured the traps to the ground (I used a couple of metal skewers) they worked a treat. Tried various other traps but this was by far the best solutio
Trap was closed twice and Nutella gone but got him on the third go.
So we bought these as a last resort and they definitely work! We are constantly catching rats. We put a little peanut butter on the hole and they are catching them within hours. Highly recommend this product.
What can I say got the rat 1st night, it was still in same place I set it so it did its job instantly
So it does catch them but the rats keep on coming I’ve got three up to now, I think i will change to rat poison..
These traps work brilliantly. With the right bait these traps worked within 20minutes of setting them.
Worked fine however you must nail or screw them to the floor or the snap of it will just launch it into the air and the rodent will escape. Once it was secured rat was caught straight away.
Killed 2 rats, they work. But be sure to put the peanut butter right into the bait hole, so that the vermin has to lean right in to lick it out. If you don’t the rat will have a tasty treat and likely escape unscathed.
These traps were delivered today at 1.15 set by 1.19 and caught two rats by 1.21 !!!! Very pleased can not thank you enough Great value quick delivery and easy to set ! Just caught another one ! Three within the hour really amazing would recommend Thank you Susie !
Don’t know if they effective or not as the rat I was trying to trap has disappeared.
Had a large visitor in our loft and it seemed to be growing stronger by the day. Like a Superhero at night, all I could hear was, Pow, Crash, Thwack. I put some Nutella on both traps and later that night – Kerching! Massive guest checked out. Buy with confidence, the traps are very powerful, so I’d suggest testing it out before setting. Chocolate spread was great as bait, as I could hear the pitter patter and scratching from about 8pm, which was mega early for our nocturnal guest. By 9pm it was no more.
Very fast acting, put some peanut butter on end, Rolly and Rosie rat were dead within a day. Very easy to set up just be careful though as very sensitive and they could break your fingers. Definitely recommend these traps. The bang once caught is very loud so be aware.
Easy to use (even though mine came with no instructions) and i actually forgot id left this trap in my loft. Checked this morning after waiting 3 days and presto! I got the little #### (insert bad word) so all in all this is a very effective trap. Be careful though, i did accidentally set it off myself and it was rather painful! Traps are reusuable so ive already places them back up there. Im sure there are more.
Had a cheeky rat in the attic that loved eating bags and bags of rat poison, might as well have been pet food. Just put two of these up there and not 5 minutes later I hear one trip. One ex-rat. Very easy to remove from the trap thanks to the handle.
After setting it up and putting in the loft where I’ve been hearing mice across the ceiling. Within 10 mins it caught my first mouse. Did the job and has done so multiple times. Highly recommended
We caught two big rats in the first night, we used Nutella chocolate spread as bait and the job was done!
Brilliantly strong and affective.
Very strong mechanism which will hopefully do the trick! Arrived next day. Good value for money
I bought a 2 packed based on the reviews. I needed these for my green house, mice or rats were eating my plants. I have caught 5 mice in three days.
I used peanut butter as bait as per other reviews. I put the bait in the little bait pot, I use both thumbs to pull over bar and click under catch to set it. Next day dead mice. I will stop when there is still bait in pot which means no other mice around to eat it. I would highly recommend these over the basic wooden one which didn’t work.
Good price and for two!! As described and work well. Easy to set up.
Read some negative reviews so I didn’t know if it would be any good. In the past I’ve found that a lot of the time you have to take these with a pinch of salt as sometimes they don’t know how to use the stuff.
I set one trap with chocolate and the other with pate and caught the rat in my attic within 8 hours. It was not a large one but the trap triggered OK and it looked to be a clean quick kill.
Did the job amazingly. Placed it in the loft late afternoon and when checked the following morning the mouse was caught and dead
Very good at there job, caught me a couple of times.
No picture but it caught a huge rat on the first night.
Really strong, not caught my rat yet but it will definitely know about it when it does come across it.
To catch a rat that has got into my household waste bin that is housed in a cupboard under the sink , he’s come in through the waste pipe hole from out side , but he’s not tapped yet and haven’t seen him since
I used it for exactly what it said the product was for .
These rat traps are well made and very effective. Baited with a little crunchy peanut butter they are taking a rat each every night! Gotcha! Bought to protect my chicken coop, they are doing a great job. Highly Recommended.
Managed to get rid of a huge rat within 2 days. Be sure to use good bai
I had a mice and rat problem due to next door building and extension and the rats coming from under the foundation. So far this has killed 1 rat and 2 mice. I recommend to use Cheddar cheese as the rats are attracted to this and will be killed. Loved the ease of use and been worthwhile to purchase.
Got them and set them with a bit of cheese killed my first rat within 2 hours of delivery and 2nd overnight make sure they are tied or staked 2nd was very large and moved trap 1 meter before dying first was instantly killed changed bait to chicken tonight let’s see what happens
Easy to set up, much safer for fingers than the traditional style traps.
Did the job.
We kept seeing Mr Rat run across the patio. Put these traps down with chocolate honey spread in and within hrs Mr Rat was laying next to the trap dead. What can I say, they work! 4 days later no more sightings and traps still all empty, so looks like Mr Rat may have been a loner.
Hopefully.
These are nasty traps. They kill even pretty big rats. Thoroughly recommend them.
Good value. Used it to try and catch a ra
Day 1 .. unwanted visitor sighted in garden. traps ordered.
Day 2 .. traps delivered and placed in flower beds , bated with peanut butter and C*****y’s dairy milk.
Day 3 .. one trap with fox-gnarled rat now in centre of lawn. 2nd trap missing presumed activated.
single remaining trap reset and this time wired to garden bench.
Day 4 .. further rat caught and very dead. further success anticipated. woo hoo.
Easy to set up, strong quick kill. Great
Little piece of kit.
Easy to set up and certainly does the job. Going out of my mind with a pest problem in rented accommodation and thought I would try these. Caught two rats within hours. Try toffee crisp in food section they seem to like that.
Easy to use & although once or twice the rats got away with the bait, on the whole, deadly efficie
Haven’t actually caught a rat in this yet, but an unfortunate bird tried to help itself to the bait and didn’t live to tell the tale.
I’d recommend pegging these down, as the force of the trap springing makes it fly up in the air, so could mean it misses the ra
Very successful caught many rats very happy with these traps
Very good value for money – would recommend to anyone
Caught 3 rats in 24 hours and all seem to be instant kills. Working perfectly.
Easy to use, easy to fit the bait and it does what it says
Had them down 5 hours and already caught a mouse using a peanut butter. I didn’t know if I had mice or rats and i wasnt sure if the weight of a mouse would set this off so bought two kinds of traps. However, this caught the mouse fine own its own so top marks.
Load it up with peanut butter and the rats will come….the trap does the rest. This has worked numerous times for us across the past 6 months, pests now well under control
One rat caught within 24 hours, sometimes a little difficult to reset but seems to do the trick!
Great made product. Well made and easy to clean. Lethal. Very strong spring.
Good quality traps, fit nicely inside a bait box I had too.
One small problem, they’re advertised as rat traps but so far I have only caught two small mice.
Worked perfectly.
2 mice in the first night.
Easy to load up and set
Kept out in the rain for 2 weeks with no issues.
Does the job. Easy to use and easy to clea
Used the crap poison, didn’t work bought the trap… here is the resul
We used these with blocks of rat poison & I think the vermin have enjoyed the poison as even tho we put stuff on the traps we didn’t catch anything.
I could not recommend it more.
Arrived quickly and did its job the second night I recommend peanut butter as bai
Excellent purchase. Caught 2 rats on the same day as delivered. Can’t catch mice as they are not heavy enough to release the trap. Mice sit on the trap and enjoy the peanut butter.
Really amazed at the efficiency of these. Had two rats in the house and placed both products, worked in under 5 mins with minimal fuss. Would recommend
I saw a rat in my kitchen so bought these as I have young children .. I set them at night and caught the rat within 1 hour. These are brilliant and killed the rat instantly which I felt better about.
Had to get these has i seen a huge rat in the garden hoping to catch i
No on likes to use these but if you do this is a simple setup and clean tool to kill Rats. Robust and easy to clean.
Well made steel traps, do the job efficiently – already caught a couple of rats. Traps were despatched and arrived very promptly. Excellent service
