Humane Battery-Powered Indoor Classic Electronic Rat Trap

A:  I have found that these traps do not function well for very long. The light blinking differently may not mean anything, or may mean the batteries are no longer viable. I have quit buying them. This makes me sad because the first one I bought caught 10 squirrels in one spring.

A:  Not100 percent sure. Check the chamber. Red light generally means a kill

A:  I don't think so. If they can fit into the trap it will kill them.

A:  Place the trap where the mice maneuvers especially in tight spots where he won't be able to jump over or around the trap.

A:  mine kills nothing. It sucks and was an expensive mistake.

A:  This trap is recommended for indoor use only.

A:  Mine has killed many mice, and very small ones at that.

A:  This product is recommended for rats.

A:  If you are sure it is dry outdoors, it could definitely be used.

A:  Yes, although the battery cover and the electronics cover are not designed to deflect moisture away from the innards. To be safe, I would probably cover the unit with plastic shrink wrap. Another issue is by-catch. I have more squirrels than rats and I don't want to harm them. So I set the traps in the tool shed and woodshed. alternative is to use bait that the other guys don't like ... e.g., bacon.

A:  For the trap’s sake, as long as it stays dry, it should be fine. However, for wildlife’s sake, PLEASE turn off first thing in the morning! (I failed to warn a friend and the first day she used it, it killed a bird, blue jay, I believe.)

A:  I have used rat zappers (I have two) for years in my garden to keep the mice from eating my vegetables. The zappers work great and are very easy to use. I like them because they are quick to set up, easy to reuse, and don't involve using poisons or spring traps. If you have pets or children, this is a great way to keep the rodent population under control while keeping your loved-ones safe. A little bit of peanut butter and batteries are all you need. They get zapped and you never have to touch them or even see them.

A:  This trap is not recommended for outdoor use.
