Catchmaster Rat, Snake and Mouse Traps 8Pk, Large Bulk Glue Rat Traps for Home, Adhesive Plastic Tray for Inside House, Snake, Mice, & Spider Catcher, Pest Control for House & Garage

We use these glue traps on our boat to catch cockroaches, and they work great. After hauling our boat out for work, we ended up with roaches inside, and these traps have been the easiest solution. We place them in the bilges, and once an insect is caught, it’s not getting out. They’re very sticky, durable, and last a long time as long as you keep them out of the dust (dust will make them less effective). When they’re full or lose stickiness, we just throw them out and replace them - simple and effective.Glue traps won’t completely wipe out roaches since they lay eggs, so we also use borax and an ozone machine for extra control. Still, these traps are perfect for leaving out all the time to catch unwanted critters. Just be careful not to step in them or let pets get near them - they are very sticky. No poisons, just a safe, easy way to manage pests. Highly recommend, especially for boat use!

I bought a pack of these and am 2-for-2 so far against a couple of mice I've been trying to eliminate. A couple of comments to address some negative reviews: 1) I suspect these traps won't work well for larger rats, which would have more strength to struggle and break free (leaving behind some fur as seen in the review photos). 2) You do have to be careful separating the traps. If you squeeze the middle while pulling them apart, the glue will definitely stick to itself and damage the traps. One additional comment: the instructions caution against using peanut butter as an additional attractant, since the oils could soften the glue. I found that a little dollop right in the center of the trap works fine with no ill effects.

We live in the country and we had field mice coming into our garage. They were starting to become a huge nuisance. They were bringing fleas into our dogs. The expensive flea collars didn’t work. We treated the fleas and they weren’t going away. We put out the traps and took care of the mice and that took care of the fleas. We treated the garage and the dogs and they were fine after we got rid of the mice. Would recommend these traps. Worked good with peanut butter.

Best trap so far, but they did wiggle out by eating the plastic. Luckily my feline caught one that had gotten away. I could hear them get trapped in the middle of the night. The trick is to put these where they like to sneak food. I put one on top if the garbage bin, and the other on the counter below the cabinets. It really worked, but for some reason they fight until they get free. With any hope the one that my cat did not get learned something.

I rarely leave reviews on amazon for anything since im usually content with most thingsHowever this was … BEYOND MY EXPECTATIONS!I was so scared that my garage had snakes (which i think is a baby lizard that now i look at it closely after its dead on the sticky pad LOL) but after only few days of leaving the trap, i found it dead!!Also caught another animaI think most likely a mole but maybe a possum?I wasnt even expecting this catch at all but am very happy with this! Makes me feel like i can just but a bunch more and put it all over my house to feel safe :)100% recommend!!!

A rat in our house paid no attention to the bait in a snap trap and the bait in an electric zapper trap. It was living under our stove. Then, we tried this glue trap. It took a little over a week, but finally, the rat got stuck to it and we whacked it with a mallet. A bloody end, but what a relief to not have a rat running around our kitchen at night. Thank you!

Tips:Place this against a wall where you last saw activity. Mice tend to travel along walls, not open floors. Be patient. Mine took about a week to catch with a few of these set up. The bait that worked best for me was popcorn. Caught the mouse causing me grief and tossed outside without having to kill it. Highly recommend.

I'm battling a plague of mice. These mice attracted snakes. The snakes follow the mice into the house, and there they are, in my kitchen. Please don't tell me how good innocent little snakes are. I am terrified of them. Right now I am doing battle with a 4-foot King snake. He's hunting mice. I'm hunting him.Mice are smart little devils. If you let them, they will destroy your house. Down through the years I have employed humane snap traps, and cats. Cats are the best as long as they are strictly indoor adventurers. I am between cats right now, and must resort to my own devices. Mice will avoid snap traps fairly quickly. I have had some success with green pellet poisons, but it takes awhile. Ultrasonics are not working for the mice. I am desperate because of the snake, so I have decided glue traps will help me solve my problems. Not the happy choice, but it's me or them.I chose this glue trap because it says it can catch snakes too. They are a decent size. They are two to a pack. They come folded over with the glue facing inward. There is a small plastic hinge which has always broken, but that's okay with me. Once you open the box, you have to place two traps or set up a sandwhich board style along your baseboards. They are easy to pry apart. They have little projections to keep them reasonably apart.The glue is very strong. I accidentally rolled an empty, large vitamin bottle onto the first one, and it wasn't going to come off, period. I had to leave it attached. There is not much of a glue free edge to them, so handle carefully.The first night I caught a full grown mouse. It was an awful experience. He couldn't get free. He already lived his best life in my kitchen. But, the next night, nothing. The mouse telegraph went around, and all the traps were avoided. I saw with my own eyes a mouse crawl upside down, like Tarzan, under the lip of the drainboard, in order to avoid walking on the trap. That's how smart they are.So, I had to bait my traps with some of the little green poison pellets, which mice love. Third night I caught two small mice on one trap. The next day, the snake came out. He didn't seem to notice those two mice, but went over to inspect the first mouse trap. He got caught in the glue.I admit that I was pleased as heck, what an enormous weight off my back, having caught that snake. The snake thrashed and tried to flee. Because this trap was up on my center island, he fell onto the floor behind a box. Not to worry. I didn't even look. I figured I would deal with it when the snake was tired. Well, do I have to tell you? Not only did the snake get loose, but it showed up crawling towards me. What a nightmare.I opened a larger, different brand of glue trap, just to see if it would hold the snake, if I ever catch it again. That trap just seems bigger, without any particular extra strength to the glue. I plan to mix up the brands of glue traps and just keep them deployed.So, I think that this brand of glue trap is fine for mice. I plan to bait mine, even though it says you don't have to do that. It is not strong enough to hold a young, healthy King snake, and probably not a garden snake. Maybe little, tiny brand new snakes, but not full grown ones, and certainly not the kind you see pictured on the box. Still, I feel safer with my ring of traps, and that counts for something. I would buy again.
