OWLTRA OW-2 Electric Mouse Trap, Instant Kill Rodent Zapper with Pet Safe Trigger, Black

Can’t praise this trap enough. Had initially used classic cheap snap traps but the mouse kept getting away with the bait every time. Got some of the more expensive ’Phantom’ snap traps from Amazon in the hope of catching him but again it took the bait without fail every night. It had the luck to take it from 4 of them in one night! I started to lose hope of getting this mouse myself and resorted to getting sticky traps. Again the mouse knew to avoid these and also continued to take the bait off other traps. For one final attempt I got one of these traps in the hope of catching it. Lo and behold within 3 hours of putting the trap out he was caught. A week of trying multiple other traps and it was sorted so quickly with this. Design wise I really like it. It’s pretty discreet as far as traps go. It’s well built and the caught indicator is very good. No more being anxious to keep checking the trap to see if anything was caught. Personally I didn’t empty the trap but my housemate said it was pretty easy and he didn’t have to touch the mouse. No mess at all and a bonus is he didn’t touch the bait so was able to immediately reset it and have it out again incase there is more than 1. I’m definitely holding on to this to use as a preventative measure. The other traps are going into the bin. Trust me the price is worth it. The mouse itself was on the smaller/medium sized end so can see why no matter the sensitivity why the traps with platforms never triggered.

This is really effective. I put peanut butter in and didn't turn it on the first night to see if the mouse would go in - it certainly did. So second night I turned it on and it caught a mouse within a couple of hours. Put it on again the next afternoon to see if there were any more, and another was in there within a couple of hours again. Seems to be more humane, looks like it would be pretty instant. Much easier to dispose of than traditional traps too. I have dogs and this is also easy to put out of the way? I'd be much more nervous with traditional traps and the dogs.

Didn't catch a single mouse. Realised why when I caught sight of one of them. The entrance to the trap is too small. The only mice it might have caught would have been young ones.

Spent a couple of days baiting it without the power on near a burrow hole and then we turned it on and it’s caught a massive rat within a couple of hours! It’s been raining as well and worked brilliantly. Nice and easy to tip out the body and reset too. Highly recommend!

Excellent trap. Took a couple of days for the mouse to get curious but then got it, nice and fast

I've had electric traps before, but the jury is out on this one. The batteries in the trap were new, but the mouse although dead, seemed to be able to eat all the food / bait before dying??!!

Today the trap killed its first large rat before that it had caught six mice I saw the rat enter the trap then twitch. I would highly recommend this trap.

Great result. We caught a large rat on the second day, having followed the advice of placing the empty trap first so as to get the rats familiar with it. Also used gloves to avoid human smell. I have replaced the trap, cleaned it out and put fresh bait in a new location where we set rats in our garden. Hoping for another kill soon. Very easy to use and tipping rat out without having to handle it is a big plus.

It is straightforward to use and is effective.

Muy sorprendido con el funcionamiento. Cumple con su cometido. Ideal este modelo dado que tiene un leve pitido alterno en el tiempo que te avisa del premio... Ideal para huecos escondidos o falsos techos. Así te olvidas de andar mirando. La información del fabricante es mínima, revisar mis fotos donde subo el manual y las características. Se puede desconectar el pitido alterno. Lastima tener que usarlo, pero por lo menos los bichos se van al otro barrio de una manera más limpia. Recomiendo meter como cebo queso, es infalible...

Zuerst war ich skeptisch. Aber nach 2 Tagen lag die erste Ratte tot im Kasten. Nach weiteren 8 Tagen hatte ich weitere 5 gefangen. Als Köder hatte ich kleine Schnittkäsestücke mit Nutella verwendet. Wichtig ist die Anordnung, die Köder sind so anzuordnen, dass die Ratte auf 2 Metallscheiben stehen muss, erst dann wird der Elektroschlag ausgeführt. Toll ist auch die Regenabdeckung.

I caught at least 6 mice with this. It is worth every penny. It’s so much more humane than sticky traps or snap traps where they have a slower and more painful death. I can’t stand having killed anything because who am I to decide about life or death and the importance of one over another, but I also can’t afford to be left with messes or smells that cost hundreds or thousands. This is a good middle ground and it acts fast. The zap is relatively loud, so I heard it a few times being in the house. Easy disposal and it works for months at a time. Small foot print and fits in most spaces. Would buy again.

Très bon produit malgré certains autres commentaires négatifs J’ai essayé en un mois 6 souris pris dans le piège J’avais tout essayé avant enfin quelques chose efficace le tout bien placé le piège choisir le bon endroit contre un mur la où elle passe le plus et surtout le bon appât le meilleur appât que J’ai trouvé après des tas essaie barre de céréales aux pommes et surtout laver le piège après capture soupalin imbibé un peu eau car la souris sent les odeurs de produits et votre piège sera bon pour la poubelle mettre toujours des gants latex quand Vous utilisez le piège au déballage du piège à la réception la moindre odeur humaine sur le piège rendra inefficace le piège
