Southern Homewares Humane Multi-Catch Mouse Trap Repeater Corner Unit - Catch and Release Reusable Safe Design

However, the mouse can hide in the little tunnel that it crawled into. So it's difficult to let the mouse out when you take it somewhere in a grassy or wooded area.

Based on other reviews I baited the trap with a Ritz cracker and peanut butter. The mouse showed itself as soon as I brought down the peanut butter, hiding again when it saw me. I put the trap in a corner, and sure enough my furry guest was caught by morning.The clear top makes it easy to see into the main area, though your first clue that it's been tripped is the mouse poop and moved bait. The mouse tends to hide in the entry tunnels and can be hard to spot at first glance.Contrary to other reviewers, my mouse didn't want to leave the trap when I opened it in a park a few blocks away! It took several minutes to coax it out of the trap after opening it.UPDATE: Another year, and a new mouse to trap. This time it took a second night before the mice went for it -- I caught 3 this time, and will keep putting it out for at least another week just in case there are any more. 2 of the 3 mice leaped out and ran away as soon as I opened it up in the park down the road, though the third needed some coaxing.Based on other recommendations, I placed a paper towel over the top screen this time before moving the trap. I suspect that did keep them calmer and hence more willing to jump away immediately upon release.The only anoyance is that 3 mice leave behind quite a bit of poop to clean up after (they ate part of the cracker and all of the peanut butter) -- I sprayed it clean with a garden hose, then had to use a paper towel to get the bits stuck in the corners.

After a while the spring that keeps the entry track up weakens and the mice can escape.

I wish I would have found this multi-catch trap sooner because it works.... it catches multiple mice at a time and DOESNT ALLOW THEM TO ESCAPE. If your new to the mice trapping game you may be saying how could a mouse escape ? Well before buying this trap I bought plastic traps and the after the mice is trapped they scratch and chew the plastic until the latch holding them in breaks. The mice escape and the plastic trap no longer works. But these traps are made of METAL. The mice can chew all they want but they cannot escape.This trap has made life a lot easier. We have a mice problem in our attic which is only a crawl space with pull down stairs. Its a pain to keep going up there. So the fact that this trap catches and holds multiple mice at time is fantastic. We open it once a day and it's caught at least 1 and I've had up to 3 at a time every night. I use peanut butter and they cannot resist it. Within 30 minutes of putting the trap out a mouse goes in and gets caught. They walk through the opening, over what looks like a tiny metal seesaw and once their weight transfers over it, it closes and they cannot get out. The clear lid allows you to see if there are mice inside and then it opens and you can release them. It advertises it can hold up to 12 mice which I guess is true space wise if they were babies but more realistic I'd say it could hold 8 adult field mice if they were dumb enough to enter when it's packed with mice.SOME TIPS: Use peanut butter, it works great. I posted pictures to show where I had the most success with putting peanut butter. If it's too close to the sides they can reach in through holes on the outside and eat it without entering the trap. The fresher the peanut butter the better. You don't need a lot but the smell is strongest when you first put it out. I've had the most success at night. They come out when it's dark and quiet so I empty the trap in the day and leave it ready to catch more overnight. Hope this helps, Good luck !

Worked GREAT! For about a week - then mice trapped were able to bend the metal inside and escape - if you can empty it shortly after they are caught you're good - but if it happens at night when you're sleeping, they can have enough time to bend the metal (sigh)

We were watching tv one night when a mouse ran across the floor and under the couch. Apparently it was mama mouse and was building a home inside the back of the couch.**Note: this room is above the garage and the mouse must've come in through the hole where the heating pipes are, which have been resealed.I first bought the single size black plastic lever trap and caught one large mouse within a day using crunchy peanut butter.Fast forward a few days and I saw a very small baby in the basement so I bought this metal trap in case there were others. And THERE SURE WERE!For 3 days in a row I set it up with peanut butter on the sides you can see thru the viewing window and caught the rest. The first day there were 3 babies then the second day 2 more. On the third day there was just one larger mouse, assuming it was the papa mouse.The trap functions well and the lever action keeps them in once they go over it. With the baby mice they were hard to see as they would hide back inside the tunnels. I didn't know how many I caught until I shook the open trap and they hopped out.For years I used the snap traps but with a nature loving spouse and daughter, this was the best option and they even came along for the ride to release them into a field a mile away. A quick rewash and fresh peanut butter and it's ready to go with years (hope not) of potential use ahead.

Product is easiest enough to use but my mice are too smart for this. Tried several different foods inside but haven’t caught anything yet

Bought for my mum. Yet to catch a mouse even with peanut butter! Have tried in various places but mouse just avoids it.

El ratón entraba por la carnada y se salía sin problema. Tal vez era demasiado pequeño, no me fue útil :(
