desertcart.com : RinneTraps - Flip N Slide Bucket Lid Mouse Trap | Original | Made in USA | US PAT D1,039,648s : Patio, Lawn & Garden

Review: Works AWESOME!!! - Seriously, 20 stars! It works really well. First, I will say that I was mildly annoyed that the way it was packaged for shipping was a little uninspired. I had ordered two of these lid traps and they placed both into a box. That doesn’t sound like much of a problem, however, the two didn’t really neat well one on top of the other, so, the one on the top that was resting over the one on the bottom arrived warped and refused to sit flat, even when snapped onto a 5 gallon bucket. It still works but it had a little warping to it. I’m sure it doesn’t impact its effectiveness but it does mean that the black flipper part, when in its resting position, actually doesn’t sit flush with the yellow snap-on lid…it sits just a little lower on one side and means the black flapper part, swivels at a slight skew to the left. Now, a disclaimer for the squeamish, not that I feel a disclaimer should be necessary for a product designed to catch mice…but the product caught more mice than I ever even realized we had. I live in a modest farm with chickens. The feeder that we hang down from the ceiling with a chain sits off the ground about 2 to 3 inches. Any higher than this and our chickens can’t really get at the pellets in the deep ring that encircles the central cone of the feeder that holds surplus pellets that help to make sure that the pellets in the ring never goes empty as the chickens eat the pellets. Well, the mice figured out at some point that, not only was their a ready supply of food in the chicken coop, via this feeder, but that if they jumped into the ring of pellets around the central cone, and dug down far enough, they could squeeze through the gap between the bowl/ring of pellets and then dig their way up into the center of the cone in the middle. They could eat without being pecked or killed by the chickens. To get into the central cone, they have to dig a lot against a never ending replenishment of pellets pouring into the void they make in the bowl/ring. The act of digging meant that pellets would fly out in all directions, out of the bowl and into the floor. I would fill it up with about 5 lbs of pellets when I put the chics away at night, and by morning nearly 4 lbs if the pellets were now on the floor of the chicken roost. Worse, is that the mice had proliferated to the point that they were consuming nearly 3lbs of pellets the dark of night, and when they had to be in guard through the light of day, they managed to consume another pound of pellets. I was constantly refilling their feeder on a daily basis and going through chicken pellet feed like it was going out of style. That stuffs not cheap. However, most concerning than the loss and waste of food was the feces and their diseases. The chickens regularly killed whatever mice they could peck to death, and then try to eat it. And, the mice feces was not only all over the ground, everywhere, but they would defecate inside the laying boxes and inside the feeder. If you have ever seen chickens, they’re not the smartest. If it’s small and they can get it into their beak, they’ll try to eat it. I was always concerned with the eggs they produced and if the eggs might have diseases. Also, I didn’t want my chickens getting diseased. The mice feces was everywhere. We had to wear masks when we regularly cleaned out the roost because their was so much of their feces that their was legitimate concerns for contracting something from the dust that billows out when mucking out the roost along with so much rodent feces. It got to the point that, when putting the chickens away at dusk, the mice would be coming out of the woodwork, literally, in numbers that looked plague like when I would enter the roost and turn on the light. It was crazy looking. Anyway, the real disclaimer, many mice did not survive. Stop reading any further if this upsets you. I don’t like the idea of taking life, even if it should be mice. However, I draw the line when their numbers are out of control and causing great risk to health. I looked long and hard for a trap that would be effective, as I’ve seen some bad reviews on traps that claim to be really great. Well, I can tell you that this is the real deal! When I got the lid traps, I snapped it onto one of the many skate 5 gallon buckets I have around the farm. The directions/pictures aren’t the clearest for where to put the bait. Hence, I did it wrong when I first applied some peanut butter to the trap. I had read a review that mentioned putting peanut butter on the louvering lid. THIS METHOD IS WRONG!!! Instead, the raised dome over the louvering lid terminates into a kind of rounded “nose” right at the tip of the louvering lid that causes mice to walk out too far to fall in. In this “nose” of sorts is where you want to put the bait/peanut butter. The lid is designed to stay flat until the very end, enticing mice to walk out until they’ve reached a point of no return. However, the peanut butter, when applied to the lid, does two things. It defeats some of the careful balance in the louvering lid sometimes causing the lid to swing down too early because the peanut butter has weight too, adding to the buildup of weight from an approaching mouse. I watched more than a few times where mice were able to escape the swing of the lid because they hadn’t gone far enough over the lid to hit that “point of no return”. Second, the peanut butter, when added to the louvering lid rather than in the nose of the dome, adds texture. The lid is slippery, but the peanut butter helps to actually give some grip and so the mice weren’t sliding down enough before they caught traction in the peanut butter and were able to jump back far enough out of the overhead/dome and escape…not always, but usually. Plus, when a mouse did fail to escape, as they slid in and over the edge of the louvering lid, they took some of the peanut butter bait with them on their coats, essentially wiping the bait off each time. This left little to entice other mice to investigate the trap. The peanut butter in the nose of the de was magic. Once I switched to doing this, and put the bucket trap in a place that the curious chickens couldn’t interfere with it or scare the mice away, the morning count every morning for nearly two weeks was nothing short of a blessing. In two weeks, I had caught nearly 200 mice. 200!!! I hadn’t dreamed it would be that successful and so quickly. I also hadn’t realized we had that many though I knew we had a lot. I mean, 3 to 4 lbs of pellets don’t disappear, daily, with only a few nice. I thought maybe 40 because I had estimated about that many scattering each night when I turned the light on in the coop to close it up for the night ti protect the chickens from nightly predators. I still have the trap out and baited, but only because I want to nip it in the bud. Should anymore visitors in the night decide to try and raid the chicken food again. The daily catch after about 1.5 weeks began to slowly decrease until the end of the 2nd week I caught just a single mouse. I had placed pellet food inside the bucket trap, and hung the chicken feeder high up out of the reach of their insanely high/far jumps. This limited food and forced them to find the peanut butter in my trap. I also realized that, if I already had one or two mice in the trap, others seemed to feel like the food in the trap was a safe place to eat and they wanted in on the food too. So, I left pellets down in the bucket to give them something to eat and to keep them fed and to get their eating noises to attract the other mice to the trap. Worked like a charm. I wont say exactly what I did with the mice, but numbers like that, and the infestation they were causing, along with the dangerous health implications of their feces in everything and everywhere, I simply wasn’t going to let them go…and to take them somewhere else to be someone else’s problem wasn’t right either. All I will say is that their end was as humane as I could possibly make it. As for those who may have a mouse problem, not ideal for rats really, this is it! It’s seriously that good! I will tell every farmer I know about this simple but extremely effective trap. I also hang my feeder up high now at night to not encourage their return. But, as for how effective this trap is…I Couldn’t be happier. And, after those two weeks of heavy catches, I haven’t see a single mouse, not even one, or signs of one, in two months since. Not in the food, not in the traps, no pecked to death nice, nothing. Awesome!!!
Review: Chipmunk Fell For It - I bought this gadget to humanely catch chipmunks and redeem myself in the eyes of God. I was using the old-fashioned and highly effective "chipper dipper" bucket method. After scooping a few struggling chipmunks out of my new in-ground pool, I noticed the little guys can actually swim pretty well. This led to the awful realization that my bucket of death is a cruel method of pest control where they swim around terrified for way too long until completely exhausted and then they die. I am surely going to Hell. After 10 Hail Marys, 5 Our Fathers, and a donation to a wildlife rehab, I tried snap traps thinking this would at least be quick and they wouldn't know what hit them. I caught mice. I guess that's to be expected and is technically a bonus, but the chipmunks were still digging around my foundation, nesting in my lawn tractor and generally mocking me by shrieking every time I walked around the corner of the house. I prayed for a solution and desertcart answered with the Rinne Flip N Slide Bucket Lid. Praise Jesus and the inventors of this device. I can now rest easy knowing I am not needlessly murdering small critters and I may see St. Peter after all. In the video, you can see that I don't even have the trap set up correctly. The ladder is on the ground (because a fat squirrel tried to climb it in a previous video) but the chipper hops right up and takes a nosedive moments later. I saw a video where a mouse was able to jump back out of the bucket by bumping the opposite end of the trap door open. It's possible, but that mouse was either super smart or extremely lucky, jumping in exactly the right spot. My chipmunk wasn't so lucky or smart and stayed trapped for several hours, according to the timestamp on my trailcam. I took my first step towards atoning for my sins by releasing this guy in a nice wooded area several miles away. I'm no fool. I drove him across a river first. They're good swimmers, but I feel fairly confident that the CT River is wide enough and will not be parted by the Moses of chipmunks. Back to the bucket, though. You need to buy your own. They are a few bucks at Lowes and this lid fits perfectly. It snaps on very easily. The trap door sets in two grooves and is very tippy as you can see in the video when my guy falls in. The ladder attaches in a slot and I think it would've stayed in place if the chunky squirrel didn't climb it. At one point, several birds landed on it and the bucket lid. I used peanut butter and sunflower seeds as bait. I smeared the peanut butter on the inside of the trap and stuck seeds to it, then sprinkled seeds on the lid and around the base and ladder. I was worried one of the birds might fall in and injure itself in a panic. Luckily that didn't happen as they were not willing to go underneath where the peanut butter and seeds were stuck. The squirrels are big enough to hold on and get under to steal the bait. A few lost their grip and almost fell in, but easily jumped clear. I think if a squirrel did fall in, he would be able to pop the top off the bucket to get out. It's not a super tight fit but it would definitely hold mice and chipmunks and anything else that couldn't easily reach the top. Other people gave advice to tape the trap door closed and bait the trap a few times so the critters can get used to it. If they get the bait without falling in a few times, they'll feel safe going up there. I did not do this and plenty of critters seemed to feel perfectly safe. I caught the one I wanted, so it's a win. You could also put water in the bucket and end it, if you're heartless and mean. If you're going to do that, save your money. They will jump in without the fancy ladder and lid, trust me. As far as the trap goes, it seems sturdy enough and is extremely easy to use. I thought the price was a little high, considering it doesn't even come with a bucket, but it is made in America and it works, so I won't complain. There are apparently knockoffs from China that don't work. This real Rinne definitely does work and was worth a couple of more bucks to me. I'm hoping that also scores me a few extra points with the big guy. I thank you for reading my short novel and ask that you'll say a little prayer that I inch closer to a spot in line at the pearly gates (when my time comes, many many years from now) with each chipmunk I safely ferry across the river. Amen.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why is this priced so high?  Sell for $14.99 each snd make a fortune.**
A: We appreciate all the great answers,

The price to employ and manufacture here in the United States is unfortunately not cheap. With the average minimum wage in china being $1.96 and ours in the US being $15 it's very tough to be competitive in price. 

But we will not let this hinder us and will continue to build our brand here in the USA.

Thank you for all your support,

RinneTraps

**Q: Doesn't the bait fall in with the mouse?  Would you have to reload every time?**
A: I put peanut butter on top the narrow end of the flipper towards the center, I also put some on the underside of the flipper directly under the narrow end. I then added some more peanut butter under the wide end of the flipper opposite the narrow end to balance the flipper so that it stays level. I've had this set up in use for well over a month and the same peanut butter has not fallen off and the peanut butter on the top of the pointy end is also still in place because when the mice get close to it they fall in before they can eat it. I just dumped out the mice every few days until there were no more to catch. Caught 10 mice the first day and has slowed down to none after a month. Probably caught 30 mice in 1 month and never had to replace the peanut butter. I also use 2 cups of a 50/50 mix of Corn Meal muffin mix and baking powder with a tablespoon of sugar in the bottom of the bucket. When the rodents eat the mix they can't burp or expel gas in any way so they just swell up and go to sleep, never to wake up again. I just dump them out and refill with a fresh 2 cups of the mix.

**Q: Where are these physically manufactured?**
A: United States...in fact look up Shawn Woods on You Tube.  He has a channel called "Mouse Trap Monday".

**Q: Will this work on chipmunks?**
A: I've caught many chipmunks with mine.

### ⭐ I REALLY wanted this to work.
*by L***B on March 30, 2026*

I had high hopes for this. In theory, it's exactly what I wanted (humane & made in USA), but after using it for three weeks in a back yard teeming with rats (according to my eyes, my dog, and a trail cam), it's caught NOTHING. Not one rat. I've baited it with two different kinds of peanut butter up inside the lid (one with sugar added and one without) and sunflower seeds in the bucket as instructed...even tried adding American cheese and some rat bait (both in the bucket), and not one single rat has made its way to the bottom of the bucket. They have definitely chewed the top of the RinneTrap (see photo). I reached out to the company hoping for tips and/or a refund, and after a week, I received a long list of trouble-shooting tips and suggestion of possible compensation. I am going to implement their tips and will report back if I start catching rats.
