Rat Mouse Rodent Pest Glue Trap (Large Size) Tray Heavy Duty (96 Traps) with Connectors

We live in a nice suburb in Southern California. For years, our neighbors suffered from invasive rats. Thousands of dollars, (automobile wiring, garage invasions, endless premium payments for rodent control, etc.), were invested by our neighbors! We NEVER did, until we lost our beloved Cat, to coyotes! He kept our home absolutely free from them. So, out came the old style wire traps, and the new style plastic snap traps. Weeks went by, and we were losing our battle. The rats were chewing through EVERYTHING, and avoiding the mechanical traps despite peanut butter, Nutella, sugar, cheese, smelly cheese, etc. I tried all kinds of suggested “bait”, but only got 2 in as many weeks. As a last resort, I tried these glue traps. YES, finally success! They went after a plastic jug of plain white Rice like it was candy. So, I placed a mound of it in a dark spot in the garage, and surrounded it with these glue traps. Over the past 3 months, I’ve trapped over one dozen, including a ground squirrel! I leave the rodent droppings around my rice pile and simply replace the trap with the “stuck” rodent, refresh the rice “pile”, and wait for the next one, or two. On one night, I got 2 big rats and 2 mice. The traps are very effective when nothing else works. Today, I just got another one and it’s in today’s trash bin for pick up. Easy!

Easy to use, the quality is good.The price is good and it's works perfectly.it already catch one

I use these for mice in my basement. I was using the smaller mouse sized glue traps but mice kept getting partially caught and dragging the traps off to places unknown. These work much better. No more disappearing traps and sometimes I will catch more than one mouse at a time. I just place a clump of peanut butter in the center.

I put a few of these outside to deal with my outdoor rat issue after traditional snap traps yielded nothing and were too much of a pain to deal with. These traps did a fairly good job as I've caught 3 large rats so far. There has also been several instances where the bait gets eaten and I can see a footprint in the glue or even times where these glue traps end up in different parts of the yard with nothing in them. Overall I'd say that these are pretty effective but certainly not an end all solution.

I must review this product, it works perfectly. Rats are so cunning, they are so annoying if they invade in houses. I hate the rats having been entering into my house for a while already. I tried different glue traps and other kinds of traps, not successful. As it’s too expensive to hire a pest control company, I decided to catch the rats myself. Here I share my experience of successfully killing two big rats. 1. Use security cameras with night vision to learn how the rats come from, where they like to go in your house, how they get away from your trap. 2. Put the glue traps in the way where rats must go to. Block the entire entrance, and pave a wide glue trap. Put food in a place where rats must pass through your traps. They can’t stand the smell. I have some videos from my security cameras, will share next time to let people know how they agile and escape from glue traps if the glue traps are not the correct ones or too narrow.

There's controversy regarding whether to use scented or unscented glue traps. The 25+ peanut butter scented glue traps I laid down caught zero rat. This unscented one caught one, without even having to add food to the middle of trap. Admittedly, its placement was different from the scented ones; so can't provide a definitive answer. But, if you've tried scented ones, (which rats likely learned to avoid), try these unscented type.

I wasn't sure at first when I bought them if they were something I would like, but since nothing else was working I thought I'd give it a try. Place these along baseboards under shelving units, beds, anywhere that a mouse would naturally go and you will catch them. Check on them to see if they've caught anything or else you'll be smelling what you caught. It kills them somehow, not sure of the science behind it but the glue is very tacky. This is my go to mouse catcher from now on, and its easy to dispose of.

TL;DR: Slow, painful death for rats and mice. Sticky as heck. May lead to rodent adoption. I debated how many stars to give this product. It did what I purchased it for, to my absolute horror. If you are at all empathetic towards animals, even if you have an infestation under the house as I do, this method will break your heart. Let no one tell you this is a humane way to get rid of rats. A snap in a trap would be less cruel. When I finally worked up the courage to look at my glue trap a week or so after placement, I found that there were already three or four rats stuck on it. One of them was looking at me. She was still alive, barely. I ran to the house for gloves and then peeled that crying little rat bit by bit from the trap. Her paws and legs were stuck together, her tail was coated, her whiskers clumped. A lot of her hair didn't come with her. If this ever happens to you, just know the best way to get a rat unstuck is with cooking or baby oil. We soaked that poor, wretched rattie before putting her in an improvised cage. She was weak and emaciated; who knows how many days she was stuck on that trap. Not as long as the others, to judge by the insect activity. I won't ever forgive myself. As of this review, this rescued rat has been with us for about five days. Her name is Radish. Her eyes aren't bulging from her skull as much, but her patchy, oily fur makes her look like a singer in an 80's punk band. She's going to make it, though. I'm ordering a cute pink cage for her from Amazon tonight. Just until all her fur grows back, of course. ;) Editing to add: Radish recovered and was set free. We adopted four fancy rats and spoiled them rotten.
