Review

Unfortunately I had to get one of these as a rat had managed to sneak indoors and was very difficult to catch. To be honest, we were not sure whether he was a rat or a mouse, but he was a chubby little fellow with messy hair and beady eyes and my sister had nicknamed him Boris. We struggled for five years to catch him, and finally managed it with this wonderful trap.

The trap mechanism works extremely well, however the level of success very much depends upon the type of bait you use. At first I used cheese, because I was a total beginner at this, and I did not much have success. I then tried cat food/dog food and then started to see some results. The smellier the food was the better success I had. I also decided to get proper bait developed by professionals and then I had more success.

My trap came in this nice bright yellow and red coloured box. My postman threw this on the doorstep and ran...

A rat is a living breathing animal that must not be harmed as they are a part of the ecology. Since I am a humanitarian, I decided to get this cage and so far, it has managed to catch some.

Here are the instructions printed on the box. This is a very easy trap to use, and you need just a little bit of common sense. Of course one must always wear protection such as gloves when handling such rodents.
