Summary: 5 Stars
[Note: This is a good trap but pricey, especially when you're trapped into purchasing two plus postage. Simply enter the words "repeater mouse trap" in the Amazon general search box, and you'll find the same trap (renamed) available from another dealer for eight bucks. Wish I'd seen it first.]
When my wife grew so impatient with my live-trapping attempts that she brought home a couple of those D-Con tilt-a-whirl rides-of-death disposables, I became determined to increase my efficiency to save the creatures. The green house and tip traps worked but erratically, catching one mouse at a time and breaking after several weeks use. And the metal Havahart trap practically requires the skills of a sapper (bomb defuser) to set the wires--too steep a learning curve, time-consuming, inconvenient (though it may be the "one" for experienced or patient trappers).
Enter the Victor Tin Cat. Nothing to set up. The directions even claimed bait is unnecessary (they're right--though I seem to catch fewer without it). I put peanut butter on a cracker, and the next morning saw 4 pairs of big eyes staring back at me. Moreover, unlike some of the other live traps, this one leaves the critters dry and comfortable, not drenched with perspiration and half-dead. Consequently, the tricky part of transferring them to a holding tank (from which many of them used to escape) before deporting them is unnecessary. Simply leave them in the trap (it makes a nice temporary home).
Both of my traps came coated with a slightly sticky lubricant. No big deal. Just to warn you it's not in your head. Also, one minor drawback of the trap is that it has two little "hideaways," and the new inhabitants quickly adapt to their fairly cozy digs, making it difficult to evict the tenants when it's time. After opening the top lid, I give them a minute or so to make their break for freedom, then turn the trap upside down and tap it, and am finally reduced to pulling the tail of the last hold-out or two (they'll still resist by grabbing tightly with their front paws). Perhaps a reason professional exterminators prefer a device like the Havahart.
What bugs me about the heavily advertised D-Con system is the emphasis on the human never having to view the animal. Simply spread some peanut butter on the bottom at night and throw it away--trap, contents, and all--in the morning. Now that's what I call the ultimate "denial of death." (And what a profit-maker for D-Con.) If you're going to kill them, do it right, and use it as a valuable preparatory lesson for the kids before the inevitable becomes inevitable.
