I am an aminal lover. The thought of having any living thing suffer just breaks my heart. Has this ever failed and only injured the rat/mouse?

I have been using these devices for several years and it has never failed me. I too am an animal lover, and while I don't cherish the idea of taking a creatures life; I can't have them around the yard and my grand children. This was the most humane way I have seen to work the problem.

So far my two traps have only killed two rather large millipedes. However, my brother-in-law has used these traps to kill around 20 large field rats infesting his pool area. He says they expired quickly and certainly with much less drama than with a mechanical rat trap.

This is a very humane eliminator. I also don't want the animals to suffer and it has been our experience that they are dispatched within seconds. We actually saw a chipmunk enter and be gone immediately. You will not be disappointed.

No. I think the rat is smart not to get into the zapper, period. I know that because the bait in the zapper stays in tack no matter how long I set it out.

I don't really know the answer to your question, since I'm not dealing with a mice issue. But I think, it might be. It is extremely strong. It scared me away from consumption. So I can imagine that mice with their sensitive little noses might really be terrified of the smell. Good luck. Traudi

They eat it and are kind enough to go elsewhere to die. I've only found 1 dead rat in my large yard over lo these many years, and I can assure you I've had many more than a single rat around here! (Yuck!) Wherever they go, they definitely do not die inside the bait station.

Yes, there is! Redants CAN chew through. I've had it happen in my own garage. So, even though the vaults are tough, those varmints Can too! persistent mice and rats have gnawed through them. Slowly but surely.

I have a ferret and it's perfect for her. I think baby rats should be ok. Maybe not mice or hamsters because they might squeeze out.

We haven't had any problem with mice & this composter--and we do have mice. This is the best composter I've ever used and I've tried many. First or second composter--it's great.

Glad you asked. This has been mentioned with other products. My cat used to cry when I just got the rice cooker off the shelf.

I can't say yes or no. I was having a rabbit and ground hog problem, and for those animals it did work. Unfortunately, I soon ran into a problem with a "herd" or field mice that decided to ravage my garden. I can't say one or or another if the product attracted the mice, but who knows for sure.

Thats messed up, poor bat. That glue board is super sticky and holds. I use the glue boards flat and inside the tincat trap. But heres something I personally experienced. I placed a tincat trap with the glue board in it in a very mouse infested area just before night fall. Early the next morning I checked the trap, it was empty. There were so many mice caught that night that they urinated them selves loose from the glue. Of corse there was lots of fur too. But it seems that the glue can be loosened with worm soapy water. (the tincat is not effective without the glue boards)

You present a question which involves a matter of preference. No amount of advice or expertise can substitute for your personal choice in the matter.I will say that mice seem to have been successful for many hundreds of thousands of years living in both snowy and non-snowy conditions.

Can't rodents chew through anything that isn't metal? Actually, they would REALLY have to work at it. I don't see them getting through it, but anything is possible.

Honestly, I never kept mine long enough to even try... if you have mice problems, get a cat! That's the best advice I can offer because this thing is junk!

Dave-The one I got doesn't work with mice.......maybe it's made for "pack rats",let us know.Paul

I don't know how a rodent could get in it, unless it chewed a hole in it. I have not had a problem.

I've seen it used for ferrets before, and they survived. I know mice also have a sensitivity to those same woods, but I use it for all of mine and haven't had any problems. =)

I don't know about rats but since I've had these I haven't had mice or spiders. I would think it's definitely worth a try vs. the cost of an exterminator. Check out the return policy.

I was wondering the same question. I just got it for my 3 rats, the odor control is great but I caught them eating some. I'm worried about that. What's your experience with that litter? Thanks for hour help.
