Are there air holes? I want the mouse to be able to breathe.

There are a few holes, but we felt it was too few, do we used a small bit on a light weight drill and easily put at least 8 more across the top and felt very good about the breathability afterwards. I still checked on them several times each day, and it was very easy to release the mouse afterwards. I think with the extra holes, the next big concern would be water, so you'd want to check often. Good luck!

You can drill more holes in it if you want, but the sides of the door are slightly smaller than the opening, so there is plenty of air in there for them. But you definitely want to release the mice within 12 hours. Longer than that is hard on them. If they die in the trap it's not due to suffocation, but either stress or starvation, both due to the mice being left in there for too long.

It doesn't need air-holes because the air comes in around the door. I put them out before bed and check them in the morning... they are a little steamy from them being in there breathing, but they have plenty of air for the short time you have them in there... I have never had one seem off-put by an air issue... usually they're just curious as to where I am taking them! LOL! :D

No air hole. Its not air tight though . I once set the trap on Friday morning & has forgotten to check on it till Monday evening. Found the mice still alive inside., ableit sluggish

There are small air holes in the bottom of the trap door. They have plenty of air in there and it gets steamy in there during hot weather. Don't ever put trap in the sun.It will kill the mice forthwith.

There are a couple tiny holes on the door, but I recommend you add more. I used a drill bit about the size of the 4 that are already there and added a bunch all around the trap. Plus, it will only aid in the mouse smelling the PB faster if you drill some at the opposite end of the door.

The swing door is designed to allow air. It does not seal and has holes drilled in it as well, so they would be able to breathe fine. The limiting factor is water. I strongly suggest checking the traps at least every 24 hours.

The cooling pad is generous, but it is not designed for a mouse. If you look closely at the image, the mesh is for free air movement. You might want to go with one that has solid surface space on the sides. Remember, however, that you are then sacrificing cooling ability. My laptop's fan is on the far side, so I had to have this full mesh set-up. The mouse issue is not really that important to me since I usually work it farther off to the side to avoid repetitive motion injuries.

The valves have a plug but there is no hole to pump the air. Can anyone please confirm if a hole needs to be created again or did I miss something

Yes, there are holes in the center. This product was phenomenally effective in ending our rodent infestation

try inside the mouse....where the batteries go...there is a little slot in there for it

It doesn't actually have air holes, but instead parts of it are made with a mesh that both allows airflow and the visibility of your pet. I'd say nearly half of the carrier consists of this mesh. My cat gets overheated easily but this allows him to get plenty of cool, fresh air.

It is in the between the top and bottom layer, the mouse pad is also in there too :)

No air holes. There's another model which is designed for air flow. Sorry I don't know the model number off hand but you'll find it if you look. ;)

Not really, the mouse can fit there, but there is not enough room to actually move it around.

Yes air should move enough and is quiet running. I would ensure vent in/out hole was there.

Yes, there's a small round rubber seal that covers the hole. I think this is so they can breathe when they get too hot or cold.

Hello, I have never had a problem with it over heating but I am also not constantly online. If you are constantly online then I am assuming it might become there are no holes for ventilation. Hope that helps

Nope. Also if it starts to get dirty I clean mine with windex, that keeps the gunk off my mouse

You can rotate them either way to blow air in or out. I placed my both ways for circulating air around the graphics card.

The surface is partially cover with small holes. I don't know how well the mouse will do on that area. But you can use a small mouse pad. That will solve the problem.

Sorry. Can't live without my mousepad. Try contacting the manufacturer. Sometimes they are more than willing to help.

There is a velcro closure on top that allows for some ventilation. I have never used it, however.
