POS Humane Mousetraps

Murpheeee

We have mice in the garage.
They chewed a hole in the bag of dog food out there, and left mouse poops behind.

So I go to get mousetraps.
I decided to try the "humane" traps.....when the mouse goes in to get the food, the trap tips forward closing the door, trapping the mouse......even has air holes!

So I set them all up yesterday with dog food in them, that they have come to love.
This morning, no food left and no mice :|

Guess they are gonna get the heavy duty "spring closed and kill your ass" type.
 
Why would anyone want to be humane to a disease infested rodent. Please, what are mice/rats good for?
 
those human ones are the sux0rs. I got rid of a family of the little bastards earlier in the year with the real traps. They worked great! Mice love peanut butter also.
 
The sticky ones work well; I assume the mouse just breaks its own back or something to try to escape.

But they work well.
 
Classic mousetrap rules ... except the splat. Perhaps glue traps better?

Dont use poison, don't want it to get stuck in the walls or something, though its extremely effective.

Target practice, shotputting, donations to McDonalds, catapult ammunition, cat food ...

The list just goes on.

Ha, humane mouse traps. A friend of mine had mice and decided to try the "glue the mouse to the pad" humane mouse trap. What he found the next day could have come from a Steven King novel. Several mice got stuck to the pad and proceeded to gnaw each other to death. The third and remaining mouse only had his back legs stuck and managed to chew one off and then used it's front legs to drag the whole mess across the floor in a bloody trail of carnage.

My advice: go with the tried and true spring model. You know, the kind that extrudes the mouse's inards out his poop-chute when it snaps down on his mid-section instead of his neck. Say, anybody up for some pasta with meat sauce?
 
I think I might have super mice. I use decon (<--spelling?) mouse poison. They are blue pellets. Well after a couple of days, instead of finding dead mice, I found blue poop pellets! :Q

LMAO, scary! 😀
 
We just found out that we have mice in the house. I saw it run across my room yesterday.

I have since kept my AK-47 airsoft gun locked and loaded 😀
 
I can vouch that the glue traps suck. We put them out around my job and the mice proceeded to chew their own legs off. Some would squeal constantly until a coworker drowned them in a bucket of water.

I will stick with the old fashioned wire traps.
