I tried the regular wooden snap traps and the circular ones without success. The mice in my house are too smart for them. They spring the traps and make off with the bait. I don't know how they do it with the circular traps, but they do it.
As effective as these traps are, I had to be a little crafty with them in order to outsmart the mice. They love strawberry pop tarts. I started by placing some pop tart crumbs at the entrance without setting the trap and the next day they were gone. Again, without setting the trap, I put a few small crumbs in the entrance and a bigger one inside the bait cup. He gobbled them up too.
Thinking I'd finally lulled him into complacency, I baited the trap just like before, but this time I set it. Well, the smart little b*stard somehow made off with the bait without springing the trap. So my next step was to crumble the pop tart crumbs and pack them in the bottom so he would really have to work to get the crumbs out. By this time, he was comfortable enough with the trap that he wasn't afraid to really get inside the cup in an effort to get the bait. That effort was his ultimate undoing. RIP Mickey.
Since then I've caught a half-dozen more using the same method. These things work. |

| I was really displeased with the performance of this trap. One of these traps caught a mouse the first night it was out, but failed to actually kill the mouse. When I released the mouse into the trash bin, it limped around, still alive. I had to dispatch the mouse myself to put it out of its misery. I do not recommend this trap. |

| I have tried about every trap available today and none works as good as the old style hinge trap, I have tried tomcat, live traps, both dcon and tomcat circular traps, literally everything available in my small town. I was hoping this trap would at least be effective once, it just went off and upon inspection the peanut butter in the cup was completely licked clean, no evidence of the mouse. With the sorry traps on the market today you would be better off trying to make your own or buying a cat. None are sensitive enough to release the trigger for a mouse, I think most nowadays are made for rats. |

| Go figure. But if you're interested, look in my reviews for the traps that worked best for me. |
|
| Have used several types. This is about as close as you get to no-see-um mouse kills. Have a couple versions of the completely enclosed type and they sit empty while these keep catching mice. |
