Effectiveness

Pros:

  • "These are hands-down the BEST sticky traps we ever used."
  • "These traps work well but... I suggest additional bait using any type of food the rodent has already eaten if possible."
  • "These traps work. I put peanut butter in the middle. They are big enough that the mouse can't get off of it."
  • "This pad is trapping all the pests! Mice, spiders, chipmunks, shrews."
  • "I caught 3 mice at the same time only using one board."
  • "We use these in our barn, and go thru 8 to 10 a week. They are very effective, even catching large rats."
  • "I receive Ed my package of 12 yesterday, and I set out 4 of them in areas I’ve seen droppings in my garage. Woke up this morning and found 1 was caught! Very pleased with this product!"

Cons:

  • "These xl 'traps' don't work! I've had them for 3 months now & haven't caught Any mice."
  • "The glue did not hold, placed them overnight and all I found this morning was hair- ratatouille lives another day….. crappy glue."
  • "They are not sticky enough, and became dry to the touch after 2 days."
  • "Mouses we’re able to walk over the non stick part so wasn’t effective to catch while away from home."
  • "These suck they do not work put them out last night two of them had mice trapped for a minute then the mice were able to get away."
  • "For whatever reason the adhesive does not seem strong enough to actually catch the rats that come in contact with the trap."
  • "I have 2 medium-sized rats they get caught flop around on them and spring right off I watch them on my ring camera guess I’m going to have to upgrade."

Usability

Pros:

  • "Easy to use. Safe around pets."
  • "I would have to say that these traps are a lot easier to use then those old fashion wooden traps."
  • "It is easy to set up by just leaving it to the path where the mouse going through and remove it after catching them."
  • "These are very large and perfect for a jumping mouse/little rat about the size of a tennis ball."
  • "So much better than paper traps. If a mouse is caught on it, you can cover it with another trap like a sandwich."
  • "These sticky pads are far superior than any other sticky traps I have used."
  • "If you are having a problem, don't hesitate to order these, you won't regret the cost! Easy to use, clean and remove, with good quality adhesive."

Cons:

  • "I placed them along baseboards but it failed to catch the rodent."
  • "These have a huge lip the pest would have to climb over."
  • "Half of the traps got stuck together because of the way they are packed."
  • "I wish there was a better feature to scoop up the trap once the mouse is caught."
  • "I kept finding droppings on my trap like the rat was just hanging out and having a party on it."

  • "Thanks to these traps, the entry of insects and reptiles into the house is greatly prevented."
