What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
These are as effective as the old school wooden snap traps and in fact are better because you don't have to fuss around with a fiddly arm thing that might go off and hit your fingers. I recommend these traps to anyone who has a mouse issue.
Use them in the garage, had a couple in my kitchen cupboards. Easy to just pick it up, nothing hard here. They're reusable if needed.
Instant kill, as humane as it can get, i guess. Smart mice in my house. But those dang critters get in somewhere!
These traps work well with chunky peanut butter. I use hazelnuts as bait, but peanuts or any nuts will work. No need to worry about bait placement.
Cons
These are terrible. Although better to setup than the old fashioned traps but not dependable. I will not be ordering from this seller again.
The red plastic part of the trap * to the bottom when set off. This means that if a mouse approaches the bait from the side and sets off the trap, all that happens is that the side goes over its neck when the trap snaps.

Packaging/appearance
They are easy to clean and re-use.
I put 2 fruit loops in the bait tray, no muss no fuss!

The small plastic catch on the underside will eventually wear making the trap “touchier” or break off altogether making it impossible to set but that does not happen before a large number of kills like 50
