Title: I wanted these to work!
Product review: These looked so nifty! Especially as someone who's always afraid of getting snapped by the dumb traps, or the gross idea of emptying one! We bought two of these and put them in an area of the garage where we knew a mouse lived.He was very happy for the peanut butter treats, but those traps sat empty for 3 days, even though the missing bait proved that our mouse visited both traps frequently. We finally gave up and I let my kids set them off for fun. Armed with plastic forks they lightly tapped the triggers. Nothing. They whacked the triggers with the plastic fork handles. Nothing. Finally they pressed down on the forks hard enough to cause them to bend, and the traps finally went off.I'm not sure what kind of mutant mice these traps were designed to catch, but if it's big and strong enough to set off this trap then it's too big and strong for a mouse trap to kill.
