Title: We've trapped plenty of mice with these
Product review: We live deep in the woods, with all the country mice. We bought our first Tin Cats from a catalog aimed at Amish and Mennonite folk, if memory serves. We had excellent luck with them. They do deteriorate over time and can be hard to clean if you happen to leave them stored in the basement and don't know a mouse crept in (store them in a sturdy bag to prevent this). So we got the plastic and polyurethene version the second time we ordered. We had much less luck with these -- can't really say why.So we're switching back to the galvanized metal version with the solid metal top. You have to listen out -- you'll hear the mouse scurrying around inside . So it's best to use them in well-traveled (by humans) areas of your house, like the kitchen or pantry. If your purpose is to be humane.I'd guess we've caught 50-plus mice with these. Of course, there might be some repeaters. So when you take them out to release them -- drive at least a half-mile away. :^)
