Title: Mixed Luck
Product review: I've had mixed luck with these traps. In a previous house, they worked every time and I was able to get rid of 3 or 4 mice over the course of a year. My latest attempts have been less successful (maybe I have smarter mice?)It seems to be down to inconsistent manufacturing quality. A number of the traps need a little bending of the plastic in order for the doors to snap all the way closed - the friction created by the locking mechanism is enough to prevent the door from dropping completely. Others close fine, but also open rather easily. I found them tripped, closed and cleaned out of food. I'd say about 1 out of 6 that I owned worked well and the rest just worked as dinner trays for the mice.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
