Works like a charm - with bait!*
I had caught about a dozen mice with a variety of plastic traps and they worked - until the beasts learned to chew through them. So I decided I had to go steel and picked this one. Caught four the first day, then two the next! The seventh took another couple days but I haven't seen the vermin since. BTW, I never post reviews because I'm too lazy, but I had to here. Read on for a few pointers: 1. Use bait, but you only need a pea-sized dab of peanut butter on the removable, washable panel. Spread it a bit so the smell gets out easily. Their claim of "no bait needed" is technically true, but the smart money is on saving up rather than winning the lottery. 2. I had to move it to different locations to get that last booger because my basement has a lot of hiding places. 3. You'll have to keep using it if you don't plug up the holes in your foundation or siding where they come in. Around the time I used this, I plugged up a hidden hole that we watched them go into. I'm sure this helped immensely. 4. We were just tossing them across the road so there were two ditches for them to traverse. We started driving them 3/4 miles away so they had even more of adventure once they departed Shangri-La (I swear one of them was smiling as we ejected it from the Cheerios). I'm pretty sure this helped a lot. 5. Check early, check often. This product was great for a family or two of mice. Gathered them nicely, humanely, no nastiness except cleaning the shiny steel product, which was easy with water and toilet paper. The bait wasn't the problem when it came to cleaning up. *Update: One night we had a bunch of people over so I didn't check it. The next day, I found 2 black mice (I was always catching grey mice before). Let's just say that it was more like 1.75 mice. Or maybe a 1.25-mouse creature and a 0.75-mouse creature? Anyway, it was a pretty nasty cleanup. Maybe it was the breed of mouse that was different. However, this applies to any of the "live" traps - gotta keep checking them or they die. I've been religious about it since and haven't found a mouse in a week or two. Still 5 stars.

Great critter trap!
We ordered two and one came without a wind-up handle and has to be returned, but I immediately set the good trap with some birdseed as bait that night and by morning had three voles in the trap! Works like a charm! Re-set the trap and by the afternoon had two more! I have put a white post office envelope over the top of the trap to reflect the sunlight so that critters in the trap don't bake in the heat of the day until I can check it and release them. The voles are decimating our garden so this seems to be the first thing that has worked when all the other baits and traps have not. Wish I had two traps, but just one is making a dent in the overpopulation of these voles.

Love it and hate it
This trap has been very useful in getting rid of several mice at once. It is so easy to set and no need for bait. However, many times I come to check the trap and there is one live mouse and several other mice cannibalized and stuck to the bottom of the trap. Very gross to have to clean out. Now I am finding mice with their head stuck in the door mechanism. Like it’s not working as well anymore. If you just want to get rid of several mice fast and don’t mind coming across a massacre every now and then you’ll be fine. But if you want a humane trap this might not be for you.

Traps consistently injured mice
The traps I purchased did not work as advertised here on Amazon. I purchased two of these traps specifically because they are advertised as a humane solution to removing mice from my garage. The traps caught 6+ mice but every time the mouse would be trapped by the spinning mechanism and left hurt/bleeding. Most of the time, the trap would catch the mouse's tail between the metal curved piece which spins around and the side of the trap. The mouse would be inside the trap but unable to move as the trap door would dig into its tail harder as it tried to pull free. Releasing the mice was a fun game requiring me to put my hands into the trap to move the trap door enough to release the mouse's tail. The last time I used one of these traps I found a mouse had been trapped in the mid-section of its body by the spinning metal door. It died there unable to free itself not to mention the internal injuries. (I will spare everyone the picture I took of this incident as it isn't pleasant.) The traps look fairly well made so the issue wasn't one of sloppy construction/assembly. To avoid frequent injury to the rodents, my guess is that the spaces between the spinning door and each side of the trap must be smaller. At least with my traps, that space was perfect for catching and pinning the mice there until I freed them. I may have received traps that were constructed properly as I only have a sample size of two. However, buyers of this product should at least be on the lookout for this issue as it could be a design issue or recurring problem in manufacturing.

Selten vergebe ich eine 5 * Wertung mit so viel Überzeugung. Die Falle macht was sie soll und das auf eine sehr effektive Art und Weise. Selbst das Gewicht von jungen Spitzmäusen reicht aus, um den Mechanismus zu aktivieren. Auch große dicke Feldmäuse werden gefangen, ohne das Teile vom Tier eingequetscht werden. Die Populationen werden stark reduziert. Auch das Aussetzen ist kein Problem. (Bei mir ca. 60m Entfernung an einem Bach). Zusammenfassung: Eine humane und sichere Art, Mäuse in der Umgebung stark ein zu schränken.
