Do you have an uninvited guest in your home, scampering about and leaving droppings in its wake? A Victor® mouse trap is an effective and economical way to capture these pesky rodents. Setting it up is simple, but there are a few key steps you need to follow to ensure success.
First, choose the right bait. Mice are attracted to a variety of foods, including peanut butter, cheese, and bacon. Once you’ve chosen your bait, apply it to the trigger of the trap. The trigger is the small metal bar that holds the trap closed. When the mouse takes the bait, it will press down on the trigger, releasing the spring and snapping the trap shut.
Next, place the trap in an area where you’ve seen mouse activity. This could be in a pantry, under a sink, or in a drawer. Once you’ve placed the trap, check it regularly. If you’ve caught a mouse, dispose of it humanely and reset the trap. With a little patience, you’ll be able to rid your home of mice in no time.
