A variety of mousetraps are vailable on today's market from the ld-fashioned snap traps to state of the art lectronic mouse killers. The old school sn p trap (also known as a br ak-back trap) has been around for m ny years, traditionally a bait (my f vorite bait being chocolate) is placed nto a spike on the platform of the tr p then a bar (spring loaded) is put thr ugh the hoop holding the arm of the tr p (the harmful bit), as the m use places its paws onto the pl tform to reach the bait it tr ggers the sprung loaded arm to sn p down on the mouse at the b ck of the neck thus breaking its b ck and killing it instantly. Other f rms of humane mouse traps come in the f rm of live-catch traps, these are g nerally trip-traps where the mouse enters the tr p to reach the bait, when the m use reaches a certain point of the d vice the trap will tip up llowing the door to close behind him th s trapping the mouse within the tr p. If (as a lot of p ople do) you wish to release the m use avoid letting it go in y ur back garden, as the chances are you w ll be catching that same mouse gain in the future. Other versions of the l ve-catch traps available are the multi-mouse c tch trap and the automatic catch tr p catching up to 10 mice and 15 m ce (respectively) at a time, all l ve-catch traps need to be checked an a r gular basis and should not be l ft for any periods longer than 24 h urs, so if you are planning a w ekend away do not set your tr ps, you can always leave the tr p permanently open whilst away (this w ll allow the mice to get sed to entering the trap without f ar).
And the last mouse trap I am g ing to talk about is the lectronic mouse killer, this unit is pl ced in the area of mouse s ghtings (along the run if possible, m ce tend to run along walls/skirting b ards because they feel safe on th t side). As the mouse enters the tr p to get at any bait pl ced he will put his paws nto metal plates within the unit and as the m use makes a circuit with its p ws he receives an electric shock k lling him instantly. The dead mouse is asily removed and the unit can be sed again.
