How the Automatic Mouse Trap Works

This 'walk the plank'-designed mouse trap is engineered to be significantly more reliable than standard flip traps. The platform stays locked until the mouse reaches the front section where the bait is placed. Only when the mouse reaches all the way to the bait is the mechanism released and the mouse falls into the bucket. The trap then resets automatically and is ready for the next catch.

Superior to a Standard Flip Trap

  • Standard flip traps start tilting too early → mice sense danger and back away
  • This model locks the platform until the mouse is too far out to escape
  • Catch-proof, resets automatically and is extremely effective
  • Recommended by Shawn Woods (renowned mouse trap tester)

Perfect Fit for Buckets

The trap is compatible with buckets that have a maximum rim width of 12 mm. For live catch, a bucket of at least 50 cm depth is recommended so that mice cannot jump out.

Materials and Durability

  • 3D-printed in PETG
  • Stainless steel axles
  • Internal metal counterweight for automatic reset
  • Designed for long-term use

Perfect for Live Catch

You can use the trap for both live catch and elimination depending on how you prepare the bucket. No poison is ever needed, making it safe for children, pets and the environment.
Note that it is prohibited to use water in the bucket for elimination purposes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it safe for kids and pets?

Yes! Because this trap uses no toxic poisons, harmful glue, or dangerous snap mechanisms, it is completely safe to use around children, cats, and dogs.

Does the mouse trap work for rats?

No, this model is optimized for mice. Rats are too large and heavy for this trap.

Which bucket works best?

A standard 10–20 liter bucket works excellently. For live catch, a bucket depth of at least 50 cm is recommended.

Which bait works best?

Peanut butter or the inside of a Snickers bar is superior. It stays in place for a long time and attracts mice effectively.

How many mice can be caught per night?

It varies depending on activity, but it is actually the size of the bucket that sets the limit.

Can the trap be used outdoors?

The trap must not get wet to maintain its function, so it is recommended for indoor use only.
