CatchmasterGluee Louee Rat Extra Large Traps 30-PK, Heavy Duty Glue Traps, Mouse Traps for Home, Pre-Scented Adhesive Glue Boards for Inside House, Snake, Mice, & Spider Traps, Pet Safe Pest Control

These glue traps work great for catching mice and even larger pests. The adhesive is strong, and the large surface area makes it very effective. I like that it’s non-toxic and safe for indoor use, with no messy cleanup or harsh chemicals. A dependable solution for keeping pests away!

We have an epidemic of extremely destructive voles this year. We had a box of glue boards from two years ago that we got for trapping rattlesnakes (not a success since dirt and dust rendered them ineffective quickly). So we thought we'd try them on the voles. We cut the boards in quarters and put a nail through the non glue edge to anchor them in the dirt by the vole trails. In less than two days we had over 100, in five days 175. We ordered another box which came today and the glue is even stickier (probably since it hasn't had time to dry out). This evening we trapped 41 in less than an hour and a half. Some of the quarter pieces had three voles each. We are very impressed at how well they work, HOWEVER, there are some limitations. Since we are using them outdoors, dirt, dust, grass, and weeds can ruin the sticky surface very quickly (we find that they are only effective for about a day). Also water will both ruin the backing paper and glue surface (our traps are all in small rock gardens). It is a job to police them regularly, and we find that they are most effective early in the morning and around sunset. The glue is also stickier the warmer it is and that helps too. We haven't had a problem with cats getting stuck to them even though they will steal live ones occasionally (this might be a problem if you used the whole board). The cost per vole is small but adds up when you have to use so many.

We had previously used the Victor glue boards for mice and crickets. However, due to a rotted crawl space cover, we got rats. The Victor boards were simply not sticky enough - we saw evidence that the rats broke free. We purchased this product, which is definitely much stickier. As a matter of fact, one got stuck to the bottom edge of the refrigerator, and we were not able to pull it loose! Be mindful of your pets when deciding where to place this product.Unfortunately, we did not catch any rats with this product - we finally cleared up the problem with snap traps - but I chalk it up to the fact that rats are rather clever, and recognized this as something dangerous due to their experience with the Victor glue boards.

Not Rat traps!! On the side of the box is written, "Catchmaster Mouse and Insect Glue Boards." Rat has escaped from three different boards. (smart mothers)The plus side is that they work 100% of the time against mice and insects. Good product. Incorrect marketing. Easy to use.UPDATE: Seriously INHUMANE for mice. I caught a mouse on Wednesday night, figured I would deal with it later. Forgot about it. Went back Saturday morning and the poor thing was still alive along with another mouse struggling in another glue trap. Use snap traps for mice. They work and they kill quickly.I bought these because I have a seriously smart big rat. Never gets caught in rat traps because of his size and his wits. He has been stuck to these glue traps and he finds a place he can squeeze through that will pull off the glue trap. Last night he put insulation over a trap to escape where he was cornered. !!! I never see him. Just too smart.

Work pretty well, but our local rats can get off of them, if given enough time, but they do leave a lot of fur behind.

Only the tail is stuck and can't move. The glue is effective and long lasting. I have had this for more than two years.

We love all CatchMaster sticky cards!!! These larger ones cover more surface area so you end up using fewer cards. For people concerned about their pets…Our cat got one stuck to her foot one time! She avoids them now like the plague!!! Your pet will learn as well! They are non-toxic so they should do no harm! Once you put the cards down at the cracks and crevices near your doors or around your refrigerator or dishwasher and see what nasties they catch, you’ll keep them around your house forever. They snag things we never would have believed were sneaking in and around the house. You’ll be appalled at what you don’t know!!!! The manufacturer needs to change the name…even though the larger ones were intended to capture larger furry nasties, they’re great for any creepy nasty crawling around. The cards will sometimes even catch flying nasties that land on the card. They’re incredibly stick, so keep your hands/fingers on the cardboard edges….or you’ll be stuck. Use Goo-gone to remove the residue when you get stuck. I’ve used goo-gone on socks to remove the adhesive, then launder your clothing!

These are SUPER sticky (I recommend installing with latex gloves). I went out on a limb in case I could catch squirrels with these. I did see tufts of fur, but they are too big to be *caught / trapped* in these. We hope they can keep mice from chewing thru the AC wires again.(Unfortunately I did catch a bird, which I felt terrible about, and doubt it survived based on all it lost and being very stuck to itself.)
