Windhager Wire box rat trap 29.5x10.5x12.5cm

Animal-friendly live trap for mice and rats

Mice and rats are not welcome guests in your home. However, if you prefer not to kill them with a snap trap or poison them, this live trap is the ideal product. The animals are captured without being harmed and can then be released elsewhere. With a live trap, you act in harmony with nature while still ensuring a pest-free home. The DRAHTKASTEN trap is available in the following sizes, tailored to the size of the animals:

Mouse trap in size 13 x 5.2 x 5.2 cm

Mouse trap in size 16 x 7 x 5 cm

Rat trap in size 26 x 9.5 x 9.2 cm

How it works

At the back of the trap, there is a mechanism for placing bait, which can be chosen individually. A piece of cheese or chocolate works particularly well. It is important that the bait is securely attached to the sensitive mechanism; only then will the trap's door mechanism be triggered. When a mouse or rat enters the trap and nibbles on the bait, the entrance door closes, preventing the animals from escaping. Be sure to check the trap multiple times a day for any captures, so the animals do not have to wait too long to be released. Releasing them at a suitable location is done without contact via the lever of the spring door. The trap is then immediately ready for use again.
