Why we love it

Humane and quick kill mechanism.

Effective for large infestations.

Easy setup and use.
Main highlights

USE WITH CAUTION - This trap is extremely powerful and must be installed away from non-target animals. We recommend only placing within confined voids such as an attic or under floorboards. In addition, you must use a suitable box if used externally to prevent non-target access.
UNIQUE MULTI-KILL TRAP - Most traps work on rats applying pressure to a treadle plate; however, this rat trap instead requires the bait hook to be lifted before the trap is activated. This delayed action allows for more extended feeding and trust in the trap. In addition, this delay often results in fewer false triggers and often multi-kills, especially in areas of heavy infestations.
INSTRUCTIONS INCLUDED - We include instructions with our trap that informs the user how to use the product correctly. We also have a technical video showing the user how to set the trap, and we also offer backup advice and support if required.
HIGH STRENGTH RAT CONTROL - Do not confuse this product with other rat trap alternatives; this trap will kill all sizes of pest rats from small to large, and the powerful spring will result in a humane and fast kill with no suffering.
EASY TO USE - The trap is easy to use and requires no previous trapping experience. Initially, bait the central area with a suitable bait such as an apple for the bait hook and muesli as an attractant; set the trap by pulling on the bar, which will lock the trap into the firing position. Finally, place the trap within the activity area and monitor.
