First and foremost, the build quality of this trap is outstanding. The sturdy construction and durable materials used ensure that it can withstand the toughest of challenges. I've used other traps in the past that have fallen short in terms of durability, but the Havahart Rat Trap has proven to be exceptionally reliable.
One of the standout features of this trap is its humane design. It allows for the capture of rats without causing them harm, making it an ethical choice for those who prefer a humane approach. The trap's mechanism is efficient yet gentle, ensuring that the rat remains unharmed during the capture process.
Setting up the Havahart Rat Trap is incredibly simple. The clear instructions provided make it easy for anyone, even someone with minimal experience, to assemble and use it effectively. The trap's design also incorporates safety features that prevent accidental triggering, providing peace of mind while using it.
What sets this trap apart from others on the market is its exceptional performance. The Havahart Rat Trap is incredibly efficient at capturing rats, thanks to its sensitive trigger mechanism. I was amazed at how quickly and effectively it caught the rats, resolving my rodent problem in no time.
Furthermore, the trap's design allows for easy release of the captured rats. Its gravity-action door ensures a smooth and seamless release, minimizing any stress or harm to the animal. This user-friendly feature adds to the overall satisfaction of using the Havahart Rat Trap.
In conclusion, the Havahart Rat Trap is undoubtedly the number one live animal trap for a reason. Its exceptional build quality, humane design, easy setup, and outstanding performance make it a top choice for anyone dealing with a rat infestation. If you want a reliable and effective trap that prioritizes the well-being of the captured animals, the Havahart Rat Trap is the ultimate solution.
I put the device along the outside wall of the house, using a small spoonful of peanut butter in a tiny plastic cup as a bait. The first night I got a small mouse. The second day I rested, figuring out what to do with it. The 3rd night I got a big rat, the one I wanted to catch. That's an impressive 100% success rate. There were no false triggers. I am glad that I got this trap with a 6 to 7 inches opening. I'm sure the small ones with 1.5 to 2 inches openings will be too small for the rat.
It had been decades since the previous owner got rid of all the rodents quietly before we moved in. Maybe the climate has changed or there is something to do with the drought orders; they came back. I'm sure the house perimeter is secure because if there were any tiny breaches, the ant would have gotten in and overwhelmed us. Ants are always helpful because they always leave a long trail to tell you how they got in. The rodents must have come in from the roof. Indeed, I had one who fell from the central heating air intake duct, knocked off the screen that I duct taped onto the duct opening, died inside the central heating "room" and turned into a flat piece of dried mummy.
Along with poison and spring traps, I ordered this one because we have frequent visitors in the yard, mostly hares that I don't want to harm. After I caught the first mouse on the first deployment, I began researching what to do with it. I am surprised that the poisons are not an instant kill so there's no point to feed to the mouse I already caught. A slow painful death is not what I wanted in return for possibly dealing with their corpse rotting deep inside my loft. And if they die outside they are threats to the wildlife; the poison I got were classified as 2nd generation.
When I was a kid I saw a guy carrying a trap like this trying to drown his catch in a barrel of water by the curb. He thought it would be quick and easy but the rat refused to die. It became a tug of war; bystanders gathered to give him suggestions to end his predicament. Probably he wouldn't risk leaving his trap in the water and lost it. He also wouldn't want to take everything to where he came from when the rat was still alive. The scene didn't cause trauma inside me but I never forget about it.
For the same reason, I won't use the spring loaded death traps because I don't want to deal with the aftermath. To my surprise, I don't even know how these traps work before I ordered 6 of them. I never see how they catch rodents and I want to stay that way.
From my research, I can deal with prisoner number one in many ways. But the most humane way to ME is likely the CO2 gas chamber. This is close to my initial thoughts of throwing it a piece of poison and dropping it into the trash bin seconds after. At the end, I decided not to deal with death after all.
Now the research starts to be entertaining here and elsewhere. Some feel sorry for not keeping the rodents well fed before they have time to release them. A person went political, accusing liberals of not solving the problem and dumping the problem to other communities! A person claimed that she tried increasing distances and found that 5 miles is the distance that rodents do not come back to her house. I wonder if she food stained the rodents or she attached GPS tracking devices to them. Some research shows that the rodents will likely die if they are relocated even for 100 yards. Maybe that's the alternative fact you will need if you are caught releasing rodents near someone else properties.
After driving a few hours in the most remote part of the county, I picked a site that is about an 8 miles from my home. There are no homes along the road for miles on both directions. There are quiet roadside stops that I can carry out the release discreetly without being seen as creepy or illegal dumping. The scenery is good; I can always claim that is what I stop for.
Since the car trunk is where I put food after a grocery trip, I first put the trap into a cardboard box. Then I put the cardboard box into a large trash bag and tied it up securely. I do the same after the release. When I return home I rinse the trap with a high-pressure hose and throw away everything else in the collection bin. And since cardboard box of the right size is not easy to come by, I brought a plastic tote for prisoner number two. I preferred an air-tight tote but couldn't find the right size. I improved the tote that I got with a left-over weather seal just in case.
I didn't think that there is anything worth thinking about the release but I was wrong. In some youtube videos, you can see that mice are so fast that they can detect the trigger, feel that something is wrong, rush out of the trap like flying before the trap door is closed. In the middle of a gravel pavement, prisoner number one flew out of the trap, immediately made a u-turn passed me, and rushed toward the shade under the car. I do not know of its fate but if it got into the underside of the car, it could not have survived the return trip with 8 miles of winding country road at a speed limit of 65 mph. I released prisoner number two under the shade, with the sun and the car behind us. In contrast to number one, I had to bang the cage with the trap door to encourage this big guy to get out.
