Product Description

The Procter Pest-Stop easy-setting metal mouse trap is a long-lasting and highly effective trap that is built from strong metal with a reinforced base. It is designed to last for many years and has a powerful strike due to its strong spring and solid structure.

The Pest-Stop easy-setting metal mouse trap is designed so that the mouse has to step on to the metal treadle to reach the bait. The treadle releases the wire at the slightest movement, ensuring that the trap has an exceptionally high strike rate. Mice tend to run along the walls of rooms so traps should be set at right angles to the wall with the treadle closest to the wall. In order to increase the strike rate, it is best to place un-baited traps in this position for a while before baiting so that mice become accustomed to the traps. Experience suggests that the most effective baits are peanut butter, chocolate or raisins. All that you need to do when you catch a mouse is hold the trap over a bin, lift the wire square, let the dead mouse fall into the bin and then re-bait and reset the trap. Keep the traps out of reach of pets or children by placing them behind furniture.

Procter Pest-Stop easy-setting metal mouse traps are manufactured by Procter Brothers Ltd, a UK company that has been making rodent traps for more than 100 years.

Manufacturer's Description
Procter Pest-stop Easy Setting Metal Mouse Traps are made by Procter Bros Ltd. The Pest-Stop easy set mouse trap is a long lasting powerful trap that is simple to set. This trap is constructed using strong metal that will last for many years and has a sensitive mechanism that can set the trap off at the slightest of touches.

The simple and easy setting design of this makes it probably the most effective metal mouse trap available. This metal based reinforced mouse trap is one of the most powerful on the market due to its strong spring and solid structure. The bait station area allows for easy setting and cleaning.

The mouse has to step on the metal treadle to reach the bait placed there so that even the slightest movement will set off the trap, ensuring an exceptionally high strike rate.

Experience suggests that the most effective mouse trap baits are peanut butter, chocolate or raisins. As mice tend to run alongside the walls of rooms, the traps should be set at right angles to the wall with the treadle closest to the wall. Placing un-baited traps in this position for a while can allow mice to become accustomed to them and so when the trap is baited and set, the strike rate becomes even higher.

Placing the trap behind furniture keeps them out of reach of pets or children. When a mouse is caught simply hold the trap over a bin, lift the wire square and the dead mouse will fall out. Then re-bait and reset the trap and, of course, wash your hands.
