Little Nipper Mouse Trap (Pack of 2)

The basic mouse trap is little changed in design for over 100 years. It is inexpensive, flexible and the large area of the wooden treadle (the part that the mouse steps on to trigger the trap) makes it very effective.

Pack contains two individual Little Nipper mouse traps

'Build a better mouse trap and the world will beat a path to your door'. This is the original design. Mice tend to run along the edge of a room rather than across it. For best effect, therefore, set the traps along walls at right angles to the wall with the treadle closest to it. Alternatively set the traps in pairs, long-ways to the wall, with the treadles facing outwards. Placed like this the traps do not need to be baited as the mice will run across them rather than around them. Try to locate the traps in dark, out of the way places, such as behind refrigerators and cookers. If the trap is set underneath furniture or cupboards make sure that there is sufficient clearance for the trap to operate effectively once it has been sprung. Set the traps as finely as possible so that the trap will be sprung easily. Keep out of reach of children and pets. If you do choose to bait the trap use chocolate or peanut butter.
