The Victor Safe-Set Mouse Trap was designed with safety in mind. The Safe-Set feature was engineered to prevent accidental triggers while still keeping the elimination clean and humane. Not only is it safe for use around kids and pets when used as directed, it is also easy to use regardless of your experience level. Add a high protein bait to the refillable bait cup, then set the trap with just one click! Place the activated trap into a location with rodent activity. For your convenience, the unique bait hood eliminates bait theft. The Safe-Set Trap also offers a 100% catch and kill rate. The high side walls prevent mice from entering from anywhere but the front, ensuring the mice are properly oriented for a quick, humane kill. When mice approach for a treat, the trap immediately springs closed to eliminate the pest on contact. All that's left to do is dispose of the rodent and clean the trap so it's ready to use again and again. With another quick click you can easily release and dispose of the rodent. Refill with bait and continue trapping to achieve a mouse-free home.
