Will this trap catch more than 2 mice at a time?

The trap has a door on each side. This permits the mouse to enter either side. Once inside, the mouse goes to the center of the trap to feed off of the bait tray. When any pressure is put on the tray, the doors are simultaneously released and locked. No other animal can enter at this time until trap is reset. The picture shows the doors down and latched. This trap works great!We use uncooked oatmeal as bait. It is easier to clean and they love it. Hope this helps.

This trap will only catch 1 mouse or chipmunk at a time. If you have a mouse infestation, a water bucket trap may work better (although heartless).

Not likely. It's big enough to, but they would both have to be in the trap at the same time when one of them stepped on the pan-trigger which is in the center. The doors (on both ends) drop down so the second mouse would only have to be in a little ways.

I can't say yes or no. I was having a rabbit and ground hog problem, and for those animals it did work. Unfortunately, I soon ran into a problem with a "herd" or field mice that decided to ravage my garden. I can't say one or or another if the product attracted the mice, but who knows for sure.

We had the same issue- worked great at first, we're catching 3 at a time, but then same as you. I think the latch was sticking. Unfortunately we ended up having to get a pest control in :/

No, for larger rodents get The Better Rodent Trap, http://www.intruderinc.com/collections/better-pest-control-solutions/products/the-better-rodentrap

Some mice are just smart. No trap works on all of them. With the MiceCubes, the main way a mouse gets around them is by turning them over before they go through the door. That way the door stays open. Putting a soup can on top of the trap should eliminate that from happening. And of course, you're going to occasionally get some "Super Mice" who actually go in, eat and then can somehow get that door back open and get out or some that chew their way out. If you're having that kind of trouble, try a different kind of mouse catcher like a metal multi catch trap or the smart mouse trap(both are humane catch and release traps.) Not all mouse traps work on all mice. Simple as that. Fortunately there's a few different styles so if you're dealing with a super mouse, one of the styles will likely be his kryptonite. Some mice and their ability to escape from traps is nothing short of amazing. I swear some of these guys wear capes!

Yes, there were 4 traps that arrived in one package. Once I opened the packaging there were 4 traps in there, although it didn't initially seem there were going to be 4 in the little package.I do want to tell you I have caught 8 loose gerbils with them (don't ask) but two of them died because I think they were in the traps too long. So I want to stress that the traps need to be checked frequently if you want a live rodent. Good luck.

Unfortunately we had a female field mouse that had pups in our house. I'd guess the pups are about 2-3 weeks old and are very small. You'll have no problems catching them with this trap! None have escaped mine yet. :)

Yes. Mice caused several false alarms with our system. We solved that problem with mouse traps. PiSector sells special motion detectors that are reportedly insensitive to small animals.

This trap works very well if you are up against just one mouse at a time. A nest of them in the house will result in the trap door being reopened giving the earlier captures a chance (but not always) to escape. Just be patient, they eventually slip up or set two traps at a time. It is worth it to see the look on their faces when you do catch them and they can see the look on yours through the clear door !!

It should be good for rats, as they are similar in size to the squirrels that we use the trap on. I think mice might be a little small though.

Yes. The best trap I have ever gotten. Just have to be careful of spilling them.

Thank you for your question. Victor makes a smaller trap for mice. I have used this trap for chipmunks and ground squirrels (no rats up here). I have used both mouse and rat traps in the past, but have never had two animals at the same time. However, depending on your infestation, you may find yourself emptying it multiple times in one day.

It is very small unit. We did not use due to our "mice" or rats being too big. I would think only one at a time, even if they are truly mice.

I believe this size trap is too big for mice. They either dont trip the bar or they slip through the mesh. Mine traps chipmunks successfully so I image it would trap like-sized rats.

I believe it should be capable of catching mice; but, not certain about the wire spacing and whether it would prevent the mice from squeezing through. I loaned cage to friend so I can't really measure the wire spacing and give you a good response.

Definitely. I would suggest buying glue traps and attaching them inside a long box. So much cheaper and just as effective. I think mine worked because a mouse got trapped first and the snake went in after it. May seem cruel but live bait will attract Mr. Creepy a lot faster!

No. It may catch a few, but your best bet would be to strain with a fine sieve after milling.
