Use electronic traps for clean, no-touch kills

What to Do

Place electronic traps along walls where you see droppings or gnaw marks. Bait with peanut butter. The trap delivers a high-voltage shock when a rodent enters the chamber, killing it quickly and cleanly. A light indicator signals when a catch has been made.

Why It Works

Electronic traps offer a humane, quick kill without the mess of snap traps. Sensor technology detects entry and delivers an instant lethal shock. Some models hold multiple mice before needing to be emptied. The enclosed chamber is safer around children and pets than exposed snap traps.

Tips

• Cost: $25-50 each, significantly more than snap traps but reusable
• Best for indoor use only — moisture can cause malfunctions outdoors
• Still requires multiple trap placements for effective coverage
• Check daily and dispose of dead rodents wearing rubber gloves
• Battery-powered models need fresh batteries to maintain lethal voltage
