Smart Rodent Detection – Pet & Children Safe, Updated Pyroelectric Infrared Sensor
Pet Safe Infrared Sensor & Rodent Entrance at the Side: The chamber is designed with infrared sensor & rodent entrance at the side. It only activates when it detects a rodent inside the trap; This prevents false zaps while protecting children and pets.
The trap is also equipped with an updated pyroelectric infrared sensor that detects body heat. When a mouse enters, the sensor wakes the system from standby, preparing it for action. As soon as the mouse crosses into the infrared zone, the trap is instantly triggered — ensuring precise and reliable capture. With this dual-detection system, the trap achieves high capture success rate under normal working conditions.
Note: the inside metal plate may appear a little bit “scratched”, which is our unique design to better conduct electricity. This does not indicates a defective/used product.

- Stacy5.0 out of 5 stars Very effective and safe for a chicken coopReviewed in the United States on August 20, 2025Style: 2 pack Electric Mouse TrapVerified PurchaseWe have a chicken coop with a mouse problem. These traps are very effective at catching mice, seem sturdy, super easy to set up, less messy than snap traps, also seem “more humane” as far as traps go, and a good price for two. I believe glue traps are evil. Don’t use those.
Catching 4 mice per day (we check traps a bit after dark, then set them again and check in the morning) is a slow way to address a mouse problem, so we set these inside the coop with the chickens, and snap traps in the area of shed that chickens and pets don’t have access to. Using both together has helped enormously. Once the problem is reduced we’ll keep setting these, but will also try an ultrasonic device to keep it under control. I anticipate that these traps will be helpful into the future, even on the occasion that our cat sets a mouse loose in the house. .
3 people found this helpfulHelpfulReport - Connie5.0 out of 5 stars Owltra vs VictorReviewed in the United States on December 22, 2024Style: 2 pack Electric Mouse TrapVerified PurchaseI’ve used Victor electronic mouse & rat traps for over 10 yrs. They’re VERY expensive, but definitely more humane & that’s important. I’ve been frustrated w/ them because they stop working before even going thru 2 sets of batteries. Many of those traps never make past 1 set of batteries. All the cleaning & treating them as good as can be doesn’t work! So I decided to try the 2-piece electronic Victor mouse traps since maybe if the part that holds the bait fails, it can be replaced cheaper than the entire trap & it would make cleaning easier too. But my orders have not been successful. I was sent the same old 1-piece traps instead, & when I tried to re-order the 2-piece traps, they just never came & I’ve been waiting since early Nov & over a month later still waiting for them to be shipped from Victor. So tried these Owltra mouse zappers in the meantime. Not only did they make it here in decent time, but they work so much better! So good in fact that I’m getting tired of seeing the green light flashing AGAIN & AGAIN. While waiting on the Victor’s to come, the mice have been nesting & I have lots of baby mice getting caught now. Thanks a lot Victor for all the additional killing of little critters I now have to do because of your slow/non order fulfillment. The Owltra’s just go & go & go! Even the bigger, fatter (pregnant) mice easily fit & go into Owltra traps, unlike the Victor mouse ones. In the past I had to use the Victor RAT size ones to allow for the pregnant & bigger mice to get in it (even more expensive & more dangerous for a pet paw to reach in & get shocked too). The owltra traps r made just right to put in a snack or cereal box to keep paws away from trap openings as well as easily slide into narrow places mice travel thru that the Victor is too wide to fit in. Another thing, the Owltra’s are also 2-piece w/ the batteries/electronics in the top piece that removes so the bottom piece can be soaked in water to clean. The entire bottom part is open for easy cleaning & baiting. As for baiting, I’ve used 1/4″ pieces of beef jerky for the strongest smell attractant w/o being wet & messy, I found that some goldfish flakes, dry dog or cat food nuggets, or bird food work best. Mice will come to these things w/o a hitch. Peanut butter, cheese, & crackers just don’t work well to attract mice to traps & tend to mess up the electronics w/ moisture & smearing. But now I’m sold on the beef jerky bits! Best bait of all. Trust me, I’ve had over 10 yrs experience w/ Victor’s electronic traps; bait matters! These Owltra’s don’t even need bait after the beef jerky has been used & that scent is in the trap along w/ the scent of previous mice being in the traps. The scents remain after the jerky is gone & keeps drawing more mice in to sniff around & u got ’em, no re-baiting even required! The scent of previous mice in a trap makes other mice consider it to be a safe mouse-friendly place to enter. So that matters too, & after the 1st catch, u have that scent in there which attracts more to enter. As for baby mice, it’s not unusual to catch 2 @ a time because the Owltra trap design is much different from the more size restrictive Victor trap. The Owltra’s cost less than the Victor alternative too. I’m an Owltra fan now! Good-bye Victor. I do have to say that the newer Victor mouse traps have much improved over the older ones tho! I’ll give ’em that! But the Owltra’s have outperformed Victor in real life usage for me in an old house in winter & in an area w/ large outdoor summer mice presence that come looking for a warm place to winter over in. Hope all this info helps someone. Please be humane tho!

Set up is extremely fast and easy, and within minutes the trap is armed and ready to catch and take out mice. All you need to do is put a little peanut butter inside which will lure mice in and shock them inside. The build quality is fantastic, and it has bright little green LEDs that indicate whether the device is armed or a mouse has been caught. It has safeguards to protect yourself which i really appreciate. It has ample space inside to catch mice of all sizes; and it’s extremely quiet too! Amazing value overall, would highly recommend!
4 people found this helpfulHelpfulReport - Mama Ash4.0 out of 5 stars Expensive but works betterReviewed in the United States on August 22, 2025Style: 2 pack Outdoor/Indoor Electric Rodent TrapVerified PurchaseI got this due to a rat problem by our trash. It had great reviews. So far only caught field mice. Easier to use then snap traps or sticky traps. I feel safer knowing my pets won’t get hurt using this. Works well. Alarm beeps when something is in it. Easy to clean, top comes right off. Battery life so far has been good.
3 people found this helpfulHelpfulReport - Alameda5.0 out of 5 stars It kills rats!Reviewed in the United States on July 29, 2025Style: Outdoor/Indoor Electric Rodent TrapVerified PurchaseIt works! I’ve had it set up a couple weeks and zapped 3 rats already. I put a few nuts in the little bait tray (didn’t want to put peanut butter, because that seems sticky and then I’d have to clean it). The beeping is loud, so when I come home from work, I just listen to see if I can hear it. My two dogs surprisingly have left it alone. The trap is not gross after the rat is zapped. So I have not had to do much other than dump the rat & refill the bait. I recommend it! Definitely better than those gross sticky traps!

SB82835.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely fantastic!!Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 27, 2025Style: Electric Mouse Trap 1 PackVerified PurchaseThis is very effective and I highly recommend it to anyone! Having recently gone through a mouse infestation of our garage (they found my stash of bird food!!), we needed to quickly control the situation. I originally bought one of these devices and was so impressed that a second one was purchased a few days later. We caught around 20 mice in a week and all were killed effectively. I’ll be honest, I was concerned that they wouldn’t be dead when the trap was emptied, but all were so it was certainly effective. Sometimes it was catching mice within 10 minutes of being put down! We set up a camera so we could monitor on our phone and be able to see the light which indicated that a kill had been made. So that was a great feature and really useful. The size of the trap is good, not too big and intrusive, but large enough for a large mouse. All in all, very impressed and well worth the money. Mouse problem solved!!

Report - Michael Plewman5.0 out of 5 stars Caught a HUGE rat.Reviewed in Canada on June 11, 2023Style: Electric Rat Trap 1 PackVerified PurchaseWe put this in a couple places in the house and one day my wife decided to put it in the babys crib (no baby inside) where she found some droppings. In the middle of the night I was confused as there seemed to be a flashing light in the room. I finally came to my senses and realized it was the TRAP! Oh man, there was 3-4″ of tail sticking out of it. I didn’t have the heart to open the trap so I held on to the whole trap and launched the rat into the forest.
2024-August Update: we have caught like 6-7 rats in this and each time we set the trap it probably takes a few days to catch one. We put it on the car seat inside the car as a rat got in my wife’s brand new subaru and was chewing the kids seat. BAM! Another dead rat. We have never even changed the batteries in this thing either. Such a good product. In fact I only changed the bait today after a year+ of use.
Report - Gazzasbees5.0 out of 5 stars Rat eliminatorReviewed in Australia on July 3, 2024Style: Outdoor/Indoor Electric Rodent TrapVerified PurchaseWell I have had this for maybe a week and got a huge rat 2 nights ago Update, and another last night . I had it set in the house and got nothing but the rats actually live in the shed and sneak into the house sometimes. So I baited with some sunflower seed kernels and set it in the shed last night, heard a beeping and found a huge rat this morning. It seems really well made and in summer I will set it outside to get rid of the rodents that eat my tomatoes. Easy to set and empty and will fit a big rodent in it. I like the idea of the usb power to use inside saving on batteries however apparently a set of D cells should knock off 60 rats. No more poison or snap traps here. Expensive, sure but effective- absolutely. Very good purchase. Update 6 September: The ratty head count here now is almost 20 , from huge ones to very small mice and still using the first set of batteries. This has caught the biggest rats I have ever seen here on the farm. I cant speak highly enough of this unit.
