Mouse Trap Top Hole Entry (Set of 3)

Mouse Trap Top Hole Entry (Set of 3): Galvanised Wire Multi-Catch Live Mouse Trap

This set of 3 top hole entry mouse traps is a simple, poison-free way to catch mice, with each trap able to hold several mice at once. Instead of snapping shut on a single mouse or relying on baits, this is a multi-catch live trap: mice are drawn to the bait, climb in through the one-way top hole entry, and drop into the cage below where they can't get back out. Because it catches without killing, it is a humane, family-friendly option that avoids the risks of poison baits and snap traps around pets and children, and each trap can be used over and over again.

The top hole entry design is what makes it so effective. The funnel-style opening at the top lets mice in but not back out, so the trap keeps working and catching mouse after mouse until you empty it. That multi-catch ability is a real advantage during a mouse plague or a persistent infestation, where single-catch traps need constant resetting. Getting three traps in the set lets you cover several problem areas at once, indoors and out.

Each trap is made from quality rust-resistant galvanised iron wire, so it stands up to repeated use and holds up outdoors as well as inside. It is easy to bait, set, inspect and release, and built to last for years rather than a single season.

How to Use

Place a small amount of bait such as peanut butter, seeds or grain inside the trap, near or below the top hole entry, then set the trap on a flat surface along a wall or in a corner where you have seen mice or droppings, since mice travel along edges rather than out in the open. Mice climb in through the top hole to reach the bait and drop into the cage. Check the traps regularly, at least daily, so any captured mice are not left for long, then release or deal with them and re-bait. Set out all three traps in different problem spots for the best coverage.

Getting the Best From It

• Place traps against walls and in corners. Mice run along edges, so traps set flush to a wall catch far more than ones out in the open.

• Bait with something sticky or aromatic. Peanut butter, seeds or grain work well and are hard for mice to grab and run with.

• Check them daily. As a live trap, it should be checked at least once a day so captured mice aren't left distressed.

• Use all three. Spreading the traps across different active areas catches more than relying on a single trap.

Frequently Asked Questions

Mice are drawn to bait inside the trap, climb in through the one-way top hole entry, and drop into the wire cage where they can't get back out. It catches several mice at a time.
