Rodent Control Slide Bucket Lid Mouse, Flip N Slide Rat Trap, Safe Mousetrap Catcher Humane Suitable for 5 Gallon Bucket Compatible, Easy Set-up & Cleanning for Indoor & Outdoor

Excuse the image quality its hazey CCTV image taken from a monitor and then Screenshot. However I wanted to show the mouse caught within 1 hour of putting the trap in my attic.I received the Trap in 2 days of ordering it - FantasticIt came packaged well in a nice box. GreatIt required a small bit of finicky clicking together on a solid surface, but once together feels sturdy.Finally the bucket youll need a bucket around 30-31cm diameter at the top, I had a few plastering gypsum buckets left over from a plaster job i did a few months ago. The fit perfectly for this application.So i put the lid all together, I immediately 'balanced' the lid by hot gluing a washer to the underside of it and tapping the nose end to see how much force it needed to drop a mouse in. took washer off put a smaller one on as i felt it was too much force and wouldnt get the smaller ones. Anyway then i added the peanut butter. Got some Tesco ones with the nuts, not the smooth stuff. I felt it was more aromatic. A good teaspoon put on the underside of the nose of the black dropper and a tiny bit on the nose should be enough. I tested the weight again and it turns out adding the peanut butter unbalanced it again. So i added back in the heavier washer with the hot glue again and then tested the balance. Perfect!! slight touch on the hose and it slid open.put the lid on the container dropped it in place in the attic on a flat piece of MDF square and then set up the ladder, i rubbed the smallest whiff of peanut butter half way up the ladder then on the underside at the top. So it entices them up to the lid. use only the oil residue for this not alot as dont want them feeding well there.Placed everything down, put a piece of paper on the side of the lid so it gets knocked off if the lid opens and i set up CCTV. checked it an hour later and the paper had fallen off. Replayed the CCTV and the mouse was caught easily.Superb , great value for money, needs someone with some glue and a tad bit of cop on to balance it nicely for their use case and it works a charm. delighted!I think anyone that hasnt caught anything has not bothered balancing it, the food is weighing it down or they have no mice :) Take a bit of time and youll have it perfectly setup.

Ok so some time later this has not caught a single rat. The problem is where the back of the black trapdoor part is it should be flush with the rest of the lid but it isn't, it's about 1cm lower so any rat is put off walking on to bit of trap further in as the first bit is already loose and moving up and down so all in all a waste of time. See my other review for 2x rat traps that actually work.This hasn't been used to trap yet and I will update if successful or not but here is a link for a bucket I bought from Amazon that is almost perfect fit https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B016MPKG64?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_detailsIt is quite fiddly to put together, I think the tiny notches for the vertical yellow parts need to be slightly enlarged with tip of a knife so they slot together better. Also the middle join of ladder is very flimsy and needs stabilising. I have very bright rats apparently so I'm taking this slow, I've had bucket only out on it's side for a few days with food in which they wouldn't touch at first but now are. Now I have put lid out on ground with trapdoor taped up so it won't move with food on, next will be taped lid on bucket with ladders and then when I know they are happily climbing on to lid to eat I will untape trapdoor and fingers crossed will catch some. I will update then but figured people would want to know about the bucket sooner if looking. Wish me luck......

Flip lid mouse trap was flimsy but ok. Worst part was it didn’t fit the 5 gallon bucket that was recommended to purchase with it.A load of faffing and got it to work. Bad idea separating the lid and the bin. Sell both together!!

I saw the reviews that said this was flimsy and from China. I wanted to buy an American one, but their reviews also said not genuine and flimsy and £30 more! But I liked how this worked, and knew I could not face loading and releasing a normal trap. So inspired by another review on this product that said it was fine with DIY modifications, I took the plunge. The Bucket is VERY hard to buy. You just need a round 30cm top, but nobody makes them. So I found a planter from B&Q. details in first photo. It's not as big a volume as they suggest - but WAS perfect for mice. Then I made the ladder rigid by adding a bit of cane on some ties. Attached the ladder and it snapped straight away but stayed in place and will be fixed with tape if need be. Added a 1p coin with blue tack to the underside of the black tipper . See where I put a leaf - that's where the coin needs to be ie underneath. Smeared peanut butter under yellow nose. Filled 1/3 with water. Got 2 mice first night, 4 next night. V V happy. And because its a planter and doesn't have a lip for the yellow lid to clip too, I put 2 bricks on top to weigh the yellow bit down and stop any clever mice wanting to lift the lid and get out- probs not necessary but reassured me! JOB DONE

did not work so well for me considering the price.may work for others as I can see the potential.

I bought this and the bin recommended to go with it in good faith. As you can see by the photo is too small to fit on the bin and falls inside. None of the 5 gallon buckets around my house fit either..

Cheap plastic, ill fitting, poorly made. The platform floor that is supposed to slide the mouse into the bucket either came off too easily or got stuck on the edge. My husband made modifications to make it work properly. We tried, peanut butter, cheese and biscuits, but to no avail. There was plenty of poo droppings evidence that the mice were on and around this bucket, but this product doesn’t catch the mice - DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY

We have had more success with this than anything else and we have tried a lot. Easy to release them once caught .
