This is a seasonal ritual at our house. I hear the mice move in with the cool weather and I get out the mousetraps. A tiny bit of peanut butter in the bait cup and they are caught. If I don't get all of them with the trap the rest seem to move on to safer pastures somewhere else after enough of their buddies have been killed.”

I would like to thank your company for making the "perfect" mouse trap. I have tried at least 20 other trap brands and they have all had various degrees of success, but none work as well as yours. My daughter bought me six (6) of your mouse traps for my birthday and after setting all of these traps around two of our properties, I was amazed at the response. Best traps I have found on the market.”

Within thirty minutes or less of placing the Snap-E® Mousetrap, I had a dead mouse. I used some candy a mouse had eaten into as bait. I am ordering six more. These traps work! I have had about twenty of the old wooden ones sitting out around the house for three week and caught NOTHING!”

I'm catching mice every night in my greenhouse with these Snap-E® Mousetraps. They are so easy to set that I don't even flinch any more as I reset them - they never snap while they are being set. I've tried lots of different brands of mousetraps and these are far superior to the rest.”
- Mark Parsons

I love being able to catch multiple mice with one setup. This way I can let it sit for a couple days and catch multiples. The Ketch-All® Multiple Catch Mousetrap is the best mousetrap I've found. I'll be buying several more.”
- David Benn

You guys are great! Just a note to say 'Thank You' for the 2 Metal Lid Replacements for our Mousetraps. A great benefit was when I saw 'Proudly' made in America. That is what America is made of and we need to get back on track with showing the world! Great products, made by great people who back up what they produce! Look out mice... 2 traps back in service. Thank you!”
- Janine Hatt

I have set thousands of these traps while running Thoroughspect and have never found a better trap ever. The traps are exactly what a mousetrap should be in that they are fast-reacting, easy to set and release. In addition, they have a visible yellow bar that can be seen in crawl spaces and attics to see if they have been triggered.

Mouse Traps vs. Poison: Choosing the Smarter Tool

Rodents don't belong in facilities, homes, or workspaces. But once they get in, how you handle them matters. Poison might seem like the obvious solution, but for professionals who need consistent results without added risk, traps offer more control, flexibility, and long-term value.

What Poison Gets Wrong

Rodenticides depend on the rodent taking the bait, and even then, you're left with questions. Did it eat enough? Where will it end up? How long will it take to work?

Poison often leads to:

Unpredictable outcomes
Dead rodents in inaccessible areas
Foul odors and cleanup issues
Risks to children, pets, and non-target animals
Regulatory concerns in sensitive areas like food service or healthcare

While poison still has a place in some settings, its limitations are clear, particularly when safety is a concern.

Why Traps Work Better

Traps offer a straightforward, visible solution. You know exactly when and where the catch happened. That kind of control makes a big difference in commercial and residential spaces alike. Benefits of traps:

No harmful chemicals
Easy to monitor and adjust placement
Safe to use indoors, even in sensitive environments
Reusable options for long-term cost savings
Immediate, measurable results

Kness traps like the Ketch-All®, Snap-E®, and Stick-All® are designed for pest professionals who need tools they can count on. They're built for performance and designed to be easy to use in the field.

Traps Fit Better Into an IPM Strategy

Traps are also a better fit for integrated pest management (IPM), which focuses on monitoring, prevention, and minimal chemical use. With Kness traps, you can:

Track rodent activity over time
Rotate trap placement based on high-traffic areas
Catch and remove rodents without disrupting the environment
Document outcomes clearly for client reporting

Dependable Tools, Smarter Results

Kness traps are made to perform in real-world conditions. From the steel components in the Snap-E to the multiple-catch mechanism in the Ketch-All, each product is designed for repeated use, quick resets, and minimal hassle. Whether you're servicing a warehouse, restaurant, or residential space, reliability matters.

Traps offer a cleaner, more effective solution across a wide range of environments. When precision and consistency matter, Kness traps deliver dependable results.
