"I'm very impressed by these traps. Traditional snap traps always trigger when I am attempting to set them... they almost need to be primed "in place", as it is difficult to move them after setting them without premature snapulation. Traditional wooden traps require finesse to bait, set, and empty. The Snap-E traps solve all of these problems... The additional arm at a right-angle to the "killing" arm makes them trivial to set and to empty... And when they are set, they stay set. This makes it much easier to bait and set a number of traps at once, and then move them to the desired locations. The bait cup is fixed to the base and is easy to fill - I've had good luck with crunchy peanut butter. They seem to have sufficient power, and I have had only one trap trigger without a kill - I'll chalk that up to a particularly clever mouse. The plastic construction makes the traps easy to clean. I'm sure they won't last forever, but I really wouldn't expect them to. So far they're still going strong after many kills. I have had excellent success controlling a sudden mouse problem with these traps, and recommend them highly. In fact, this is the first product which impressed me enough to review!”
