Proctor Pest-stop Little Nipper mousetraps were first made by Proctor Bros Ltd. in 1897 and the distinctive design has remained largely unchanged ever since. The unique treadle design of this, the original wooden platform mousetrap, makes it probably the most effective mousetrap available. The mouse has to step on the wooden treadle to reach the bait placed there so that even the slightest movement will set off the trap, ensuring an exceptionally high strike rate.
Experience suggests that the most effective mousetrap baits are peanut butter, chocolate or raisins. As mice tend to run alongside the walls of rooms, the traps should be set at right angles to the wall with the treadle closest to the wall. Placing un-baited traps in this position for a while can allow mice to become accustomed to them and so when the trap is baited and set, the strike rate becomes even higher.
Placing the trap behind furniture keeps them out of reach of pets or children. When a mouse is caught simply hold the trap over a bin, lift the wire square and the dead mouse will fall out. Then re-bait and reset the trap and, of course, wash your hands.
* Bait is placed on the treadle, which is raised when the trap is set.
* The mouse has to cross the treadle to reach the bait.
* The slightest motion is enough to trigger the trap, delivering an astoundingly high catch-rate.
