Walk The Plank Bucket Mouse Trap | Flip and Slide | Water-Proof | Durable | Auto-Reset - Live or Kill

This trap is working great. I was skeptical when reading some reviews, but gave it a try. Using it in my shed and got 3 mice in 2 days. Directions to set the sensitivity weren't to bad but I decided to temporarily tape a penny at the end and that works really well. I definitely recommend this as a better mouse trap.

We live next to multiple fields so it's rough trying to get rid of mice and keeping up with it. Most traps don't work or are a hassle to keep setting over and over or the money that's spent on them. We've also tried making our own traps to save money but they were not as effective and time consuming. But this one here is a one time purchase that keeps on WORKING! We've caught so many mice now we've lost count and it's only been a little over a week. All you have to do is set up once and add some peanut butter on the end and you are good to go. Of course every once in a while you have to add more bait but that's not hard. The only issue I have is the ramp. Don't get me wrong, I love that they included a ramp, but it gets knocked over or off alot. There is probably a way you could rig it up so it don't fall. But I have 4 kids that bump it all the time so..

If you're a student of mice, you know that they can be tough to herd. But they're also mostly blind. So, the first night I set up my Planky Pro, I had two teenage meece (adolescent mice) who were running wild in my kitchen. And were starting to branch out into other areas of the house.So I set up Planky Pro under a counter in my kitchen and after doing so, while standing there admiring my handiwork, my two little punks came strolling in. I stood stock still and they didn't see me for the fifteen minutes it took for the boldest of the two to do his final swan dive. They went up the ramp and down, tasting the yummy peanut butter at the foot of the diving board, but never venturing out to the end. Up and down, maybe and maybe not. So I left them to their own devices and left the room.Within ten minutes, my bold mouse bid adieu to this world. His more cautious sibling made his dive the next night. Both had been pooping all over my kitchen counters and making me nuts. I hate meeces to pieces!Now life is good. I'll keep my Planky Pro loaded for mouse and ready to go at all times. Thank you, Planky Pro!

Very flimsy

I had a mouse that ran in an open door. When I got this trap, I bought a new 5 gallon bucket and some bait that was supposed to be really good. Set the bucket up in a closet where we heard the mouse. Next morning, bucket was empty and the bait was still there. This went on for days with us moving the bucket from room to room. After about 10 days, we stopped hearing the mouse. Either he got out of the house (we have 4 exterior doors), or we will find a mummified mouse sometime. We live in the country. I feel the wood plank is far too long for any smart mouse. It needs it to be long because of the height of the bucket.We are keeping it and will try it again if we get another mouse. So far it is Smarty Pants 1, Dumber than Dirt 0

I bought these on Amazon to replace one I had purchased locally a year and a half ago that wore out. I've used these traps to successfully eliminate an average of 10 packrats/week from my property in southern California's Mojave Desert.Following a particularly wet winter two years ago, we suffered a plague a packrats. They were everywhere, and destroying everything they touched. A single one of these traps eradicated an average of 10 packrats/week, along with the occasional antelope squirrel or desert chipmunk. disposing of the carcasses is a breeze; I simply yeet the contents of the bucket over my fence, and the juicy water-logged vermin make an easy meal for a lucky coyote or raven. Then it's just a matter of refilling the bucket and freshening the peanut butter bait about once a week.Much, much more efficient than spring traps, which in my experience tend to wear-out after about four uses and often come apart as you're arming them, inflicting pain and injury on the unlucky soul manipulating the trap.

I put this with a 5 gal bucket and caught over 20 mice the second night. A few weeks ago I came back to the horse barn and was amazed at how many mice were gathered in the chicken pen eating their feed. I got this plank trap and the first night put too much peanut butter on the wooden ramp that comes with it and only got a few. The mice just ate the peanut butter on the ramp and the chicken feed I left in the pen. The second night I just rubbed some on the ramp, took the chicken feed out of the pen, and got over 20 mice. Now I get 10 or more mice a night. The mice have not been molested for years (daughter over feeds the barn cats) and have really gotten out of control. PS: I just put sawdust in the bottom of the bucket and release the captured mice way out in the back pasture but you can use water instead and end the problem. That little plank works like a charm.

I have a camera that stays on 24 hours and shows mice at night walking under and around the ladder, but they will not climb it even though I put peanut butter on it. Meanwhile the traps I put behind the bucket have killed 6 or 7 mice in the same time period. I still have it out and baited, if anything changes I will update this review.
