We have an epidemic of extremely destructive voles this year. We had a box of glue boards from two years ago that we got for trapping rattlesnakes (not a success since dirt and dust rendered them ineffective quickly). So we thought we'd try them on the voles. We cut the boards in quarters and put a nail through the non glue edge to anchor them in the dirt by the vole trails. In less than two days we had over 100, in five days 175. We ordered another box which came today and the glue is even stickier (probably since it hasn't had time to dry out). This evening we trapped 41 in less than an hour and a half. Some of the quarter pieces had three voles each. We are very impressed at how well they work, HOWEVER, there are some limitations. Since we are using them outdoors, dirt, dust, grass, and weeds can ruin the sticky surface very quickly (we find that they are only effective for about a day). Also water will both ruin the backing paper and glue surface (our traps are all in small rock gardens). It is a job to police them regularly, and we find that they are most effective early in the morning and around sunset. The glue is also stickier the warmer it is and that helps too. We haven't had a problem with cats getting stuck to them even though they will steal live ones occasionally (this might be a problem if you used the whole board). The cost per vole is small but adds up when you have to use so many.

Perfect for mice and spiders. Occasionally mice will climb their way off of it, but usually it gets them stuck pretty well. Perfect for if you have a mouse or a spider problem. I use them everywhere.

These jokers are the real deal. Last year they caught a large black snake in my garage. I wish she would have just stayed under the hedges because they are good snakes. I can’t believe I just wrote that. Anyways, I’m guessing that’s where she lived with her babies. When the guys who do our yard work on out huge hedges it scares them out and they somehow slip into my garage. When I was switching these out because they had gotten pretty full of random bugs, spiders, and lizards I pulled out the shelves up against the wall and there were 3 more baby snakes these traps caught. One was a copperhead…. I buy these all the time they work for mice too caught a few of those before. Be careful because these are SUPER STICKY… you might be stuck to one and it’s hard to get the thing off you. REALLY HARD. I will continue to buy these.

Not Rat traps!! On the side of the box is written, "Catchmaster Mouse and Insect Glue Boards." Rat has escaped from three different boards. (smart mothers) The plus side is that they work 100% of the time against mice and insects. Good product. Incorrect marketing. Easy to use. UPDATE: Seriously INHUMANE for mice. I caught a mouse on Wednesday night, figured I would deal with it later. Forgot about it. Went back Saturday morning and the poor thing was still alive along with another mouse struggling in another glue trap. Use snap traps for mice. They work and they kill quickly. I bought these because I have a seriously smart big rat. Never gets caught in rat traps because of his size and his wits. He has been stuck to these glue traps and he finds a place he can squeeze through that will pull off the glue trap. Last night he put insulation over a trap to escape where he was cornered. !!! I never see him. Just too smart.

Very very strong. Rats, mice, insects, snakes, small possums Yes. Adult possums NO WAY.

I noticed an increase of furry creatures and flying cockroaches since they demolished the home across the street. (Ugh. Shuddering as I write.) They took over the condominium unit and we tried everything we could, to get rid of them: wooden spring traps, the black trap boxes that they can crawl into, the electrical boxes that shock them, sticky boards, ultrasonic wall plugs, Bath and Bodyworks mint eucalyptus plugins to deter them... Nothing worked until we started using the Catch Master Heavy Duty Glue Boards. On the first night, we placed the board along a wall (right under the heaters that runs along the wall. We found 4 small mice on one board, the next morning. They were little ones so we knew there had to be more. The next day, we caught another 2 medium sized ones on a board, in the same area. We also caught 2 mice that terrorized our kitchen (there was nothing for them to eat - I seriously think they just liked to run like they're in a playground, squeak, and play tag... or mate. Who knows.) I placed it on the stove. A mouse fell right on it, as it was trying to come out of the space between the stove and oven's lcd panel. They glue was thick enough to make it difficult for the (quite strong) mouse to escape. (It lost some fur in it's attempt to escape). Soon, another mouse fell on top of the same glue board. I haven't caught any roaches with this board, yet. Perhaps the glue is too thick? Oh, and when you're pulling the sheet off the glue board... make sure you're holding it securely and tightly between your fingers. Pull slowly. It's VERY VERY sticky. Like.. you would probably cry if it landed on your plush carpet or very hairy legs as you try to catch it mid air like a soccer ball. It'll take a lot of time plus forever to remove... enough time to think about poor life choices such as why you didn't take your time or hold the board firmly while separating the glue board from the sheet.

Just what I needed. Have caught three snakes and numerous mice from getting in garage

We had previously used the Victor glue boards for mice and crickets. However, due to a rotted crawl space cover, we got rats. The Victor boards were simply not sticky enough - we saw evidence that the rats broke free. We purchased this product, which is definitely much stickier. As a matter of fact, one got stuck to the bottom edge of the refrigerator, and we were not able to pull it loose! Be mindful of your pets when deciding where to place this product. Unfortunately, we did not catch any rats with this product - we finally cleared up the problem with snap traps - but I chalk it up to the fact that rats are rather clever, and recognized this as something dangerous due to their experience with the Victor glue boards.
