Catchmaster-40 Mouse & Insect Glue Traps, Heavy-Duty Pesticide-Free Sticky Mouse Traps Indoor for Home, Used by the PROs, Adhesive Rodent & Bug Catcher, Pest Control for House & Garage

I’ve tried a handful of glue traps over the years, but the Catchmaster Mouse & Insect Glue Traps (16-Pack) stand out for one simple reason — they actually work. These traps are simple, inexpensive, and get the job done without gimmicks. Performance: I was honestly impressed. One trap managed to catch two mice at once — and it held them securely. The adhesive is extremely strong, enough that even larger mice can’t wiggle free once caught. It’s also effective for small insects and spiders that tend to wander near baseboards or garage corners. Ease of Use: Each trap comes ready to use straight out of the pack — no baiting or setup required. You can lay them flat or fold them into a tunnel shape if you want to protect pets or avoid dust collecting on the sticky surface. The cardboard base is flexible but sturdy, and they’re easy to slide into tight spaces like behind appliances or under cabinets. Disposal: Cleanup isn’t pleasant (glue traps never are), but it’s simple. Just fold it closed and toss. If you’re squeamish, use disposable gloves — the adhesive is no joke. Effectiveness for Other Pests: Besides rodents, they also do a great job catching roaches, crickets, and other crawling pests. I placed a few in my basement and along window sills, and within a few days they were doing their job quietly and effectively. Downsides: As with all glue traps, they’re not the most humane option — the animals don’t die instantly. It’s something to keep in mind if you prefer no-kill pest control. They also lose stickiness over time in dusty or humid areas, so replacing them periodically is key for best results. Overall Impression: If you’re looking for a straightforward, effective way to handle mice and insects without poison or complex traps, Catchmaster delivers. The adhesive strength alone puts it above cheaper alternatives, and the value of a 16-pack is hard to beat.

Noticed a mouse in an urban apartment building. Paired these with Victor Arm Bar traps for overkill. Set them up 2 days after initial sighting (due to delivery time). Caught the mouse 4 days later. Follow the instructions provided. Easy set up great results.

It caught the little mouse. I place a few pieces of cereal/granola on the trap.worked like a charm.

Moving out to a rural lake area a couple of years ago has given me new critter challenges I've not had before. Last year was bad. I had a couple of mice get into my house - that was a nightmare for 2-3 weeks until I could clear them out. I also had a "car" problem when mice ate out my Ford's wiring harnesses to the tune of $1000+. Then them trying to take over my garage in the fall!!! I tried different types of baits and traps. I started more humane, then had to get mean. I got these because they were a reasonable price and I could put them in more spots - bonus if they caught some bugs too. These little glue traps have snagged more mice than any other poison or trap I've tried. I've been amazed. I've caught lots of mice. A couple of chipmunks, bugs, and as of this week my first snake, and a nice, nasty collection of spiders. On the downside - they are lightweight, so a breeze the right way can move them... or if a critter is partially stuck but able to move a bit - they have traveled. They can blow on top of each other and get stuck together. They can collect dust, leaves, and debris and get gunked up. But, they are still the most useful and best tool in my arsenal and I will be getting more shortly. Having the big box available, makes it easy to lay extras down without fuss. I always use gloves and/or bags to collect them and their catches. I don't want to touch the critters or the glue - the glue is VERY sticky. I just have to make sure that my pups and visiting kids don't get to them and get stuck.

We had our kitchen re done and they left the vent uncovered and covered our dishwasher with it. So mice had an easy access point, We closed off the access point and had these delivered today and I played a mice attracting sound on youtube and it came out right away and stuck to the trap perfectly and could not come off. Definitely the best trap i’ve used.

They get the job done. I can put several out in all the high traffic areas. There’s no smell and clean up is quick. If you don’t like seeing or hearing animals in pain DO NOT buy these. They are glue traps. The mice get stuck to them and the poison doesn’t kill them quickly. Chances are high you’ll hear/see the mice squealing out of fear. It’s absolutely awful, but I can’t use a traditional mouse trap.

I purchased a package of these after I began finding spider webs around my house. The traps come in pairs, so you have to pull them apart and separate them before use. In doing so, some of the glue comes off and, despite using a stick to move them into place, I managed to get some of it onto one of my palms, just below the thumb. Trying to wash it off merely spread the glue over both my hands and my thumb nails. Nothing would remove the glue. Not soap, cleanser, alcohol, nailpolish remover, or paint thinner. I called the company because there was no mention of what to use on the packaging and it did not include an antidote. Their representatives advised me to wash with vegatable oil or mineral spirits. I don't have mineral spirits and wasn't able to find anyone who knew what it is. I used half a bottle of expensive oilve oil, but it had no effect whatsoever. I bought a bottle of generic vegatible oil from a local convenience store and have been washing with it since then, followed each time with soap and water. None of this has made a bit of differnece. My hands still stick to each other and everything I touch. I have been wearing plastic disposable food preparation gloves around the house, so as to not spread the glue everywhere and ruin all my things. I don't know if the gloves are sterile, so I haven't tried to cook with them or eat with my hands. I saw a doctor and he told me I'd just have to wait until it wears off. He didn't know if it is toxic. When I got up this morning, I found a spider in my bathroom, hanging from a web not four feet from where I had set up one of the traps. Another appeared on the ceiling over me when I was taking my bath. In my living room, I found a huge one hanging from a web, directly over the trap. (See photo. It's very dark and blurry because my camera won't focus that close, so I circled the spider). So much for the idea that these traps attract insects. They do not appear to be effective for catching pests, but may be a pest to humans.
