Prior to using these I had bought a 2 pack of the traditional looking traps for something like $3-5.
Those worked well. If you've used them, they will go off 9 times out of 10 if you set them down anything but incredibly delicately. They also lasted about 3 uses each before the staples holding them together pulled out and I replaced them with these traps. These traps don't go off nearly as readily. A review below mentions that has allowed a mouse to get the bait without triggering the trap. In 2 about 2 weeks with 3 traps out... I haven't had this issue. I actually had that issue twice with traditional traps as the mouse learned how to reach in from the side and get the bait without touching the pressure plate... so far that hasn't happened with these... but the mice ARE far far more hesitant around these traps. Traditional traps I got 2 mice day 1. These traps took almost a week before I started catching.
Pros:
Kills the mouse (none found alive yet)
Easy to bait, set and place with your fingers out of the way. Doesn't go off by accident as easily as the traditional spring traps do.
Costs about the same as the cheap traps ($3+ for 2 vs ~$10 for six) while being far better made.
I doubt these will break until the spring wears out... which I'd expect will be dozens if not hundreds of uses. These are built like tanks.
Cons:
Mice more skittish around these vs traditional snap traps. It will take a few days for them to get used to them/comfortable enough to get trapped.
Overall, I'd highly recommend. Far easier and less annoying to set these vs traditional traps.
