How to Set:
Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Remove arm bar from staple
- Move arm bar to back of trap so it hangs over the rear edge
- Apply bait to metal pedal using peanut butter, chocolate, or hazelnut spread (use Q-tip or toothpick to avoid leaving human scent)
- Pull kill bar back and hold in place with your thumb
- Swing arm bar over kill bar
- Latch bent end of arm bar into notch on metal pedal
- Slowly release pressure until arm bar holds kill bar securely in place
The trap is now set! At the slightest nibble, the metal pedal releases the kill bar for an instant kill.
Placement Tips:
Best Locations:
- Along walls where mice travel
- In areas where droppings or activity has been noticed
- Place bait end flush against wall
- Near entry points like gaps under doors
- Behind appliances
- In corners and along baseboards
For Maximum Effectiveness: Use multiple traps to increase results. Mice tend to travel along walls, so placement along baseboards works best.
After the Catch:
- Lift the metal kill bar
- Dispose of mouse
- Choose to reuse trap or dispose of entire unit
- If reusing, clean trap and rebait
About Mice Control:
Mice can sneak inside buildings through spaces as small as 1/4 inch. Once inside, they:
- Spread disease through droppings and urine
- Contaminate food sources
- Damage property by gnawing
- Reproduce rapidly (one female can have 5-10 litters per year)
The Victor Metal Pedal Mouse Trap provides effective control to protect your home and family from these destructive pests.
Best Bait Options:
- Peanut butter (most effective)
- Chocolate spread
- Hazelnut spread
- Small pieces of bacon
- Soft cheese
- Cotton balls soaked in vanilla extract
Pro Tip: Use a Q-tip or toothpick to apply bait—this masks your human scent and increases trap effectiveness.
