When Ralph Waldo Emerson, coined the phrase "Build a better mousetrap and the world will beat a path to your door," in the late nineteenth century, this is the trap they were talking about. Because the Victor® Clean-Kill™ mouse trap is unlike other traps in that it offers a no see, no touch experience with easy, stress-free baiting and setting. These clever little covered rodent traps look like a perfectly innocent little tunnel for unsuspecting mice. Once the mouse enters the trap to take the bait, however, it's in the perfect position for the Kill-Gate™ to produce a quick, humane Clean-Kill™. The unique tunnel design increases mouse interaction and since the bait trough is located at the back of the trap, bait theft is a thing of the past.
