Are there any plastic parts? I have to replace the existing trap because mice have chewed through plastic floor panels and walls.

No, no plastic parts. It is all metal - and yesterday I caught 5 mice, the whole family! Yea! Oops, I forgot about the lid, but it is flat surface and they can't get to the edges.

There is a clear plastic window in the top but there is a version that has an all metal top. We opted for the window cause we have to catch ad release..

The only plastic part is the window on the top of the trap. I think it would be pretty hard for the mice to get up to chew that part.

Nope it's all metal - the clear lid part is plastic I guess but I don't think there's a way for the mice to chew through that part - at least mine didn't even try!

There are no plastic parts that the rats/mice can eat through. The lid-window is plastic but cannot be eaten/bitten through. Keep the entrances clear and free of debris and you will trap the animals - so long as your rats/mice are small enough to pass through the entranceways. If you are looking to trap large rats you might have to look for another trap

Mine were not sticky enough flat, I did have better luck with the traps folded into tubes. But finally went to the nuclear option with rodenticide laced bait at my camp search 1412718573. At home I prefer the cat option (I think the cat smell deters the brighter critters).

Find out where they are living and lay down a bunch of glue traps will help and that unit you bought is bogus , just caught a couple mice on glue traps, gets them everytime .

I used an electrical snake (fish tape) and electrical tape to secure it. You could easily cut the p-trap and put new one on if it's that.

Hello , I have a 2600 size home and bought 3 units for basement , first floor and second floor . It has been a few years and still no mice!!!

It is a little electrical appliance with no replaceable parts. So I would expect it to last for a number of years.It may not work for mice, as other people have said, but it sure seems to be working to deter roaches in my house.

You might try an ice pick but be careful not to jab yourself. The plastic is thin and brittle so it might be hard to force an ice pick through. I don't know why the manufacturer wouldn't put vent holes in it. We have been catching mice on a fairly regular basis but on more than one occasion the food has disappeared. We figured one mouse came in and got it and another mouse came along and opened the door and both escaped.

It is made by victor. The traps are really commercial quality like a pest control company would employ. Bought 2 to catch the little white foot mice that we're cleaning off the triggers of the regular traps. CAUGHT 5 in one traps and 3 in the other the first night. Infestation over. I most strongly endorse these. Put some dry cat food in them for more effective lure. Work with no bait but not like they do with some bait.

No you need to use metal screening. Mice will eat through this. it stands up to cat claws great and I like this screen better than regular screen.

No, there are no plastic parts. This is a lovely teapot. I love it and I get a ton of compliments on it. Enjoy!

I would use metal ones, Lowes or Home Depot has replacements, the plastic won't work.

I don't think mice or rats could chew the plastic of the walls. If a dog knocked this over, it might stop working. But the lid locks in place so that if it is knocked over it should not spill.

no, any peanut butter will work. Place the traps along the walls where the mice travel or bear any openings line drains where they travel. I keep my traps set long after I catch the last mouse because where there are 1 or 2, there is likelt to be a whole family

Hi I purchased this for mice control so I am not sure if it is what you are looking for. I do know it's strong. I put it on cotton balls and put them in plastic cups and they ate right through the plastic.

Check to see if there is anything stuck in the trap. Food, debris, rodent, etc. I would also try using fresh batteries to see if that helps. Good luck.

Hi, I had the very same problem (note had), I cut the blocks in half and laid the pieces (usually underneath the patio) where I believed they "traveled" the most. Voila! they ate all the pieces, after laying a second batch I noticed not all the pieces were gone/eaten, we did not see any more voles/field mice. I left the uneaten pieces in place - no more mice so I have removed the residue.
