Ultra low quality. Rubbish. That says it all

The past few month I have been dealing with an infestation in a rental property in the Bronx,NYC. These have never failed to catch a rat providing nothing gets in the way of the kill bar. I’ll catch the small juveniles up to the alpha adults. It has a lower profile than the Victor snaps, the same torque on the kill bar as a Victor, more durable and seems to be galvanized steel construction so you could use them outside tbh. The teeth on the base plate will hold the rodent firmly. Semi pro tip is get a cheap Wi-Fi camera to see what bait they are most interested in. Remove all food supplies and seal all entry points.

Got these set up tonight. Within 10 minutes we had our first rat. 10 minutes later, a second rat.They have a very strong spring and kill quickly, which is important so the rats don’t suffer.Make sure to bait them with something that smells enticing. We smeared them with a bit of bacon grease and put a small piece of steak on the bait prong.Would have given 5 stars but one of the traps came apart when it was triggered and we had to fix it.

This is, obviously, a large version of the tried-and-true Victor mouse traps. It's better than the larger Victor rat version, however, because this one is made of metal, and while wood is fine for the smaller mouse versions, metal is the way to go when these traps scale in size.The biggest complaint people tend to have with these traps is that they aren't humane if a rat doesn't get whacked right on its head or neck. The solution to this is to build a quick open-topped cardboard enclosure for the back half of the trap. This will lead to rats approaching from the front and that'll be that.The same rules apply to these as to their smaller mouse-trap cousins, only more so:1) Set the trigger mechanism as sensitive as possible2) Be VERY careful when setting the trigger mechanism -- be sure to cover the snap bar with one hand while gently adjusting the trigger plate so that if you set it too far you won't smash your hand. This trap probably WILL be able to break your finger.3) Be generous with your use of traps. I cluster them together.4) Avoid getting your scent on the traps as much as possible. I use nitrile gloves that I rub lightly with peanut butter before handling the traps so that the only scent that gets transferred to the trap is something delicious.
