MOUSE, VOLE TRAPPING TIPS:
Placing the trap in the right location is essential to catching mice. Mice almost always run close to walls or objects and never get far from a hiding spot. We recommend placing a Tomahawk Model 101 along any wall, or near some steps, and directly in the mouse's pathway. Mice are always looking for dark places to hide when unfamiliar sounds are heard.
The Tomahawk Model 101, placed alongside a wall is a good place for mice to hide. If you want to bait the trap, place some cheese, peanut butter, or bread at the back of the trap. By opening the complete trap, it makes it easier to place the bait at the back of the trap. If you prefer not to open the trap, simply pull down on the back door, place the bait behind the trip pan, and snap the rear door shut after the bait has been placed inside. When the mouse enters the trap and reaches for the bait, his weight will set off the trigger and release the door which will close behind him, trapping him safely inside.
The most effective way to reduce mice through trapping is to place several traps out at one time. Important: mice need a nesting place, and if they are exposed for a few hours, they might die. Therefore, it is always a good idea to place a cotton ball in back of the mouse trap so the mouse can curl up with the cotton ball.
