Open mouse bait trap with NO KEY!

Quick tip on opening mouse baits when you lose those little keys they come with. Our Protecta bait stations: amzn.to/3eK8nvA (affiliate link)
Seemed like I would never get our bait station open after losing the key until I figured out this little hack. Save yourself the money and open them with ease without ruining your trap!!!

Yeah, this works, thanks guy. I used one nail at a time though, I put a smaller nail on the first slightly lifted side to hold it open (lid) and did the other hole and it opened. Easy process. Look into the holes for the key and you’ll see which way to push the plastic tabs.

[@BadWolf8333]

Stand up the station. Step on it. Pops open easily. That what pest control techs do when they don't have a key with them.

Thank you for showing this. I just got two of them at a yard sale today. They said use a screw driver but didn't say how

[@kristinetowns5919]

Thank you so much! This helped me greatly prepare for this fall.

I live in an apartment and orkin just put one in...can the mice get out on their own because we found one in our kitchen floor dead

[@diydads2535]

Yes they can get out. These stations aren't meant to keep mice trapped inside. Just to create a space to put the poison for mice to find, ingest, and potentially bring back to any nests they might have.

[@helensisco2492]

AWESOME, just 2 nails, thanks for your help!

[@sheryllynmc]

Thank you. My box arrived w/o a key, just some thin metal bars. Figured they were meant to use for opening...

Lost a whole bag of them and I'm a professional pest control age. So I'll definitely keep some screws and nails on hand in cases

Thank you!!!!

[@sherri1793]

Great. Thanks. Always loosing the key.

[@joshmuz9018]

Thanks man. Will it work for rat stations I don't have a key and you can't buy them in Australia

[@diydads2535]

Not sure. A lot of these boxes that are the black plastic work similarly so it's worth a shot if the style looks close. Good luck and thanks for watching!

[@arlenezahrl6891]

My mom thought a bird got stuck in the trap thanks to this method i got the trap open but a rodent ran instead got out but thank you 😅😂 i told her a bird doesnt make that noise

You need to speak closer to the microphone because we can I understand what you're saying your voice is so low

[@mpg296]

Worked great for me. I am able to replace the bait boxes by myself.

Where do you buu the blue bait from? In Canada i was told you have to havve a pest c0ntrol license to purchase the blue pioson blocks. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

[@jasonmiller270]

I always hook mine to my keychain all prefer the metal ones not the plastic keys

[@towellingstories9251]

Legend! Thank you!

[@c.a.8103]

Thank you!!!

[@etstiffler]

I had a local pest control install the six traps I have and they didn't give me a key. I didn't have nails, so I used two screwdrivers. Thanks Chris!

[@brianmilette]

Customers don’t get a key. This is the exact reason you wouldn’t get one. You pay for a service and then you try to go and fuck with everything afterwards instead of let the bait work. I’m sure you complain when they come back because it “didn’t work”.
