Works Shockingly Well - The Newly Redesigned VICTOR Electronic Mouse Trap Is Great. Mousetrap Monday

[@louisglen1653]

Years ago I worked at a factory that make subway cars and street cars etc. The foreman thought he had a better idea for a part so he asked for it to be revised, but he still wasn't happy so it was revised again, and then again and again, finally after we saw the latest and final revision one of the guys showed me the original blue print. It was identical to the final revision! 🤣

[@frikkiesmit327]

😂😂😂😂😂

[@101Volts]

Reminds me of the tale of one woman who complained about her Latte or Tea, then asked for it to be re-done because it wasn't right. 15 minutes later, she came back and said "See, this is good." The employees didn't do anything to it.

Love your videos!

When I used to live in Baltimore, the people in the apartment above mine had a cat and that kept the mice at bay. But when they moved out, the mice decided to come back in force. Over the months of fighting them, I settled on the Victor electric trap as being the superior one. Snap traps are great... right up until they don't actually kill the mouse and you have to finish it off yourself. The electric one (I had the "pro" or mid-sized version) never failed. If I were to do it again... I'd probably just get a cat.

[@jiliu2042]

Meow 🐈🐈🐈

[@Mike__B]

That's all fine and dandy until the cat only sees the mouse as a "play toy", they'll grab it, hop into your bed fling it up in the air, recatch it and continue... until they aren't able to recatch it. Don't ask me how I know.

[@nigelcox1451]

My cat brings the mice in, plays with them, then loses them. I have to catch them.

[@hilarycherry6528]

My 7 year old loves your videos! He's my mouse-catching helper!

[@revoakes8984]

I had 3 of these, 2 different generations, over about 10 years. Each of them, no matter how carefully monitored and cared for, lasted only for 2-3 mice, after which it just plain failed. Kinda expensive at around $20 for the equivalent each of 3 50-cent wooden traps! This one appears to have the same mechanism as the ones I had. Later you recommended the Owltra, and I've now had one for 3 years; it still works perfectly.

[@zos8085]

I had several that failed. Took them for a teardown at the forensic electronic club. The cause back then was incredibly poor Chinese? soldering with substandard parts, on a dirty flux laden PCB. I tried every which way to contact their support for a circuit diagram, including photo's of the defective ones without conformal water protection. I reckon the factory cost would be $1.50 odd for the electronics. They just fobbed me off, did not deliver. I looked at various patents for a rough circuit, and discovered they once did price collusion. I am now wiser, and still suspect a protection flywheel diode is missing in the 8000v area. So keep the receipts, and run a consumer warranty case against them . How odd to review things, without a photo of the electronic guts for robustness. Oh, their one secret was the mouse or rat got electrocuted twice, maybe after a minute. Who knew rats have auto cpr heart restart after being officially dead.

[@ClintWKennedy]

Please bring back the trail cam!!!

[@drshoe8744]

Wow, that looks easy enough to set up and use, you might even say it's "Shockingly simple to use."

[@frikkiesmit327]

Absolutely flashing! Hehehee. That mouse was charged up for sure.

[@exothermal.sprocket]

Let's just say... it's the high-energy type.

[@TeaBurn]

Looks like it would be good for tight spaces like apartments, for when more efficient ones like bucket-style traps would be too large.

[@matthewday7565]

Didn't get to see something get a toasty mouse snack

[@maxtrix1]

Shawn, I have a few questions after enjoying your channel for several months (Or years, I don't know exactly) - Why is your place always infested with mice and rats? Do you let in that way to try more mousetraps? - In several previous videos you showed that the traps capture some local species that you bring to the wild for preservation purposes. If that the case, should you only test live capture traps due to the risk to kill a local / endangered species? Cheers and thanks for the great content.

[@Tonedog88]

The mice in my shed use these traps once--I get one dead mouse. Then, this being WV, they learn. After they learn, they never go back to that dark hole that killed their buddy. I get maybe one mouse a year in those traps, a body-count that makes them kinda worthless to me. Let me know when they come up with a trap that thinks like the mice.

[@Zoe-c9z]

CAT😅

[@exothermal.sprocket]

Move it. Clean it. De-funkify it. Reset with food, maybe something of a different snack.

[@maxpower1337]

[@michaelsheffield6852]

Wow 8 years ago! Time Flys! I remember, the steel wool test is memorable!

[@tpl608]

Yup

[@timfischer]

We have 3 of the style that break in half for cleaning. I really like that design and they work well.

[@JohnDoe-df2zz]

I've had mixed luck with these electronic traps. I've had 3 versions- and when they work, they work well. But for some reason they seem to just quit for no apparent reason. I have the expensive wifi version of the victor electronic rat trap. It gives false readings all the time saying it caught something but it didn't. I have a camera set up next to it so I've also seen things go into it, but the trap doesn't fire. According to their app it's working fine....but it isnt.

[@arikwolf3777]

Is youtube giving grief about showing feeding mice to animals?

[@samuelfellows6923]

~ 😠

[@exothermal.sprocket]

KZbin is giving humanity grief, making people programmibly less human.

[@markbellerby1133]

Awesome video as always

[@grafzeppelin4069]

I got the version you showed at 1:02 and it was an absolute waste. I think it got one mouse in total over more than a year & 3 packs of batteries. Putting bait at the back of the chamber was never enough to entice them - I always had to put extra peanut butter at the entrance, and the mice would only eat that, if anything. I think they don't feel like squeezing past the "safety walls", or they've learned to avoid traps outright, or the trap itself is dead.

[@janosnagyj.9540]

3:28 So, you just gave it a little flip, did you? 😅

[@FLPhotoCatcher]

"Thunk!"

[@Mike__B]

Was going to say "will it kill mice who's fur isn't made out of steel wool? Seems like it works, I wonder if you put some multimeter probes up to that what kind of voltage it's doing.

[@miketuggle9273]

I can't imagine what an electrifying experience that is for those poor little mice.

[@felixomania3348]

Victor has a redesigned live catch mouse trap that is a single mice version!

[@banana1658]

I had a trap like this, it was the capacitor on my outdoor a/c unit! Those Little bastards fried it and themselves! 😆

[@frikkiesmit327]

😂😂😂😂😂😂 haha i had a good laugh with your comment

[@nunyabusiness3082]

I seen electric stove fried mice. The mouse crossed the 2 phase terminals on the back where the cord connects. 😂

[@LFTRnow]

Get the new vaporization model. Connects directly to the power grid, running off a convenient 14,400V using some large alligator clips. Mouse is humanely instantly vaporized and it is ready for the next mouse with no catch tray to empty!

[@grimtagnbag]

I clicked for the steel wool test YES SIR!! LMAO

[@alraymond9529]

So is it suitable for outdoor uncovered use? How about high humidity or even a rain shower? Every one I have ever bought was expensive junk that failed in the real world.

[@ricksuppiger7392]

Have you done a review on the trapline mole traps, I love them, you have to get the hang of using them but once you do, wow they work great

[@Bozemanjustin]

Shawn woods I have your mouse trap that goes on the bucket I also have a standard snap trap I have caught three rats on the snap traps, the bait is untouched on your bucket Is it possible my rats are afraid of heights... They are only taking bait or eating food that is on the ground level food that is on a shelf that is even 12 in high. They are not touching and your bucket is 12 in or more easily

[@blueridgerider2023]

Shawn, Please test the KZbinrs Twin Home Experts modified trap. You also need to get them using your trap.

“And now we’re going to test out this trap with one of our pet mice.” NOOOOOO!!!!

[@colinnorris4156]

[@doctor_fever]

[@Riceball01]

What, no footage of feeding the dead mouse to animals at the beaver dam? Or is that, yet another, thing that KZbin is frowning upon now?

[@216trixie]

I think he stopped showing that a couple years ago.

[@Muladeseis]

Maybe it was not worth for him to record all that extra footage.

[@arlo.guthrie]

But no wifi / notification anymore. 😢 That’s a real step backwards.

[@Manche-De-Pelle]

Bought one 8 year's ago the original model ... the mouse shorted the trap and never made the light blink and the mouse was toasted and stuck in the trap ... so 40$ went to the trash

[@AB-ye7bw]

Live traps let you judge whether the mice are invasive species or not. But in reality most people wouldn’t care. Do the electrocution traps produce an odor?

[@richardgray8593]

Just the odor of cooked mouse.
