I set up two of these Ucatch traps after buying them in November 2025, glad it came in a pack of 2. At first, I didn’t see any results, the food was gone, but no rats were caught. I honestly started doubting whether I’d even set them correctly or put the bait in the right place, especially because I left them alone for a while and forgot about them until December. When I remembered, I went back and watched the setup videos to see exactly how to load the bait and position the trap. This time, I paid close attention and made a mental note of how I set them to ensure that I press on the back so it can snap when a rat enters. Within about a week or thereabout, they caught two small rats! The rats were pretty small, but thankfully I could see the tail from outside but not the bodies. I had previously seen rats in my garage months ago, no idea where they came from, freaked me out! It’s getting colder in Minnesota so they probably found a way to get in for warmth. After a while I stopped seeing them, even though I still noticed poop droppings, they had damaged one of my fur winter coat. That made me suspect they were still around. Sure enough, Ucatch got them!! When it was time to throw them out, I was honestly scared and grossed out. I thought I might have to pop the trap open and physically handle the rats. On December 11, 2025, I watched the instructions video again and realized how easy it actually was: I just pressed down, released the rat into a trash bag outside, and that was it. I made sure to do it outside, just in case (God forbid) anything was still alive and tried to get into the house. Thankfully, all was fine. I rarely write reviews, but I had to come back and say these traps really work. For the second round, I added more peanut butter (same PB I used to catch these ones) in the bait compartment (I see they sell replacements on Amazon but I don’t need those now, just in case there are more rats lurking around. I didn’t need to clean the trap; I simply opened it to drop the rats into the bag. There was no smell, no noise, and it functioned exactly as expected. One important note: when I was trying to reset the trap after realizing it hadn’t caught anything the first time, I was fiddling with it to see how it worked inside, and it snapped on my finger and fell to the floor. I ended up with a small bruise on my right thumb. So don’t play around with it once it’s set, watch the video and follow the instructions carefully. Interestingly, one rat that died ate the bait fully, while the other one that also died hadn’t eaten much of the peanut butter at all. I had put a generous amount of bait, so maybe it only got a taste before it was caught. I absolutely hate dealing with rodents, but this product made it manageable. Great product!

We get a lot of chipmunks. Most recently they're going after the tomatoes ripening on the vine. These traps are the bomb. They're sturdy and reusable. Also, easy to bait with a bit of peanut butter ( I keep a massive jar in the garage and been using the same one for years - chipmunks don't mind it's old). Within 1 hour the fat boy who was coming around for his afternoon tomato snack couldn't resist the lure of the peanut butter. Buh bye. Plusses - easy to "clean". I release the deceased rodent in the back of the yard and within hours the neighborhood foxes are grateful for the snack. Win, Win, except for the tomato bandit.

Worked fine for small rats, though you gonna need to be careful with the quick release mechanism, one of the traps caught two small rats at once, but when I tried to clean it up one of the rats was still alive and jumped on me! Pros: 1- Quick setup. 2- Pet Safe Cons: 1- the opening is small, won't catch big rats 2- the claw traps small-medium size rats and won't kill them so be careful when emptying the trap. 3- very light weight and strong rain/wind might below it up 4- I used it twice and so far it is holding good, will update this review soon. Overall: Quick and easy to setup, but not effective for big rats and the release mechanism is weird.

This rat trap works very well. I use peanut butter and a corner of a dog treat. It takes a day or so of leaving it alone in the place I set it up after seeing/hearing signs of a rat, but it has faithfully done it's job! I've reused these traps and appreciate that it's not disposable. I just have to clean out the food insert and wipe it out with a disinfectant cloth. It's easy to set and it's wide base is sturdy to place on flat surfaces or up on a shelf without worry it will be moved. I would recommend this trap for quick and painless eradication of a rat (not a mouse. It's a bit much for a small mouse).

Just got my rat traps today. So easy to use. I put peanut butter in the little screw top area, set the spring trap, and set in in the backyard along the wall where I have seen recent activity. It is super sturdy and stable when it sits on the ground, and there is no odor whatsoever. I am not crazy about having to dump the rat and then clean out the trap…so I will wear a mask and gloves. Yuck. But I like the ideas of it being reusable.. the trap is super sensitive, as well, so it can trap even a small mouse. I just threw my old traps away, as they were heavily used for years, so now I am starting fresh with new traps. Beware rats!!!!! UPDATE. I changed the review from a five to a three because rats, or mice, got in the traps last night…which is great, but they got away. They snapped the trap jaw, and left the two traps upside down with no rat. One of the rats must have fought a lot to get away and actually busted a piece of plastic off a part of my house. Not a large piece, but the rat must have been throwing the trap around. So….beware. These traps are super light and should be a lot heavier to catch a rat. Or maybe at the it to the ground somehow. Don’t know, but not happy with my first experience.

Had a chipmunk who kept climbing around in my RV. He was in the engine compartment, then the roof and finally I saw droppings in the water bay. I tried putting peppermint oil on rags in the hose holes but that did not work. I put this trap in the water bay and caught him within 24 hours. I did not want to kill the cute chipmunk, but we are here for the summer and was tired of his torment. Very sturdy trap with easy access to the bait station.

Very effective for rats. Unfortunately mice are too small to trigger the mechanism, and will strip the bait from the rat traps. However we mostly fixed this by also buying the mouse size traps and putting them alongside the rat traps. Rats get caught in the bigger ones if they are around, and the smaller traps are very effective for catching mice.

These traps can catch mice as well as rats, but there is a glaring design flaw in them that needs to be addressed by the manufacturer. That flaw lies in the rear opening when the trap is in the disarmed/triggered position. While a rat is likely to successfully get caught (as long as it isn't a super athlete and sprints backwards in time to avoid the trap's "jaws"), a mouse is more likely to get *partially* caught and either have the opportunity to get out through the arming mechanism's gaping hole or remain alive such that when attempting to dislodge the mouse you put yourself in harms way wherein it may very well bite you out of fear. The mouse being entirely within the confines of the "jaws" occurred on both triggers of this trap so far. The first capture only pinned the mouse inside, but left it very much alive. So alive that I barely avoided getting bit and the moment it hit the ground it went running off faster than most cars drive around here. This may be the same mouse that triggered the trap the second time later in the day. The second trapping caught the mouse in such a way that it was pinned not between the "jaws", but between the wall that the jaws form and the spring mechanism itself. But in both cases the mouse's tail was dangling out of the arming mechanism and not out of one of the entry tubes. This constitutes a serious risk to the user and has the very high potential to allow the mouse to escape via the now open arming mechanism. The force necessary to squeeze that mechanism is both a boon and a curse. It's a boon in that the trap has very high compressive force if the mouse/rat is actually wedged in the jaws. It's a curse when the mouse/rat (more likely with mice though) is caught *inside* the three-walled jaws where only the spring mechanism itself provides any potential compressive force to crush it. What needs to happen is the trap needs to be redesigned such that when disarmed/triggered, there is no opening in that area for a rodent to escape or pose a contact risk for the user. A start to fixing some of the contact issue would be to give the trap a metal base with protrusions on the side so that a user can step on whichever protrusion is not occupied with a rodent's body with one foot and an arming slat that's got a handle to push down with instead of the small surface area you have to squeeze in the current trap. This has a better chance to keep your hands away from a frightened rodent if it's still alive and save you a potential trip to the ER in case of a bite (rodents are almost never carriers of rabies, but *do* transmit diseases). The amount of force you need to exert to squeeze this to the "open" position to dislodge a rodent is very high, meaning your hand will not have the dexterity it needs to move out of the way quickly as your grip is going to be iron tight when squeezing that arming slat down. An added safeguard would be to have "walls" or some sort of barrier to prevent a rodent from kicking/biting you as you squeeze that slat down. It really is a contact hazard waiting to happen. The build quality itself is fairly decent as is the ease of inserting the bait container, though a slight redesign of the bait container's cross bar used to twist it open and shut is in order - recessing the bar so you can grab it with your fingers while the bar itself is made flush with the cylinder would make keeping it in place on a table or other surface much easier. As it is, because the cross bar protrudes, the bait cylinder rests at an angle when the part of it that you put the bait in is facing upward. Due to the aforementioned issue with there being an opening in the leg of the T shape where the arming mechanism is, I recommend that users also purchase this trash picker to go with the trap and pick the trap up with the picker stradling the sides of the rear arming mechanism so as to avoid risk to hands until the rodent is verified to be deceased. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B078RMCFWQ I had originally bought that picker for the smaller Victor mouse traps I also got, but this picker is just the right size to grab this trap by the sides of the arming mechanism somewhat firmly so long as you maintain a tight squeeze on the picker's trigger. Trust me, it's worth the few extra bucks to save your hands (and your lunch). As for why I'm only giving this two stars: the opening in the arming mechanism being an escape route coupled with the high pressure to arm the trap leaves users' hands vulnerable when trying to dislodge the rodent from the trap if it's caught inside the trap's jaw area. This constitutes a critical design flaw that needs to be rectified. Once a means is devised to keep the arming mechanism's rear closed when in the disarmed/triggered position this trap should easily merit a full five stars since its construction is fairly sturdy.

Precisamente lo que necesitaba

This device is an absolute murder machine. We have an infestation of chipmunks tunneling all over our yard and gardens. I had 4 victims in under 2 hours. It was a cold and miserable day so in the late afternoon the yard was mostly clear of these demons anyways. I filled in the endless hole they'd dug in my garden and replaced the trap. There was another customer in it when I awoke. I'm not sure how I feel about the packaging. These came shrink wrapped in plastic which isn't as readily recyclable but is the least amount of material possible for such an oddly shaped item. I neglected to find the instructions as they were stuffed inside one of the traps, but managed to catch my first demon without the instructions. Very easy to use. I do appreciate the extra bait cups as they could get lost accidentally I suppose.

works great

First off, I never write reviews the same day I get the item. I've had this for less than 8 hours now. I've caught 3 rats so far. Am I impressed???? Yes, so, don't believe or put much weight on anyone that says they don't work. I've tried several (some much more expensive methods) and NONE have worked at all. I've caught NO rats at all with the other traps I've tried. This trap... unbelievable. 3 in the first few hours of use. Update, I'm up to 12 over a period of a month of using them on and off. Fill the small reservoir (from underneath) with some cheap peanut butter...and I also smear some on the 'plate' on the inside to increase the 'temptation' factor. And presto, check back within 24 hours and you'll likely have a fresh catch. I tested it with a stick, it's fast and hard, and will perform it's job quickly. They won't know what hit them. Rats are about the only animal I can think of that doesn't bother me too much to see go. Be patient with it, and ... it's a good idea to drill a small hole somewhere in it and attach a wire to it so that it can be tied down. We have coyotes here always looking for a free meal to take on the road with them....so, tie'm down. An update after a few months... these traps keep on keepin'on...caught 6 more the past few days after noticing droppings in our greenhouse. But..the 'trap lock' plastic mechanism has given out on both, I'm not surprised, the trap does work well, and does the 'kill' fast and efficiently, but.... using plastic parts in places where they will give out over time...well, that's just bad design. So, at this point, they are going to thrown out since they won't 'close' or 'set' anymore. Great while that lasted..but now... they're landfill...

Caught the rat!
