Catchmaster Extra Sticky Insect & Mouse Traps 60-Count, 5.3"x8" Glue Boards for Mice & Insects, Ultra Sticky Rat & MouseTraps Indoor for Home Use in Garages, Basements & Attics, Pest Control for Home

This was my 3rd order. Live in rural area and Cave Crickets are a big issue beside little furry critters. These sticky pads fill up quick. Self baiting. One cricket gets on it, the others try to eat it and get stuck. Replacing them 2-3 times a month. Keeps the critter population in check.

There had been a leak in my apartment building for god knows how long that was just discovered. It caused significant damage to the flooring in the community hallway and garage. After maintenance finally cut through the walls to discover the massive leak, tenants including myself noticed critters in the hallways. It was only a matter of time before they spread to the apartments. For reference, I am a super clean tenant, who works tirelessly around the clock to keep my place clean as I am a mama. Cleanliness matters to me. However, no matter how clean I may be, I have spotted more than a few critters in my apartment. I had thought I’d gotten the infestation under control purchasing sprays and gels-until I bought these glue traps. Despite not visually seeing any more critters, I still wanted to make sure they were all gone so I purchased these traps. Omgeee 1st night after delivery of these traps, we caught at least 25 roaches! I was amazed in the morning to see how well these glue traps worked. Maintenance is now doing something about the issue. These traps are also extremely sticky. Be careful, I myself have accidentally got caught in one not watching my step and my favorite house slippers got ruined :( These glue traps provide me with security and comfort knowing any critter will be caught. I didn’t even have to put any bait down. No matter how clean you may be, critters will be critters. Doing some research online, we are now working to seal any cracks and replace the seal on our front do so that nothing creeps in. Again, cleanliness was never the cause as to why these critters were attracted to my apartment. I also cannot confirm if the infestation was due to another tenant being messy. But I can only suspect it have been the warm environment and a leaky building that attracted them…. I will keep you all updated on how well it continues to work. I attached some graphic pics.

I love these traps. I live in the desert and we have scorpions and Palo Verde beetles that look like giant cockroaches. They keep me informed if any unwanted insects have invaded my home

I had a stray mouse in my house and I freaked out and bought lots of mouse related items and this was one of them (in the end, the exterminator determined that my house didn't have any traces of mice and I never saw another one afterwards and things have been peaceful for a year since then). Anyway, I set up these traps around the house and here are some tips that I got from the exterminator. These sticky traps aren't meant to lure the mice in; they're meant to be installed along the walls (which is often the path that the mice take when they're running), and the mice would unwittingly try to run across these traps and get stuck. So putting food pieces on these traps could actually slow the mice down since they may stop to investigate and become more cautious, and decrease the effectivity of these traps. Be prepared that the mice could make horrible sounds as they're dying after they're caught. The exterminator told me that it's sometimes better for your mental health to either get a live trap and then take them far away from your house to set free, or to use mice poison (you won't get them from Amazon as they're controlled substances) which act slowly, so hopefully they won't be dying in your home. If you insist on the sticky trap anyway, there are the covered types (like this one), and uncovered types which basically look like a lot of sticky gel on a tray. Obviously, the covered traps will be easier on the eyes, should they work (and you'll have to take care of the trapped mice if they're caught, so this is important!) With these being said, I actually don't know how effective these traps are, given that it turned out that I had no mice in my house. Nonetheless I thought they were easy to fold up and install around the house though, and they made my house smell like peanut butter for a day or two. As for the strength of adhesion, I didn't think that it looked particularly strong (I've also seen other traps that basically looked like they were a 0.5-inch thick and extremely sticky goo, while this one was basically sticky tape) but since I haven't actually seen it work, I'm not sure about how well it catches the mice.

We have a terrible fly problem this year. I'm not sure if they're getting in through the window air conditioner, or what, but we can't seem to get rid of them completely. I originally bought these because we have house centipedes sometimes, and they creep me out looking like aliens. Plus apparently, I'm allergic to them, as I have a horrible itching rash after I get bit by one. My brother is diabetic, and he apparently is allergic to them too, as he gets huge dime-sized ulcers in his skin if he gets bit by them, and they take forever to heal. So the fly problem started, and I got the bright idea to just lay one of these out for that in the kitchen, dining room and the bathroom. Turns out they seem to be mostly in my dining room area near the back door, even though it's sealed, somehow maybe they're getting in from there. I laid one of the sticky pads out just to see what would happen. Well caught five of them. And two of the five must have been females because they actually laid eggs as they were dying. I didn't even realize it was eggs at first because with regular vision it just looks like a spiky little magnetic filament pile that's gray like cement in color. However, when I zoomed in with the camera and took a picture, I could clearly see it's eggs. Each fly can lay between 50 and 150 eggs! These sticky pads just saved our house from being completely overrun by flies. I have an electronic zapper too, and it works great, however our dog is absolutely terrified of it. Anytime a fly hits it, he goes running off and hides, and he starts shaking, and severely affected by that noise for some reason. We've had him ever since he was 7 weeks old so I have no idea where in his life this noise happened that it really really scares him to death. So these sticky pads have been a huge help with these flies. Unfortunately, we can't figure out where the flies exactly are coming from so they continue to come in. I also have an electronic zapping racket, and that works too. I do use it, but these help also, as you can see. I also want to mention that they have no odor at all. I have chemical sensitivities for over 20 years now, and I would never be able to use some of the other products that are on the market. I definitely wanted to mention the no odor for other people that are like me. No VOC's at all. I taped one to the top of the paneling in my room near the ceiling because that is where I always see a house centipede however have not caught one yet but I did catch a fly, as you can see in the last photo. I used scotch tape to put it up there, so I could easily remove it. Do NOT put these anywhere using part of the adhesive to stick it! It would most likely ruin whatever you put it on. The glue is very strong! I had laid one on a table in my room, and was digging through laundry, and my nightgown landed right on the pad lol! Fun times LOL! Highly recommend in any size! A few years ago we bought the larger size in this brand, and put one in the basement, and it caught several large spiders, house centipedes, and a few bugs we aren't even sure what they were. Safe, non-tocic, no odor, perfect!

These Catchmaster glue boards are very sticky and simple to set up, making them useful for catching small insects and mice in areas like basements or garages. The large pack size is convenient if you need coverage in multiple spots. They’re lightweight and easy to place, though you’ll want to be careful handling them because the adhesive is no joke. A straightforward option for basic indoor pest control.

The Catchmaster Pro Strength Mouse & Insect Glue Boards is an okay option if you're having issues with rodents and want to have a lot of glue boards on hand to *maybe* catch them. I only say *maybe* because it seems to work only some of the time. I laid out several of these boards around the house and backyard and found they're not as effective as the Tomcat Boards. There have been times I have caught smaller mice on the boards, times when I've checked the board to find a pile of fur or multiple chew marks all over the cardboard indicating an escaped rodent, and many times I've found dead insects and even a lizard caught in the fray. It's inconsistent, not like the Tomcat boards where I've had 100% catch rate. Would I trade in my Tomcat Boards for these? Probably not. But this is a statistics game. If we're playing based on statistics, there are enough of these boards to warrant me getting them at least once because it does catch mice at least part of the time. Overall, it's worth considering if you don't mind laying out a lot of boards to catch a few pesky rodents.

These are shipped in the original box which is fine but my box arrived half way open and a few of the traps were sticking out. Still love this product though and ordering in a 60 count box is way more economical than buying them 4 at a time. They work great in our garage to catch bugs!

Good Product

Lo compré porque vi que una empresa que se dedica a exterminar plagas las usa, ya veo por qué.

very sticky for best results always fold them. If you decide to cut them in half just know that the mice will make their way off of it when it is folded. It’s harder for them to move around cause they get stuck on the side bottom or top.

A very nice product

Good as the previous order
