bottle rat/mouse trap

It is a simple rat trap that can be made using two water bottles.

cool trap and a good idea, but you better check it often! Rat will chew right out of that bottle in no time

The trap retainer should be on the opposite side of the opening. As you can see, the rat was sniffing around it, because it's above the opening. The rat may accidentally set off the retainer while still outside the trap.

Crazy how I can watch the rat/mouse and not be afraid, but seeing them up close and personal is totally different. I'm scared out of my mind.
Great trap.

I love how the rat inspects, turns, looks right at the camera and pauses, turns and inspects the trigger mechanism and says, " Yup, ita a trap but I like peanuts." and climbs in. Lol. Amazing. Very clever.

That mouse is a hired actor. He is a stuntmouse.

Yeah real smart putting this on YouTube. Now no rat is gonna fall for this trap!

If you don't do something right away about it being stuck in there, it will chew a hole and get out easily. Rats can also chew through some metals, brick or uncured concrete, let alone wood. You can find all this info online.

Better than 99% of Hollywood thrillers today!

That's fantastic. The only way that trap could potentially be any better is when you burrow a bottle shaped hole in the ground and place the trap inside, while the entry hole faces upward. In this case the rat will be more eager to crawl inside of it because it is on ground level and it doesn't have to stretch upwards to get to the peanut.

Brilliant, and cheap. Millions of these are needed. For some, it could be a home industry. Best regards

Now make one bigger to catch politicians.

First time I see a mouse trap that captures the rodent keeping it alive. Good for science studies of rat population. Deserves an award.

This was so scary, and yet I watched it. Probably shouldn't have before bed. My cat evidently saw this beast as he crept over and is now sitting in front of the tv.

Was afraid the mouse was going to die of old age before he got into the trap.

More interesting & dramatic than anything coming out of Hollywood these days.

2 minutes later the rodent is free after chewing a hole through the plastic...

[CrockE]

I like the mouse version of Jaws music for suspense LMAO

[corunmila]

The rat immediately started chewing an escape hole.

[garyc]

It only took that rat about 2 seconds to start chewing his way out of that trap. Perhaps some metal washers glued to the inside of the hole would prevent the escape attempt.

He will chew his way out especially through cheap plastic 😆 Great Invention! ❤
