Troubleshooting
Bait is missing but the trap did not trigger.
Check the sensitivity of the trigger mechanism and ensure the bait is placed deep enough to force the mouse to interact with the mechanism.
The door will not stay open when set.
Clear any debris or obstructions from the hinge and trigger path, and ensure the trap is placed on a flat, level surface.
Mice are avoiding the trap.
Try changing the bait type or move the trap to a different location along a wall where mouse activity has been observed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the trap is straightforward: place the bait in the rear of the unit and set the door trigger mechanism as indicated by the device's design. To maintain the trap, wipe down the metal and wood surfaces with a mild disinfectant after each release to remove pheromones that might discourage future captures. Store the trap in a dry, cool place when not in use to maintain the integrity of the wooden components. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can leave behind scents that deter mice from entering the trap.
