FAQs
Catchmaster glue traps utilize a specially formulated adhesive to capture mice upon contact. This non-toxic adhesive is safe for use around children and pets, ensuring effective pest control without compromising safety.
The traps can be strategically placed in areas frequented by mice, such as along walls or near entry points. Once a mouse steps onto the trap, it becomes immobilized, allowing for easy removal and disposal. This method is both humane and efficient, providing a straightforward solution to mouse infestations without the need for harmful chemicals.
Catchmaster Mouse Glue Traps are designed with safety in mind. To ensure safety, it’s important to place the traps in areas that are inaccessible to pets and children, such as behind appliances, inside cabinets, or under furniture. If accidental contact occurs, the adhesive can be removed using vegetable oil or another gentle oil-based product. Always supervise the areas where traps are placed to prevent unintended contact.
Catchmaster glue traps are effective against various mouse species, including house mice, deer mice, and other common rodents. Our traps are designed to exploit the natural movement patterns of these pests, capturing them as they travel along walls or in search of food. This versatility makes Catchmaster glue traps an essential component of any integrated pest management strategy.
It is recommended to check Catchmaster glue traps regularly, at least once a week, to ensure they remain effective. Replace traps that have captured mice or accumulated dust and debris promptly. Regular maintenance ensures that the traps continue to function optimally and provides an opportunity to assess the level of mouse activity in your home.
While primarily designed for indoor use, Catchmaster glue traps can be utilized in sheltered outdoor areas. Protect them from extreme weather conditions, such as rain or direct sunlight, which can compromise the adhesive's effectiveness. When used outdoors, place traps in covered or shielded areas, such as under eaves or in garages, to extend the reach of your pest control efforts.
To properly dispose of used Catchmaster Glue Traps, first ensure that the trap is securely sealed to avoid any direct contact with the captured mouse. You can do this by folding the trap onto itself or placing it inside a sealed plastic bag. Once the trap is securely contained, dispose of it in your regular household waste bin. It's important to avoid direct handling of the trapped rodent to minimise the risk of disease transmission. If possible, wear disposable gloves during the disposal process and wash your hands thoroughly afterward. This ensures safe and hygienic disposal of the trap.
If a pet becomes stuck on a Catchmaster glue trap, gently apply a small amount of cooking oil, such as olive or vegetable oil, to the affected area. This will help loosen the adhesive, allowing you to carefully remove the trap from your pet's fur or skin.
After removing the trap, wash the area with soap and water to remove any remaining residue. It's important to keep traps out of reach of pets and to monitor trap placement regularly.
Catchmaster glue traps are intended for single use and should be replaced once they have captured mice or become dirty. Reusing traps can compromise their effectiveness, as the adhesive may lose its strength over time.
By using fresh traps, you ensure that your pest control efforts remain effective and that you can quickly respond to any new mouse activity.
Catchmaster Mouse Glue Traps do not have a strict expiration date, but for optimal performance, it’s recommended to use them within a few years of purchase. The effectiveness of the adhesive can diminish over time, especially if the traps are exposed to extreme temperatures, humidity, or dust. To maintain their efficacy, store the traps in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or moisture. Before using an older trap, check the adhesive to ensure it is still sticky and free from debris. Proper storage will help extend the life of your glue traps and ensure they work effectively when needed.
Preventing mouse entry involves a combination of exclusion techniques and good housekeeping practices. Seal cracks and crevices around your home's exterior using caulk or weather stripping to block potential entry points. Store food in airtight containers and promptly clean up spills and crumbs to eliminate food sources that attract mice.
Regularly inspect your home for signs of mouse activity and use Catchmaster glue traps as part of an integrated pest management approach.
Signs of a mouse infestation in your home can include several noticeable indicators. Common signs include small, dark droppings found in cupboards, along baseboards, or near food sources. You might also notice gnaw marks on food packaging, wires, or furniture, as mice need to chew constantly to keep their teeth sharp.
Scratching or scampering sounds, particularly at night, often coming from walls, ceilings, or under floorboards, are another sign of mouse activity. Additionally, you may find nests made from shredded paper, fabric, or insulation material, typically hidden in secluded areas. A musky odour can also develop in areas where mice are active. If you detect any of these signs, it’s important to take immediate action to address the infestation before it worsens.
Catchmaster glue traps offer an effective pest control solution without the health risks associated with chemical pesticides. They are safer for homes with children and pets, as they do not release harmful substances into the environment.
Catchmaster glue traps provide a straightforward method of capturing mice, allowing for easy disposal and reducing the need for more invasive control measures.
Catchmaster glue traps provide a non-toxic alternative to traditional mouse traps, offering a safer option for homes with children and pets. Unlike snap traps, which require precise placement and can cause injury, glue traps provide a more humane and less intrusive method of pest control.
Their ease of use and effectiveness make them an ideal choice for those seeking a reliable solution to mouse infestations.
If you suspect a mouse infestation in your walls, it's important to take immediate action. Use Catchmaster glue traps in areas where you notice signs of activity, such as droppings or gnaw marks. Seal any potential entry points and consider consulting a pest control professional for further assistance.
Regular monitoring and maintenance of your pest control measures will help prevent further infestations.
Yes, Catchmaster Glue Traps can be effectively used alongside other pest control products as part of a comprehensive pest management strategy. Glue traps can complement other methods, such as bait stations, snap traps, or rodenticides, by capturing mice that might be missed by other treatments. For instance, you can place glue traps in areas where mice travel frequently, while using bait stations in different locations to attract and eliminate rodents. However, it’s important to position the traps and other products carefully to avoid interference between them. Combining multiple pest control methods can enhance overall effectiveness, ensuring a more thorough approach to managing infestations.
