So many comments about how this trap has "flaws". It is a simple trap. It is simular to a box trap, but made from everyday household items. You could "rodent proof" it, but then it wouldn't be what it is, simple ! You could line it with wire screen,The sticks could be glued onto the outside of the bottle, you could make it battery powered, you could make it launch the mouse into space, you could go and buy a mouse trap or you could just appreciate this for what it is. A neat and cheap way to catch a mouse !
Really remarkable idea for a relatively humane mouse trap! The only issue I can see is that the mouse would probably be able to chew through the plastic if you don't get to it in time. Maybe one could set it up to make more noise when the trap goes off.
Kikyo4815 I was thinking the same thing, especially when it find the part where the bottle incision is made, this pesky little bastards can chew thru my walls within half a day.
Dustin Wrye I don't think I've ever come across an "absolutely humane" mouse trap. "Relatively", meaning in relation to less humane traps such as glue traps and traps that are generally intended to kill mice.
rob b What makes you think I'm a prepper? And why would a prepper be a human-hater? Paranoid, sure, but human-hater? They look out for themselves, is all. By your logic, everyone who uses their seat-belts hate humans, as do everyone wearing helmets, or use security harnesses... You really didn't think that post through before clicking "Reply", did you?
***** Lol I just don't have mercy for vermin, I'm not gonna catch it and release it so it can infect someone else's home and destroy their possessions.
thanks Imaginative Guy!! I have trapped 9 mice in a week!! now my house it seems to be out of mice, I'd just used 2 bottles, the first one got broken after 5 mice trapped. Very simple very cheap very awesome
+Matthew E YES! Good thing I checked the trap before it managed to chew through to escape. It had already chewed an inch when I took the trap outside about 5 minutes after it got trapped. Then it managed to escape by pushing and prying the gap open with both front and back legs! We need a better trap than that, but at least it got trapped which is a good thing!
+Matthew E Wish I could handle blood and gore.... I can't handle dead animals even one as gross as a rat. I don't like snap traps because we have stray cats around here that might get hurt in the process. I know...they should be catching rats but then there are too many rats around, they outnumber the cats. :(
Weather you set it free or end it's life, you will not have a dead rat in your home or business, at least. Also, no need to touch the animal, either way. Very good trap.
In Finland, we have a bottle deposit system, so you take the empty bottles and cans to a store, put them into the machine and get some money. :) It's unfortunate that that kind of a system is missing in so many countries...
Hello sir and thank you for shoving us this very clever trap! Please excuse all the rude kids that are commenting. They will hopefully grow out of it eventually. :)
I needed to watch the same spot a couple of additional times myself, but it is simply the one end of a paper clip that he pushed up through the hole about a 1/4 to 1/2 an inch, then attached the string loop around the clip end.
I agree. It looks like the paperclip would have to be at the very back of the bottle to avoid being pulled forward by the tension on the string. The bait would have to be very strong or tied in because mice are known to remove it from sensitive traps without setting them off. This grab and run is unusual for mice that I have dealt with. Evidenced by a "licked clean" trap.
I wish you didn't disable comments for "cable tie rat trap" I like this idea. It will hold em fast but the weight you use don't look heavy enough to hurt them. Of course Mr, Rat-tat-tat will spaz out because he is caught.
In an old house I caught 47 mice (I counted) by simply putting two liter Pepsi bottle slanting and a bait in it. The plastic was so slippery that they couldn't get out upon entering, just running in place. After a time the bottle's interior would become rough, and the bottle had to be changed. (Of course I freed them all later, at ca 150 m away from the house, across the road at litter cans)..
just make a backdoor by cutting a U form for the convenient reuse of the device and fix the door with additional clips when ready for action. that's it.
Just use a pair of gloves and a bit of bleach every time you reload it. What would be sad for me is when having to kill a living being... even this one.
line peon In my area letting rats go is not a very good option. One of two things seems to happen (I've been told by folks who seem well-versed): * They quickly find another host home. Apparently there is a neighborhood near one of our parks that gets more than its share of rats due to humane catch and release. * They become an invasive species in an area where they have few natural predators. For me, the benefit of humane traps like this is that I at least don't *torture* and then kill the animal.
You're amazing! All these ideas seem really good, i hope one of them will work. No poison or trap i tried worked so far, and the situation is getting rather nasty. Oh, and when i finally catch those mean mice, i'll feed them to my ferret. Yummy yummy! :)
Best easiest homemade humane rat trap every, I admit that a few were able to chew there way out before I got to the trap once maybe thrice but overall I manage to capture 7 rodents thanks to this trap.
I made this trap and it worked very well. The mouse even gave birth in the cage over night! I didn't know what to do with the mess so I put it in the microwave for 2 minutes. Only problem was the plastic warped badly and I couldn't reuse it. :(
That's sick. The trick is not to spend anymore money than you already have and saran wrap is not free, my friend. Something else to consider is putting the mouse in an old tube sock that is too ratty (get it?) to use anymore. Then you swing the sock around like a flail, really fast, and smack the mouse at high speeds against the table. The only problem I found with this method is I only have so many old socks.
I built one like this...caught the rat and I threw the whole bottle with the rat inside into the wood chipper that we have out here on the farm. fun fun fun
It's interesting seeing the animal activists in the comments. Of course it "looked scared", mice are on the bottom of the food chain, so literally everything (except other herbivores) hunt it down. "Poor thing was just hungry" ....You won't be saying that when you get ill after eating at a infested restaurant and making a lawsuit. They do damage to property and spread disease. Look... I like fuzzy little animals too, but there is such a thing as over population and becoming pests :/
Yeah.. I agree with u.. When they come at midnight, n cause some noise, thats really disgused. And when wake up in the morning, go to the kicthen then find some of their pup n pee.. Ohh thats make me want to take them all out of my house. They give me big troubles, and i need to make this item as soon as posibble..
***** I'm talking about countries where everyone can live 1st world lives. Not america where 80% lives in poverty with rat and cockroach infested homes.

unless you're there to retreive the bottle withing atleast 30 minutes the mice can chew threw it
Your profile picture goes so well with this comment XD
I doubt mice can do that, but rats, yes.
Well yeah, but if i was rat, i would be like, " o mu gosh im panickinggg!" And i would run around like jerry
JAJAvsWORLD you mean "at most" get ur shit straight
JAJAvsWORLD but the bottle is round so how can he chew on it
these people are really innovative when it comes to catching their food
hahahaha!
Korean never eat rat. Rather we make mustant coat with it.
i love this comment!!!
Mice now for dinner
ahahahahahha that was hilarious xD
Simple, effective, and cheap. Many thanks.

Kikyo4815 "relatively humane" mouse trap? What do you consider an "absolutely humane" mouse trap?
Dustin Wrye I don't think I've ever come across an "absolutely humane" mouse trap. "Relatively", meaning in relation to less humane traps such as glue traps and traps that are generally intended to kill mice.
+Kikyp4815
I'm saving this knowledge for post-apocalyptic life.

I love it! the mouse doesn't get hurt and you can release it in the wild after catching it. BOTH WIN!
***** but you dont boil mice? It's kind of like saying your going to boil a steak. Grill the thing.
***** Yeah well, I don't think that's compulsory, I'd release it.
So the rat can go pester someone else's home? I'd gladly brutally slaughter any vermin that enter my house :D ill send you the tails hippy
woah, I think you have an aggressiveness problem...

thanks Imaginative Guy!! I have trapped 9 mice in a week!! now my house it seems to be out of mice, I'd just used 2 bottles, the first one got broken after 5 mice trapped. Very simple very cheap very awesome
wow~~ 9 mice !!
Congratulations,
+Roderick Fernandez What food did you use as a bait ? Meat ?
+Jason Ottavi cheese !
Ok, classic !
I only use one piece of bread on every reload!
Best mouse trap ever!
+Dennis Nakashima
I am with you.
except for the fact that mouse can chew thru that bottle in no time at all

Awesome way to re-purpose plastic bottles.

nice touch with the cheering at the end. loved it 👌
Even the 6 first seconds alone are worth thumbing that up! Great work man, one of the coolest video on UA-cam.
That was the most creative, efficient, and humane trap I've ever seen! BRAVO!!
Very Good Idea Thanks for creating such a things
I absolutely love this trap. It does no harm to the mice, and it's metal free, so you can just throw the little bastard in the microwave later!
BeardedJustice Or throw it in a fire pit! MUAHAHHAHA :D
You could also do that with a metal one

Hello sir and thank you for shoving us this very clever trap! Please excuse all the rude kids that are commenting. They will hopefully grow out of it eventually. :)
you think it's funny it could kill the rat. how would you like to be stuck in a bottle?
super and simple demo. Yet I feel you ould be bit more vivid in explaining as to how to fix the bait and the hook for that.
How the fuck did I get here from a video about a guy throwing a propane tank into a volcano?
Thank u for the video suggestion
*****
Throwing water into the volcano was more impressive.
+Girom Christian Calica Beats me. I was looking for a video about Jimmy Carter, and ended up here.
+Valerie Perez You're right about that! :)
+Girom Christian Calica The question is, how do I get from here to a video about a guy throwing a propane tank into a volcano???
Some close up video of how the bait hook is made and installed would be helpful.
wow how simple. After watching the first 5 min of this vid I stopped and made one in about 6 min. Super easy!!!
I understood everything except at the part at where you put in the paperclip. A close up would have helped. Very creative trap though.
m.blog.naver.com/jcdo3810/10047052358
+Gaige Highlander *lol* it made loads of sense. it's held in by tension from the rubber bands and string. you should not need a close up.
I needed to watch the same spot a couple of additional times myself, but it is simply the one end of a paper clip that he pushed up through the hole about a 1/4 to 1/2 an inch, then attached the string loop around the clip end.
I agree. It looks like the paperclip would have to be at the very back of the bottle to avoid being pulled forward by the tension on the string. The bait would have to be very strong or tied in because mice are known to remove it from sensitive traps without setting them off. This grab and run is unusual for mice that I have dealt with. Evidenced by a "licked clean" trap.

I really like how it doesn't hurt the mouse, and it keeps it contained. But i'm really glad it doesn't hurt the mouse/rat at all
Clear, simple and very good demonstration..!
i love the sound of rain in the back ground👍
Indeed, that's one of my favourite natural melodies.
I like as well when I can hear some thunders.
Than I sleep like a baby.

how do u bend the paper clip .into an S u didnt show that past that good.

can't they chew through it?

I wish you didn't disable comments for "cable tie rat trap" I like this idea. It will hold em fast but the weight you use don't look heavy enough to hurt them. Of course Mr, Rat-tat-tat will spaz out because he is caught.
what type of bait(food) did he use to attract the rat?
I like how the mouse wasn't harmed and people are still complaining about this.
Very creative. Great job. Thanks.
nice design
What size bottle would you suggest to catch a cat? And where can I get that bottle?

rats are a pest that does not have natural predators in cities, so they MUST be put down or they will become too many.

me too. what is the name of this music?
+Jayden Alquist how old are you ? 4 ?
Man, to be honest, thought I was gonna see some vegans here complaining how you're abusing this mouse, but obviously I was wrong...
+TheCookieFreezer Since we dont see the mice dying, I dont think anybody will complain :p
My Russian hamster escaped and is under the sofa , the sofa is too heavy to move . Would this trap work?
I like! That's a good and effective humane mouse trap. After catching the mouse you can probably release it in some field. =]
or put it in a blender and drink it like a protein shake🍷🐀
So you will let him come back or terrorize other people? Kill all mice.
Great! And a good use of recycling materials. Once trapped, put tape around the bottle and reuse the rest.
The mouse was paid off to act like the trap worked.
F A K E.
you are just a mouseketeer, you love them!! MICKEY MOUSE , YOU DIRTY RAT!! GOOD BY!!!
XD
pretty cool invention the only regret is sticking your hands back in the bottle to set it up after catching a mouse
I was thinking the same!
just make a backdoor by cutting a U form for the convenient reuse of the device and fix the door with additional clips when ready for action. that's it.
Just use a pair of gloves and a bit of bleach every time you reload it.
What would be sad for me is when having to kill a living being... even this one.

there's is another one of these vids its called #WaterbottleMouse/rattrap and then click on the first one

Does it work? I'm concerned about rats chewing through the crack overnight.
I made this trap and it worked very well. The mouse even gave birth in the cage over night! I didn't know what to do with the mess so I put it in the microwave for 2 minutes. Only problem was the plastic warped badly and I couldn't reuse it. :(
The microwave part was sadistic, I'm thinking of watching it die inside the bottle.
Marley Cauffing wtf hahahaha....... i used saran wrap and slowly heated it up around the body and ............
That's sick. The trick is not to spend anymore money than you already have and saran wrap is not free, my friend. Something else to consider is putting the mouse in an old tube sock that is too ratty (get it?) to use anymore. Then you swing the sock around like a flail, really fast, and smack the mouse at high speeds against the table. The only problem I found with this method is I only have so many old socks.
hahahaha
mmm
What is this beautiful music called?
What's the song? Sounds like something you here from a movie.
btw I used Shazam from google play to find it ...
Partha Mallick what's the song called?
How did you make the bait??
I was wondering the same. Probably he bought it
cool
great idea
awesome and the rats will be ok right???
Man leave it to the asians and the cool music. I almost starting shouting and clapping at the end too!! Lol
I built one like this...caught the rat and I threw the whole bottle with the rat inside into the wood chipper that we have out here on the farm. fun fun fun

good job buddy :)
*jesus fucking christ*
i kinda want to see that
psychotic behaviour to say the least...
You are messed up.

i hope they didn't do anything bad to it after catching it and i also feel so bad for it, that mouse wanted to just have some food
Hopefully they drowned it or something.
You have no idea how bad those pests can be, a real nightmare.
Speak for your own species you filthy human
Here i am at nearly 60yrs old spending my evening watching a man messing about with a plastic bottle. Where did the high life go ?
lolol
are you still alive john
Love the detail of demo.I have got to try this in the garden. Thanks
What you showed was a Phillips screwdriver, not an awl. The last part about the bait/trigger was not clear and should be shown more clearly.
Im in the weird part of youtube again...
Me, too.
it's not weird if alot of people watch it as a helpful way to overcome rat problems
I dont think you'll overcome your rat problems with a plastic bottle 😂
I want to see, how these people that are complaining, react when there is a mouse on their kitchen
Not all of us live in third world countries with "pest"-filled homes.
