Mousetrap for live capture of mice

The innovative SWISSINNO Catch Alive mousetrap catches mice alive and allows release without contact. Insert a bait capsule and press the button to set the trap (see “Use” below). Check frequently to see if a mouse has been caught.

Catching mice alive has never been as easy with the Catch Alive trap. The functional design prevents the captured mouse from escaping. It is important, therefore, to set the mouse free as soon as possible so as not to cause it too much stress and so it is essential to check the trap often and at least every 4 hours. To avoid the mouse returning, release it more than 1km from where it was caught.

Peanut-butter bait for live capture

The food bait, which is used for in the Catch Alive trap is an attractant for mice and lures them into the trap. Our Catch Alive trap is designed for live capture with retention until release. In this way, a mouse can be easily caught and released far away so it is no longer a nuisance, without you having to touch it or come into contact with it.

The Catch Alive trap enables live capture and release. The whole trap-and-release operation is performed without the user getting close to the mouse: the captured mouse is encased in a secure container and released by means of a remote button.

Here are some of the most frequently asked questions
How does the Catch Alive Mouse Trap work?

The Catch Alive Mousetrap MouseHouse catches Mice alive to release them later.The supplied bait is made of a long lasting food based substance peanutbutter which mice find irresistible.

How long does the bait last?

The bait will last from between a few weeks to a couple of years. It will tend to disappear due to the action of insects or weather if left outside. The odour will remain, however, and it is possible to catch rodents mice even if very little of the bait appears to be left.

Where shall I put the trap?

Open the trap and place it where you suspect there are mice. As mice seldom cross open spaces, position the trap parallel to and against a wall. Check the trap at regular intervals frequently.

How often can one use the trap?

The SuperCat traps are quite sturdy and can be used many times.

Is the bait toxic?

The bait is a food-based peanut butter formulation and contains no rodenticide active substances. Because it contains peanuts, it should be kept out of reach of children and pets, especially where there are people with nut allergies.

Can the bait be replaced?

Yes, we offer replacement bait assemblies which can extend the life of the trap after all of the bait material has disappeared.

What about children and pets around traps?

Traps should be placed in locations that children and pets cannot reach, both for hygiene reasons and to avoid unintended contact with the trap or captured animals.

What about protected animals?

Some mouse species are strictly protected. In Germany, this applies to the wood mouse, the yellow-necked mouse, the dormouse and all shrew species. Just like house mice, these are attracted to the bait and could also be caught with the mousetrap. If these species are present or if this becomes apparent during the course of control, no control may be carried out or control that has already started must be stopped. Before any (further) control measures can be taken, permission must first be obtained from the relevant authority. Resettlement using live traps must also be approved first.
