1. Push the lever down and remove the red protective cap from the bait. NOTE: The trap will not lock automatically if the protective cap is not removed.
2. Place the trap by a wall with its open end sideways to the wall (mice seldom wander into open spaces).
3. Hold the trap up and press the lever on the back to discharge the dead mouse simply and quickly without touching it.

Our latest addition to the SuperCat range is this revolutionary mousetrap with its inovative smart catch system trigger mechanism combined with the increased power hammer-blow killing strike. This new design is accurate and only activates when it will kill the mice instantly and humanely without them getting caught and suffering pain and distress. The integrated bait is made of a peanut butter formula which mice find irresistible. There are no poisons in the bait. The trap is extremely handy and can be used immediately.
Gloves should always be worn when working with traps. It's not about the human smell on the traps. Rats and mice that live in and around buildings are not afraid of human smells. Wearing protective gloves is important for hygienic reasons. Mice and rats, whether dead or alive, can transmit dangerous pathogens through contact with fur or body fluids. Gloves protect against infection.
As long as the bait is sealed with the original cap, it will last for years. After removing the cap, the bait is attractive for weeks to months
Yes they can! Whenever bait is missing, it should be refilled. When using the traps outdoors, the bait is sometimes eaten up by ants, snails or other animals within one night. Swissinno offers practical replacement bait syringes, with which you can very easily re-bait the trap.
Yes, we offer replacement bait syringes which will extend the life of the trap for multiple use, after all of the bait has disappeared.
It is better to set several traps, even if you suspect only one mouse. In the case of a stronger infestation, several traps should be set up anyway.
The attraction of the bait is only 1-2 meters. Place the traps where the mice really run or where mouse tracks can be seen (excrement pellets, gnawing marks). Mice run mostly along walls, rarely across open spaces. Always place the traps on the side of walls or in corners, not in the middle of the room.
Mice often wander back and forth between indoors and outdoors. Therefore, setting traps on the outside of the building can speed up the fight.
The SuperCat traps are very robust and can be used many times.
Yes, we offer replacement bait assemblies which can extend the life of the trap after all of the bait material has disappeared.
This happens occasionally. There are various reasons for this:
Check the latch to see whether it releases easily or is jammed. Thorough cleaning can sometimes fix the malfunction. Defective traps should no longer be used. In most cases, however, snails or ants are to blame for the loss of bait. It can help to place the trap in a different location. If snails were on the trap, you can tell by dried slime traces and snail droppings..
The mousetrap PRO SuperCat is safe for children and pets. But for reasons of hygiene, it makes sense to place traps out of the reach of children and pets.
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 nature conservation authority. Resettlement using live traps must also be approved first.
According to our research and observations, used traps that smell like mice are more interesting and better accepted. The smell of a dead mouse does not bother the animals. The traps should therefore only be cleaned if they are very dirty and malfunctions may occur. To do this, clean the trap with warm water and a soft brush without soap, dry it and then refill it with bait. Wear gloves when working with traps for hygiene reasons.
Check traps set at least once a day. This is important or mandatory for a number of reasons: Dead mice can be disposed of before decomposition begins. In rare cases, mice caught in the trap are not killed immediately, only injured. Then they must be removed. Traps can be re-baited, reset or relocated to better locations as required.
No, the bait is a natural food based product containing no poisons and is safe around children and pets. The bait contains nuts and nut allergy sufferers should be cautious.
