Product Information
Full details
This ready-baited rat trap station from The Big Cheese is designed for homeowners seeking a fast and reliable solution for indoor or outdoor rodent problems. Its key benefit is an effective, poison-free prune-based attractant that ensures humane pest control. A potential caveat is that it requires re-baiting with a separate attractant for continued use. The trap features a lockable station for safety, durable construction, and a simple one-touch activation and disposal system.

FAQs
Is the attractant safe for pets?
The trap uses a poison-free prune-based attractant. However, the lockable station is designed to prevent pets from accessing the trap mechanism directly.
How often should I check the trap?
It is recommended to check the trap at least once every 24 hours, or more frequently in areas of high rodent activity, to ensure humane disposal and timely re-baiting if necessary.
Can this trap be used outdoors?
Yes, the trap is made from durable, weather-resistant plastic and is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.
What should I do if the trap is empty but I see signs of rats?
Try moving the trap to a different location where rodent activity is evident, or replace the attractant with a fresh one as it may have lost its potency.
How do I dispose of a captured rat?
The trap is designed for contactless disposal. Unlock the station, and use the click mechanism to dispose of the captured pest safely and hygienically.
Do I need to buy more bait?
The trap comes ready-baited. For continued use after the initial bait is depleted, you will need to purchase The Big Cheese Mouse and Rat Attractant (STV163) separately.
Troubleshooting
Trap is not being triggered
Ensure the trap is placed along rodent pathways and that the attractant is fresh and visible. Check that the station is properly closed and locked, allowing pest access.
Children or pets are able to access the trap mechanism
Verify that the station is securely locked. If access is still possible, relocate the trap to a more inaccessible area for pets and children.
No signs of rodent activity after several days
Try re-baiting the trap with fresh attractant or repositioning it in a different location where rodent activity has been observed.
