Strong construction but poor mechanism.
These rat cages are of strong steel construction. They actually have a lock mechanism which is probably unnessary as they have two strong springs that keep the door closed. There one drawback is that the wire that attaches to the bait is not long enough, leaving the bait suspended in the cage. I have caught several rats and a couple of mice. As it is they work quite often but would be perfect if the food attachment wire was at least an inch longer, allowing the bait to rest on the floor of the cage. This small change in design would make the difference between a 4 star score and a 5 star score. I use peanut butter on bread as bait but recently tried a small piece of bacon. Smoked bacon is good because they have a good sense of smell and it seems to overpower the human smell which they fear. Wearing latex gloves when handling the trap and bait also helps and protects against disease. They are good value as having two, doubles your chances of catching a rodent. I am averaging one per night and have caught 21 rodents in the last 3 weeks with these and one similar slightly smaller trap of different manufacture.
