A heavyweight plastic tray built so a struggling rat cannot drag it away.

Size is the defining story here. Each trap spans 10.2 inches by 4.9 inches on a sturdy plastic tray whose weight stops rats and mice from hauling the trap off into a wall cavity as they try to escape. The adhesive is formulated to withstand cold weather, which matters if your problem is in a garage or shed rather than a heated kitchen.

This is a bait-your-own trap, so a dab of bird seed, old Christmas cookies, or peanut butter on the surface does the trick. Customers note stacking these in a square around a seed pile to clear a heavy pantry infestation, with one owner counting 18 mice caught. The non-toxic glue is safe for indoor use, and disposal means carrying the whole tray to the bin without touching the catch.

The adhesive is genuinely strong, though a few note it can be tough to remove from your own hands if you make contact — gloves are wise. One owner found it not sticky enough for a full-grown mouse in their garage, so very large rats may need a more aggressive board.

Ready to deploy in seconds — no bait, no setup, just peel and place.

This 10-pack skips all the prep work. Each trap arrives pre-baited with a peanut butter scent, so you pull it from the package and set it down the same minute the box lands. The immediate payoff is real: as owners put it, “I got it yesterday. I put it down yesterday. I caught something today.”

These 10-inch by 5-inch boards sit on a thicker plastic tray, and that extra weight keeps the trap from sliding around when a mouse hits it. Owners consistently praise the durability, calling the boards thick and the glue super strong — one apartment dweller reports mice that “can’t get out off the trap if they tried.” Because it is non-toxic and chemical-free, families and renters can use it indoors under supervision.

Stickiness is the mixed point in the feedback, with some owners finding rodents permanently stuck while others wish the tack were higher. The maker suggests positioning traps on top of magazine sheets or paper to boost adhesion. Oil-based baits should be avoided since they degrade the glue.

Tiny enough for cupboards and crawl spaces where bigger boards will not fit.

Each board here measures about 4.6 inches by 3.22 inches, making these the most compact traps in this lineup. That small footprint is the whole point — they slip flush against walls, under large kitchen appliances, and inside cupboards where a full-size board would be spotted and avoided. You get 36 of them, so spreading them along active rodent runways is easy.

The traps come pre-scented with a butter aroma and are intended to work without extra bait. The glue is a special adhesive designed to hold up in cold and wet environments, and it stays tacky for up to one year under normal conditions. The plastic build and non-toxic glue make them a safe indoor option where rodenticides or snap traps are not allowed.

This is the most honest mixed bag in the list. Some cabin reviewers point out catching one or two mice every visit, and one pantry story tells of four mice caught overnight on four traps, but other buyers found the glue weak and mice escaping with only fur left behind. The peanut butter scent also divided opinion, with some finding it unpleasant.

The 36-board workhorse that catches mice where humane cage traps come up empty.

Each trap in this 36-count box offers a glue surface that measures 4.5 inches by 6.5 inches, with the full board spanning 5.25 inches by 7.75 inches. They work flat on the floor or folded into a shape that fits active areas. The peanut butter scent is built in, and shoppers say strong results against mice, roaches, waterbugs, palmetto bugs, and crickets.

Buyers report catching around 10 mice with these boards after a humane cage trap caught nothing. Buyers describe catching around 10 mice with flat boards placed in a cage or folded in high-traffic zones after a humane cage trap caught nothing. The glue is extremely sticky, and vegetable oil frees a stuck mouse alive in under 10 seconds.

The corollary to that extreme stickiness is that releasing any non-target catch is difficult, and the boards are delicate once a creature is struggling on them. Owners also note this is not a humane kill method, so it is best for those comfortable with disposal of the whole board.

A professional-strength formula with eugenol that delivers overnight results.

This 32-count offering stands apart with a glue formula enhanced by eugenol, a compound that boosts immediate grip and gives the adhesive a stretchable hold. The boards are bait-free, relying on that enhanced stickiness plus strategic placement along walls, cupboards, kitchens, basements, and garages where rodent activity is suspected. They work flat or as a covered trap.

One owner placed boards along a wall and confirmed the problem was solved by the next morning. One owner placed boards along a wall where droppings were spotted and confirmed the problem was solved by the next morning. Buyers describe them as “super sticky,” with the memorable line that pests “check in but they don’t check out.” This is a repeat-purchase product, with one owner noting it is their third order.

This is also a pesticide-free, ready-to-use trap that catches cockroaches, spiders, and scorpions alongside mice without needing bait. The trade-off is that the 32-count unit comes as 8 packages of 4 traps each, which affects how you might distribute them across a large property.

The professional-grade board that doubles as a report card for pest activity.

This 72-count box earns its keep as a detection tool as much as a catch method. Trained pest control specialists use these boards to map where rodents are moving, placing them folded along walls, crawl spaces, garages, and under appliances to act as a “report card” for activity. Owners describe them as the stickiest traps they have used, catching bugs, spiders, scorpions, and even a small snake.

The peanut butter scent lures effectively, with owners citing a roughly 99% stick rate and rare escapes. Since mice do not die instantly, there is no death-smell that would make other rodents avoid the area — a key advantage for sustained trapping. The boards fold at the crease before you remove the cover, which keeps the glue manageable during setup.

They are non-toxic but extremely sticky, so keeping them away from pets and children matters. The light peanut butter scent means unused traps should be stored in a sealed container to preserve freshness over time.

A 75-board case that keeps its grip even where summer humidity ruins lesser glue.

This mouse-size board delivers 8-inch by 5-inch coverage with a reputation for lasting in demanding conditions. One owner reports it held up in high humidity and caught 12 or more mice plus countless insects with no escapes, making it a strong pick for damp garages and basements. The box contains 75 boards, the highest count in this lineup.

You can lay these flat against a wall or fold them into a tent shape for dusty areas, and the boards are perforated to support wall placement. The peanut butter scent is listed as non-allergenic, though some owners found the smell more noticeable than expected and recommend airing rooms initially.

Owners mention these are cheaper than store alternatives and outperform snap and spin traps that failed first. The glue is extremely sticky — one owner’s cat got stuck, which confirms the holding power but also signals care needed around pets.

Seventy-two scented boards built for scorpion season in the desert Southwest.

This is the expanded sibling of the Trapper Max 36, doubling the count to 72 peanut butter-scented boards for serious indoor coverage. The glue surface measures 4.5 inches by 6.5 inches on a board that spans 5.25 inches by 7.75 inches. In Arizona, where scorpions and ants surge before monsoon season, owners deploy these in the garage and utility room and check them weekly.

One owner set out 20 traps overnight and caught fungus flies, spiders, centipedes, and weevils, while others confirm clean mouse catches and long-term reductions in visible bugs. The value against professional exterminator visits is a recurring theme.

Stickiness earns mixed notes, with most praising the aggressive tack and a minority unimpressed. These are best used indoors, and the extreme stickiness demands careful handling — owners literally warn to handle with care.
