These traps have nothing to do with the traditional wooden traps. Robust, easy to use and relatively cleanly separate from the dead mouse. Although never a pretty sight, so ne small mouse in a trap, but sometimes there is no alternative. Have somewhere times of "metal", but the foot is made of plastic and holds certainly not much more than a good wooden case, where there are strong differences in quality. The price is borderline - would not be so expensive, therefore four points.
