Thanks Roberta, that’s helpful. I’ll be sure to report back how we get on with them. I’m hoping the WIFI function will be a success as it would be a great time saver not having to check the traps so frequently or paying a contractor to do it! Georgia

We have had success with these traps in these buildings. We bait with peanut butter. They are an integral part of our pest management program in the historic village where we can’t ever exclude rodents from the building 100% of the time due to the nature of the buildings and their use. I hope this is helpful.

I have purchased two of these traps and am trialling them in our museum loading dock, I haven’t had any success yet but it is summer here in New Zealand which might be why. If anyone has used these electronic/wifi traps before and can offer any feedback that would be much appreciated!
