Rodents, mice and other small animals can cause significant damage to your property if left to their own devices. Of course, there are many ways to efficiently remove these troublesome creatures from your home—including humane options—so they don’t continue to wreak havoc and wrack up costly repairs.

Ace Hardware carries top brands for trapping small animals, such as Havahart, Tomcat and Victor. Read below to learn more about the different animal traps available and which solution will be most effective for your infestation.

Are Animal Traps Safe for Pets?

Although many types of animal trapping solutions are unsafe for pets, Ace carries several pet-safe, humane animal traps that will leave your pets unharmed. Keep reading to learn more about the most humane types of traps for each type of pest.

What’s the Difference Between Live Animal Traps and Kill Traps?

Live traps, also known as cage traps, are humane, no-kill alternatives to traditional traps that allow you to catch unwelcome critters unharmed and safely release them into the wild or back to their owners. A live animal trap or cat trap securely holds captured animals—from rodents to stray cats to nosy raccoons—until you are ready to relocate or return them.

Kill traps, on the other hand, neutralize the target animal upon them entering the trap. Examples of kill traps include electric-powered trap kits, body trap kits, bucket mouse traps and glue traps. Although they aren’t considered humane, they efficiently and effectively stop pests from damaging your home or garden.

What Are the Different Types of Mouse and Rat Traps?

Mouse traps and rat traps come in many varieties, including kill and no-kill versions. Below is a list of some of the different kinds of rodent traps:

  • Bucket mouse trap
  • No-kill animal trap cage
  • Tunnel trap
  • Glue trap

How Does a Mouse Glue Trap Work?

Mouse glue traps use an extremely sticky adhesive, which causes the animal to get stuck on the trap once the critter runs across it. Although effective at trapping pests, glue traps are not considered humane.

What’s the Most Humane Animal Trap Cage?

Typically, the most humane way to trap and remove mice and rats is through a no-kill animal trap cage if the mice are removed from the stress-inducing trap as quickly as possible. These traps are designed with safety features like protective handles and secure door locks to help ensure you and the animal are unharmed during trapping and removal.

How Do You Use a Squirrel Trap?

While not typically considered an outdoor nuisance, squirrels can be quite aggressive, destroy gardens and frighten away welcome outdoor visitors such as birds and butterflies. Ace carries live-catch squirrel traps that are specifically designed to trap squirrels in your garden or yard without killing them.
