I puchased the trap, first it was dificullt to set it up and at the same time install tha bate on the tray. This trap has two sides for the animal to enter, and there is only one entrac emight catch the chicmunk, or mouse, the other dor, animal can enter and stand on the trap tray and eat the bate and go out without being cut.
Problem: The trap is to short for the small animals to be cut, because the tail of the animal prevents the the trap door close properly, therfore the animal can scape the trap everytime. The trap should have been 13-14" long to acommodate for the tail. I am sorry to purchase a toy rather then a trap. I waisted alot of nuts
 Choose # 1020 to Catch Very Small Rodents! August 25, 2010
Brian from Baltimore (Baltimore, MD)
Poisoned rodents decimate raptor (birds of prey) populations. Therefore, I wanted to make an environmentally sound decision in getting rid of the mouse in my house. I wanted to avoid resorting to killing, and also had the safety and welfare of my pet parrots in mind also. Havahart was highly recommended to me, but my mistake was in choosing a model designed for larger rodents; while the trap worked, the mouse was able to get through the holes, and so capture efforts were unsuccessful. I contacted Havahart, and they recommended the #1020 model; it's a lot smaller than the picture shows; the holes are very small and tight, effectively preventing a small rodent's escape. I set the trap last night and baited with peanut butter and a piece of millet. By this morning, I'd caught the mouse alive. I transported it to a forest preserve and released it. Now, if he's consumed by raptors or fox, he'll make a safe meal. Thank you, Havahart! If the mice you have are small, then get the # 1020 model, and you won't be sorry. It's safe, it's effective, and it works beautifully!
9/1/2010: Editing this review to report that in less than 24 hours, I successfully captured 2 more mice with this trap! I released each safely into wilderness areas. Successful strategy: use honey to coat bait platform; then add seed, cereal, etc. Works like a charm because the food sticks to the honey, and mouse licking the honey detonates the trap; in my experience works a lot better (and is a lot less messy!) than peanut butter! Happy trapping! Cheers!
The mice now live elsewhere August 19, 2010

Bought this item to eradicate a mouse problem in my basement. Within 45 minutes of set up, mouse #1 was caught and released to the wild. Within hours of the next 7 settings, mice were caught and released unharmed.
It has been 36 hours since the last setting, and looks like the problem has been solved.
Well worth the investment, and my spouse is no longer calling me a killer.
NOT A RAT TRAP August 7, 2010

NOT A RAT TRAP.!!! NO RESPECTING RAT WILL GET CAUGHT IN THIS TRAP. AND IF IT DOES... IT WIL LOOSE ITS TAIL - A SURE DEATH THREAT IF YOU WANT TO CATCH & RELEASE. SHOULD HAVE READ THE REVIEWS ON THIS ONE. SHAME ON THE SELLER TO SAY THAT THIS IS A "RAT TRAP." IF YOU WANT TO CATCH A RAT THIS IS NOT FOR YOU. THE BOX EVEN INDICATES THAT IT IS FOR MICE AND SIMULIAR SIZE RODANTS.

This worked very well catching the family of mice that moved in behind our sink. These traps do take some getting used to in terms of learning how to set them correctly - especially the very small traps may need some adjustments to the metal arms, but once they are set right they do the job.
Getting the right sized trap is important - too big and the little animal will not trigger it, too small and the big animal's size prevents it from latching shut.
Mice like plain, white bread or peanut butter. Not cheese!
I recommend putting the trap on newspaper, as mice will defecate when they are frightened and it rolls out of the cage onto the surface the trap is on. When the mouse is in there you can put the trap into a shoe-box or similar sized box to transport somewhere to release.
These only catch one at a time. If you are dealing with an infestation you may need to tackle it in a different manner.
