Many people do not want to see animals suffer, event pests like mice. Sure, they can be annoying and disgusting but it can still feel cruel to kill them. Other people don’t necessarily feel that way about mice. They just want the problem taken care of as soon as possible, no matter how it is done. There are various kinds of mouse traps. There is a mouse trap called a mouse snap trap which can catch one mouse at a time. The mouse is killed instantly. For people who cannot stomach this method, there are other types. One such type is called a multiple wind-up mouse trap. This trap catches the mouse alive. The mouse may die inside the trap. It can get stunned from being flipped into the receiving compartment.

There are also more humane mouse traps. One of these traps is called a repeater/tin cat human mouse trap. This trap is much like the multiple wind-up mouse trap except it is non-wind-up. It catches the mouse alive and you can do with it as you please. If the mouse is left inside the trap for too long it can die of neglect. Each person can choose a way to get rid of these pests that works for them.
