When they walk in to get the peanut butter, the trap tilts and the door closes. At that point it is up to you whether they live or the trap becomes their coffin. When you let the furry creature go, keep the trap. As others have noted, there are many more if there is one.Dan Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12997699918375106302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4496267973912420638.post-73820901109275317312009-01-06T21:52:00.000-05:002009-01-06T21:52:00.000-05:00Your comment made me laugh!

Well, he stays there till he slowly dies of thirst and hunger, which is really dreadful. My first choice would be a regular old mouse-trap, but that's been vetoed by my new co-workers.
