If I had mice to catch, I'd buy a few, it's truly the best one to date. I've always been partial to the bucket trap and thought about the design for some time... This one is great.
Shawn, thank you for taking time to review our trap. The video was absolutely remarkable to watch. We also want to thank all your viewers for all the great ideas and improvements they are coming up with. We are taking all their comments into consideration and hope to update our trap soon to make it even more effective. The support we are receiving is absolutely touching and we cannot tell everyone enough how much we appreciate you all. UPDATE: We apologize for the delay in inventory. Amazon is having some issues receiving our inventory due to the large influx of sales. We are now manually shipping out orders from our warehouse until further notice. Thank you for your patience
I notice how the sound of the trap door often scares off other mice. Looks like you could improve it further by adding a piece of felt or something to muffle the sound.
I was thinking the same thing. It doesn't seem to deter any mice except when multiple ones are lined up on the ladder. Rats seem to get spooked by it though. I think they're far smarter than the mice.
Vulture: "Oh, look, a pile of dead mice to eat! NICE!" Suddenly, the grass flips up and dumps the vulture into a pit of water, and the sequence's diabolical second stage is revealed. Tune in next time when the cougar says, "Oh, look, a pile of dead vultures to eat! NICE!" You won't believe how it ends!
So based on your videos I bought the flip and slide bucket trap, it showed up yesterday, I assembled it and spread some peanut butter and seed up under the hood, put this thing in my chicken coop around 7:30 pm last night, checked it a 7:00 this morning, 34 mice, now I knew there were mice in the chicken coop ( large walk in coop 8x10), but I never expected it to be this many, gonna buy at least 2 more of these, 1 for the garage and 1 for the tractor shed ( barn), thanks for the review and the recommendation, money well spent
Imagine how terrifying this would be for the last mouse of the night. You come along, looking for a snack when all of the sudden the floor gives out and you fall into a pool deeper than your entire body 40 dead or dying mice in the water around you. What a nightmare
That's what I was thinking when I saw the raccoons. A large one for the raccoons> Feed the raccoons to the coyotes. Then a larger one for the coyotes > Feed the coyotes to the mountain lions. Then a still larger one for the mountain lions> Feed the lions to the bears. And if the Bears win the Super Bowl, that's the end of the line. If not, call in the vultures. . . . .
Some fifty years ago my late grandmother had probably 10, maybe more, similar DIY trap buckets on her land. We gradually quit it when the catch became mostly baby hedgehogs rather than mice. It appeared that as the trees in the area matured, the former field became a forest, and hedgehogs took over and drove away smaller rodents.
Lol! He kinda did too now that you mention it. He was down right excited! Lol! I imagine him screaming like a true warrior while he did so! Aaaaaaaaaggh!
Dang, all gone til the end of the month! Sucks for me, but I'm happy for RinneTraps. Truly proves the old adage of "Build a better mousetrap and the world will beat a path to your door." 😂
@@Dosbomber Dang! I just checked into Shawn’s Amazon link and NaDa is what one will find there. That’s awesome fir the Seller and the lucky ones who were buyers.
It’s very important to never use cream to try and drown the mice. A particularly ambitious mouse with a “never give up” attitude could actually churn the cream into butter and simply walk out.
I bet even just a piece of tape would be enough not to get that mad bang when it resets, I noticed that was the only thing deterring the mice. Also, why not spray a little oil on there so they slip easier.
I bought the flip n slide for my RV that was sitting idle all winter. It caught 23 mice (I live in the country). This is by far the best trap I have ever used.
@@luvluvluvluvcats the man making the video is adding water to the buckets to kill them = drowning. Is the guy commenting on this sarcastically perhaps?
I made a slightly crude plywood version of this and managed to catch at least 6 field mice from my workshop. I put in a very small magnetic under the base of the ramp which makes the ramp drop without warning. This stops mice "feeling" for the balance point
I love how you release the native mice. A super effective trap that doesn’t use poison and give the option of a live or kill trap? Amazing. I also love how you feed the killed mice to other animals. Helping the local wildlife!
The way you always take care to mention how you don’t want your pet mice being harmed, so you’ll be placing in some cloth to cushion the drop reminds me so much of the time Mr. Rogers received a letter from a blind kid who was worried he was forgetting to feed his fish, so he always made sure to say he was feeding the fish when he did so. It’s a lovely little bit of kindness!
Yes, but those are his pet mice. The wild ones drown in creosote in the bucket. (Not). My kids loved Mr. Rogers. So calm. Candid Camera once tried to trick him into getting angry. They failed. He was so real.
It would somewhat help. Another factor that effected the spread was how unhygienic people were back then. So while the trap would also effect the fleas that were being carried by the rats , the plague would still be an issue.

There was evidence of it not working as the peanut butter was eaten clean without a catch. I did catch a few chipmunks until the plank warped from heat and they would no longer walk it. Also, rodents began chewing through the lid to eat the peanut butter from the top.
@@ICEknightnine no you see it in a lot of other videos that rats usually do not fall for the same trap twice and if they see another rat get trapped they'll be extra careful and usually will stay away. Mice just seem to pile themselves on and on with no regard to what just happened to a fellow mouse.
Yeah, it’s what makes them so hard to get rid of. When we’ve had rat problems we’ve never caught more that 2 on any kind of trap because they learn how to avoid them. They’ve tripped snap trips without being caught, flipped over glue traps, and just avoided those spinner traps over similar buckets. Guess I’ll have to try this one next.
@@TheDevilsbard i think the best would be electrocution. To have a really really large board llaced jn a rokm the rats frequent that shocks them dead when stepped on. Since the board would be very large, I'm guessing the rags won't stay away from jt like they would from a small trap
There was this video of a rat using a stick to set off a snap trap on youtube. I live in the city and a rat got in during lockdown. It somehow managed to eat off the snap trap I bought. We finally caught it using a cage trap after leaving the trap unset for 3 days. Set it free in front of 3 useless cats which couldn't even catch it.
Make sure to put some water in the bucket so that they would drown and don't ever let any of them go into the woods or into somebody else's neighborhood like those idiots! We need to get rid of them, not let them multiply and expand their ranges!
@@grandwonder5858 the only ones he lets go are the native mice. Any invasive/house mice he catches he just kills with CO2, since they would be destructive if released
@@tabs41 CO2 is a more humane and discerning way to take care of the mice than drowning them, if you care about the mice and their impact on the ecosystem.
these are the best kind of mouse traps. Don't need power, don't require to be re-set, work unattended, and what is more important, are able to catch multiple mice.
I have been battling a smart guy for a few weeks now. He managed to get free from a glue trap and hasn't fallen for it twice. I got one of these based off this video, set it up and got them. It took a few days for them to take the bait but they finally fell for it. Thanks for the recommendation!
Think that we've got a more crafty mouse. We suspect that it whipped its tail against the side of the spring traps, setting them off, then leisurely licked off the bait.
there are seniors other than myself that live totally live on just over ten thousand a year. to be able to spend a thousand on food that i liked instead of food bank out dated food or out of the country brands scary thick cans . maybae your guys could get a hobby to feed the seniors in your area real food again instead of mouse traps i could cry
I suspect you might be able to improve the performance (in live trap mode) slightly by doing 2 things: - Put something on the lid to quiet the sound when the flip resets so they don't get scared off, like some rubber tape where the flip hits - Put a couple tiny slits near the bottom of the bucket and a bit of food in there so trapped mice act like a "stool pidgeon" and attract more (live mice inside with food makes it seem safer to new mice coming in)
@@karmaticwolf6026 mice curiosity. They'd see one of their own luxuriously staying in there surrounded by food and naturally look for a way in. The certainty in knowing the presence of other mice in the bucket makes them less hesitant in going in.
I bought this trap two years ago. It did great. This year we got eight mice in one night. So far this winter season (2022-23) we’ve caught 25 mice. It works wonderfully.
Contrary to popular belief Tom and Jerry are actually best friends, Tom only pretends to hate Jerry because if he doesn't his owner will replace him with a cat that will actually kill Jerry
As far as completely passive single moving part contraptions go, this one did surprisingly well. For the mice that learned balance, this trap could use a magnetic retention so once mice pass the tipping point and the magnet lets go, there is no turning back until the mouse drops off.
A strange building appears overnight, with mousetraps stuck under the roof, held in place by peanut butter. One day later, Mr. Woods and the building have mysteriously disappeared. The super raccoons eat very well that night.
In the middle of the night, Shawn's disrupted sleep abruptly came to an end. Gasping for air, covered in sweat, his recurring nightmares struck him again. Angered but not yet reassured, he reached for the lightswitch on his nightstand in a desperate attempt to appease the burning, pounding sensation that just wouldn't leave his chest. A weak glow lit the room, just enough to see it: the outlined figure of the Four-Footer, King of all Rats, holding a Desert Eagle.
Imagine being those racoons. Scavenging for food when you stumble upon a pile of presoaked meat things. You're approaching the gift from heaven when the surreal nature of the scene hits you. These mice were drowned, a lot of mice were drowned, in the middle of a field. What did this? WHY? That's some slender man nonsense there. Humans are eldritch horrors to mice.
@@kittenmimi5326 tell that to any animal that's been poisoned. Theyhave no way of knowing how why or where this stuff came from, or if it's gonna kill them. We work in mysterious ways.
Racoons and a Vulture, wow. I recently discovered my Moms apartment is infested. Shes been in a nursing home so I setup some snap traps. Not sure how many yet. I will try this next
It will have to be both taller and deeper for rats, as they are much longer and bottom heavy than mice. The lid and trapdoor dimensions will need to be scaled up at least 2x otherwise heavy bum + long reach neck = trap defeat. That big rat could reach right in whilst still partially stood on the ranp!
This video clip makes it look like there’s a super exclusive mouse party and the only way to get into the club is to go through the trap door at the top of the bucket
That trap seems to have the advantage of not letting the rodents see down into the bucket, and giving them a sheltered-looking area to get trapped in. Maybe a magnet would help catch the smarter mice. The raccoons and vultures should be offering a commission to anyone who buys this trap.
The "flip-floor" needs a damper, so that, when it drops and snaps back into place, there is no clicking sound that could scare away some of the rodents. Also, the trap door could be more stable at the middle, so that the mouse will go completely towards the tip, before gravity takes it down. A few mice seemed to find the perfect balancing point where they would not fall. A delayed drop, along with a rubber damper to make it silent, perhaps?
nice idea. Personally I'd add a sponge like material on specific gaps to supress the hitting noise, so the mice are less afraid. But after all it's a nice idea.
Personally you would have never thought about it because it would have been invented already or you would have invented it already so personally you would have never done nothing
Ordered one of these on Amazon and it’s showing it not shipping for a couple weeks. Just a heads up to anyone wanting one. Maybe this video pumped up the sales and they have to play catch-up lol!
We would probably be suspicious about how unsteady the floor feels But a few idiots whould fall for it Just swap the peanut butter for fortnite giftcards
These with buckets or oil drums are so easy to make for anyone. Search DIY mouse or rat traps with balance lid. It will show you step by step if you cant figure it out. Relocation is great for mice and rats. Tke them for a drive out to the country or along a beach ⛱️ and set them free!!! ❤❤❤
This is the type of thing that nightmares are made of. Imagine having mice problems and having these set up all over the your property when the in-laws come to visit. Put on a horror flick to entertain them then have a nice stroll before turning into bed.
Wow! This looks amazing! I've tried my 'homemade' version, but his eliminates all the 'issues' mine had. I've ordered one today from their site through your link. I'm a firm believer in supporting small businesses and excellent YT creators. Thanks so much! KW
Shawn, I totally agree that this is the most effective, clean, simple and easy to catch mice. My mouse count is over 30 now and as the cold weather and snow hit, I've not seen a single mouse in the house. I do however keep catching them outside. I now have two flip n slide traps working outside. I couldn't be happier. Thank you and Rinne Corp for testing and producing this trap. Happy New Year from Mousachusetts, 🐁🐀🐭🐀🐭 🇺🇲
Do you place the Flip n Slide outside the place where you think they are getting in? I like the idea of putting it outside, but I would have to keep clear of snow.
Why catch them outside? I don't think that's fair. Outside is neutral territory. This trap is so effective, you could just be catching the ones that get inside and control them effectively.
I bought this trap for my summer house. I placed it in the garage as I figured mice might use my garage as a source of heat during autumn. I found 5 mice in the bucket when I checked in on it today after 2 weeks. Great trap!
Shawn, I sincerely hope that the manufacturer offered some compensation for the explosion of business that your video was a catalyst for! You deserve it. Now for the RAT traps - that is what I needed for the roof rats.
Very efficient trap, at this level of catches, it's called a genocide :D I love the fact that you're feeding wild animals with the caught mice, it's nice to see them.
you forgot about one of most important rules of youtube - never use fingers to open plastic wrap. you need to use dynamite, two man seesaw, scythe, mill, a car, sawzilla, eventually sharpened peace of wood with metal on top
I got mine this week. I noticed that the mice were able to get to the bait without dumping them in. I think it's because they have a little bit of quality control issues with this item, where the thing isn't quite balanced right. I also noticed it seemed to almost vacuum seal itself when it rebounded. I decided to tape a penny under the flapper, so that it will actuate quicker. We will see if that works. There also seems to be some flash on the pivot points which may be keeping it from rotating freely. I will touch that up with some sandpaper, if the penny trick doesn't seem to work.
@@s.i.m.poster6823 I ordered it from the link on Sean's website, so yeah. Since then I just polished the pivot points with some sandpaper to remove the parting lines. It works now, but I still have only caught one mouse in it.
Needs a tailored adjustment option to ensure you are able to catch whatever species you are hunting for to be successful. 1 is a good thing maybe you don't have that many?

@@ICEknightnine no you see it in a lot of other videos that rats usually do not fall for the same trap twice and if they see another rat get trapped they'll be extra careful and usually will stay away. Mice just seem to pile themselves on and on with no regard to what just happened to a fellow mouse.
Yeah, it’s what makes them so hard to get rid of. When we’ve had rat problems we’ve never caught more that 2 on any kind of trap because they learn how to avoid them. They’ve tripped snap trips without being caught, flipped over glue traps, and just avoided those spinner traps over similar buckets. Guess I’ll have to try this one next.
@@TheDevilsbard i think the best would be electrocution. To have a really really large board llaced jn a rokm the rats frequent that shocks them dead when stepped on. Since the board would be very large, I'm guessing the rags won't stay away from jt like they would from a small trap
There was this video of a rat using a stick to set off a snap trap on youtube. I live in the city and a rat got in during lockdown. It somehow managed to eat off the snap trap I bought. We finally caught it using a cage trap after leaving the trap unset for 3 days. Set it free in front of 3 useless cats which couldn't even catch it.
It’s official, after all this time you’ve sold me on a trap.
Same. I need to get me one of these. Or hell might build my own with the same design. Not for resale of course
Make sure to put some water in the bucket so that they would drown and don't ever let any of them go into the woods or into somebody else's neighborhood like those idiots! We need to get rid of them, not let them multiply and expand their ranges!
@@grandwonder5858 the only ones he lets go are the native mice. Any invasive/house mice he catches he just kills with CO2, since they would be destructive if released
But...you still have to KILL the mouse
@@tabs41 CO2 is a more humane and discerning way to take care of the mice than drowning them, if you care about the mice and their impact on the ecosystem.
I like the dignity of this trap. it doesn't show the rats/mice struggling, just a bump noise and a resetting, empty platform.
And if you put water in the bucket it’s free swimming lessons for all!
these are the best kind of mouse traps. Don't need power, don't require to be re-set, work unattended, and what is more important, are able to catch multiple mice.
and very quiet
Just make sure to kill them before they dig a hole on the trap

I have been battling a smart guy for a few weeks now. He managed to get free from a glue trap and hasn't fallen for it twice. I got one of these based off this video, set it up and got them. It took a few days for them to take the bait but they finally fell for it. Thanks for the recommendation!
they fell for it. punny

No such thing- your fighting at least 50.
That’s gotta be disgusting to clean and dispose of , yuck
Think that we've got a more crafty mouse. We suspect that it whipped its tail against the side of the spring traps, setting them off, then leisurely licked off the bait.
This guy spending over ten thousand dollars a year on mousetraps makes me feel much better about how much I spend on my hobbies.

Still youre here watching his video and helping him earn more .
I suspect you might be able to improve the performance (in live trap mode) slightly by doing 2 things:
- Put something on the lid to quiet the sound when the flip resets so they don't get scared off, like some rubber tape where the flip hits
- Put a couple tiny slits near the bottom of the bucket and a bit of food in there so trapped mice act like a "stool pidgeon" and attract more (live mice inside with food makes it seem safer to new mice coming in)
Why would you need slits at the bottom?
@@karmaticwolf6026 mice curiosity. They'd see one of their own luxuriously staying in there surrounded by food and naturally look for a way in. The certainty in knowing the presence of other mice in the bucket makes them less hesitant in going in.
You coild also give them some food at the bottom so they don’t starve cuz these poor animals have to deal with enough bs
Marrow Skellington yep that’s true they are smart creatures
@@deleteduser3455 ...not if there is water in the bucket. Besides the trap is just the lid, it is up to the buys how they set the trap.

@@RinneTraps They are out, ship more please.
I bought this trap two years ago. It did great. This year we got eight mice in one night. So far this winter season (2022-23) we’ve caught 25 mice. It works wonderfully.
What do you do with them after?
@@JG-no4qrprobably kill them and feed them to wild life if there invasive
If only Tom knew about this, Jerry might have been a thought of the past.
Contrary to popular belief Tom and Jerry are actually best friends, Tom only pretends to hate Jerry because if he doesn't his owner will replace him with a cat that will actually kill Jerry
Yes there are some occasions that tom and jerry save each other
Lets keep this trap hidden from Tom . We want Jerry around for a loog long time
Everyone else spending $50k buying cars and real estates..
Shawn : I spend them on mousetraps.
hes probably writing them off as a business expense for his youtube channel "business" therefore getting them free
what real estate costs only 50k?
you must live in a Detroit district
He gets to write them off as business expense from the channel income. Double win. Not every hobbyist gets to do that.
With 50k you could have a Tiny house with 2 car garage and a man/mouse cave with separate videographer & rodent trap storage space!
As far as completely passive single moving part contraptions go, this one did surprisingly well. For the mice that learned balance, this trap could use a magnetic retention so once mice pass the tipping point and the magnet lets go, there is no turning back until the mouse drops off.
That magnet would prevent the trap from resetting.
I think a simpler solution would be to put a slippery material like Teflon on the board
The mice don't live long enough to learn to balance on this thing.
@@Santi-bt7if No, it wouldnt.
@@Santi-bt7if How? If anything it would reset faster because it wouldn't bounce.
I like how mouse #28 even knew the thing was unstable, had the chance to escape, and just was like "but what if I try that... again"
I don't even own a house or deal with mice but this was cool to watch

Eventually, there will only be super rodents around Mr. Woods' estate; then, the real fun begins.
Hahahah!!
A strange building appears overnight, with mousetraps stuck under the roof, held in place by peanut butter.
One day later, Mr. Woods and the building have mysteriously disappeared. The super raccoons eat very well that night.
In the middle of the night, Shawn's disrupted sleep abruptly came to an end. Gasping for air, covered in sweat, his recurring nightmares struck him again. Angered but not yet reassured, he reached for the lightswitch on his nightstand in a desperate attempt to appease the burning, pounding sensation that just wouldn't leave his chest. A weak glow lit the room, just enough to see it: the outlined figure of the Four-Footer, King of all Rats, holding a Desert Eagle.
I have no doubt this is how supervilains are created.
That's when we break out the flamethrowers.
Imagine being those racoons. Scavenging for food when you stumble upon a pile of presoaked meat things. You're approaching the gift from heaven when the surreal nature of the scene hits you. These mice were drowned, a lot of mice were drowned, in the middle of a field. What did this? WHY? That's some slender man nonsense there. Humans are eldritch horrors to mice.
Oh cmon food is food
@@kittenmimi5326 tell that to any animal that's been poisoned. Theyhave no way of knowing how why or where this stuff came from, or if it's gonna kill them. We work in mysterious ways.
im surprised humans havent brought mice to extinction at this point mice are just so good at not all dying at once
I don't think they really care. They see food, they eat.
No questions asked! Only humans complicate things.
I didn't know raccoons ate rat or mouse
Racoons and a Vulture, wow. I recently discovered my Moms apartment is infested. Shes been in a nursing home so I setup some snap traps. Not sure how many yet.
I will try this next
Interesting how these simple traps are the ones that catch the most.
I bet if you added some soft pads to the back to stop it from slapping so loud it wouldn’t scare them away so often.
i was thinking some sort of rubberization
@@MrFiddleedee just a bit foam on the contact point
The makers should either increase the height of the dome or make the height adjustable to allow catching rats and other larger pest.
It will have to be both taller and deeper for rats, as they are much longer and bottom heavy than mice. The lid and trapdoor dimensions will need to be scaled up at least 2x otherwise heavy bum + long reach neck = trap defeat. That big rat could reach right in whilst still partially stood on the ranp!
@@Danbotology... that sounded hilarious. Good idea though. I got a mental picture of the rat.
Rats are big enough to knock over the bucket or climb out again. Rats are brutal.
That gigantic rat could probably make cats run away lol
Should be called the "toilet seat" as it gives a perfect flush every time.
classic
also because it freaking looks like one
and it is a dry toilet as well to avoid spoiling good water
They should make a model with a sound effect!
I think to improve the design further, you should add a noise insulator where the plank resets so it doesn't make a sound and scares off other mice
Damn that bucket on a next level kill streak
This video clip makes it look like there’s a super exclusive mouse party and the only way to get into the club is to go through the trap door at the top of the bucket
Mouse #19 could have been saved by his buddy, but he panicked and ran.
That trap seems to have the advantage of not letting the rodents see down into the bucket, and giving them a sheltered-looking area to get trapped in. Maybe a magnet would help catch the smarter mice. The raccoons and vultures should be offering a commission to anyone who buys this trap.
You could probably alter the center of gravity slightly outward by adding some weights under the other side of the flapper. Then it would tip later.
Not sure about worlds greatest trap but I am sure that was the worlds most mice infested chicken coop.
Looks like they need a couple of farm cats.
@@Woodman-Spare-that-tree I don't know the size of those big rats, the cats might be dinner lol.
Not only that, but in one scene it was inside of a car! That farm must be chock full of meeses.
Have you ever spent time on a farm? That was nothing.
@@user-vp1sc7tt4m You obviously haven't, my chickens eat all the mice.
The "flip-floor" needs a damper, so that, when it drops and snaps back into place, there is no clicking sound that could scare away some of the rodents. Also, the trap door could be more stable at the middle, so that the mouse will go completely towards the tip, before gravity takes it down. A few mice seemed to find the perfect balancing point where they would not fall. A delayed drop, along with a rubber damper to make it silent, perhaps?
Good idea. Some foam weatherstripping tape ought to do the trick as a damper.
nice idea. Personally I'd add a sponge like material on specific gaps to supress the hitting noise, so the mice are less afraid. But after all it's a nice idea.
I've seen little rectangular sticky-backed foam rubber pads that would probably work great for that.
Personally you would have never thought about it because it would have been invented already or you would have invented it already so personally you would have never done nothing
@@Calamity_Jack Bingo.
@@GudJonnyCakes damn 🤣😅🤦♂️
Need larger version to fit a 20/30 gal drum with a taller top to catch large rats. This is a great design.
I was thinking the same.
Bro this thing is DEVASTATING. Once they fix the noise that it makes, it's gonna take out entire "mischiefs" at a time. Brilliant stuff!
Come join the pool Party! Drop-ins welcome. No RSVP needed. 😂
I love how the mice don’t go to waste 👍🏾
The raccoons come up to a bunch of cold, dead, water logged mice, and are like, "Mmmmm, eating fancy tonight!" Cracks me up.
One tiny improvement could be made tho: a small piece of soft rubber at the impact point as the trap swings back up, so it doesn't make a loud noise
I also thought that while watching the video.
@@daGoattttttttt everything gets improved on. The rubber tip is a fantastic idea, you're just a status quo coomer
Ordered one of these on Amazon and it’s showing it not shipping for a couple weeks. Just a heads up to anyone wanting one. Maybe this video pumped up the sales and they have to play catch-up lol!

It's like a mouse drive through! They just keep coming!
This is actually simpler than today's actual mouse traps.
lol. This is an actual mouse trap. You mean common standard mouse traps.
it's more effective too
I have accidentally caught mice in buckets. Leave an open bucket with something smelly in it, and give them a way in, and you have yourself some mice.
They don't work
That was a big rat. They are both smart enough to avoid it if they see one trapped already. Does that happen?
Maybe adding a little bit of cooking oil to the trap door might help keep some of them from escaping.

The funny thing is a massive version would work on humans as long as they weren't able to see each other going through or hear the screaming >.

These with buckets or oil drums are so easy to make for anyone. Search DIY mouse or rat traps with balance lid. It will show you step by step if you cant figure it out. Relocation is great for mice and rats. Tke them for a drive out to the country or along a beach ⛱️ and set them free!!! ❤❤❤
This is the type of thing that nightmares are made of. Imagine having mice problems and having these set up all over the your property when the in-laws come to visit. Put on a horror flick to entertain them then have a nice stroll before turning into bed.
That's awesome! I've seen ramps up to buckets, with various ways to hold the bait, but this looks so much easier!
Wow! This looks amazing! I've tried my 'homemade' version, but his eliminates all the 'issues' mine had. I've ordered one today from their site through your link. I'm a firm believer in supporting small businesses and excellent YT creators. Thanks so much! KW
That was the best trap I've seen so far. Shawn should keep a running scoreboard on them.
Shawn, I totally agree that this is the most effective, clean, simple and easy to catch mice. My mouse count is over 30 now and as the cold weather and snow hit, I've not seen a single mouse in the house. I do however keep catching them outside. I now have two flip n slide traps working outside. I couldn't be happier. Thank you and Rinne Corp for testing and producing this trap. Happy New Year from
Mousachusetts, 🐁🐀🐭🐀🐭 🇺🇲
Do you eat them after you catch them?
Omg Im getting swamped.....glad your getting through.....
Do you place the Flip n Slide outside the place where you think they are getting in? I like the idea of putting it outside, but I would have to keep clear of snow.
@@nikosgrigorakos Damn well better or releasing them after or that right there would be F-ed up!
Why catch them outside? I don't think that's fair. Outside is neutral territory. This trap is so effective, you could just be catching the ones that get inside and control them effectively.
By now, there should be no more mice left in his area.
I bought this trap for my summer house. I placed it in the garage as I figured mice might use my garage as a source of heat during autumn. I found 5 mice in the bucket when I checked in on it today after 2 weeks. Great trap!
Shawn, I sincerely hope that the manufacturer offered some compensation for the explosion of business that your video was a catalyst for! You deserve it. Now for the RAT traps - that is what I needed for the roof rats.
Very efficient trap, at this level of catches, it's called a genocide :D
I love the fact that you're feeding wild animals with the caught mice, it's nice to see them.
I don’t know why, but I did not catch one rat
Mouse #1: I bet you can't get to that peanut butter
Mouse #2: Hold my cheese
Nice, when is the rat version coming out
They should upsize one that fits on a 45 g. or 50g. round garbage cans. That should handle big rats and other rodents.
Mouse 2 is auditioning for her own #....
We need this in Australia with our Mouse Plague...
10k per year on mouse traps lol. That’s some serious dedication

I got mine this week. I noticed that the mice were able to get to the bait without dumping them in. I think it's because they have a little bit of quality control issues with this item, where the thing isn't quite balanced right. I also noticed it seemed to almost vacuum seal itself when it rebounded. I decided to tape a penny under the flapper, so that it will actuate quicker. We will see if that works. There also seems to be some flash on the pivot points which may be keeping it from rotating freely. I will touch that up with some sandpaper, if the penny trick doesn't seem to work.
Are you sure you got it from Rinne Corp? He mentions several knock offs that have issues in a later video.
@@s.i.m.poster6823 I ordered it from the link on Sean's website, so yeah. Since then I just polished the pivot points with some sandpaper to remove the parting lines. It works now, but I still have only caught one mouse in it.
It's not mice taking the bait. Or squirrels like someone else mentioned 🤦♂️ It will be bugs, probably cockroaches.
Chinese junk
Needs a tailored adjustment option to ensure you are able to catch whatever species you are hunting for to be successful. 1 is a good thing maybe you don't have that many?
There are a lot of similar home made traps that basically work on the same idea. The advantage to this one is one doesn't have to build anything
I honestly thought if was a just rubbish bin.
