man let me tell you.. i came home and unexpectedly saw a mouse in my room. upsetting bc i keep it clean. googled and saw this video, set up the trap, smoked a blunt outside for about 15 mins, came back in & the mouse was caught. big s/o to u bro
@shinola228 turns out that the babies I was catching. The big ones jump out, and other get smart to the traps I set. I got a 1/3 measuring cup tied a string to the hole in the end. Baited ia bowl with a cracker tied to a bell on a string.Then teped it to the top of the bowl. The string on the measuring cup that held the bowl up slightly. Then I ran the string down the hall to where I slept. If I heard the bell I knew he was eating the bait, pulled the sting, and trapped him under the bowl. Evaded me for weeks. I went without a mouse in the house 1 week. Until next time. Thanks for your help.
Worked like a charm! I did this, and the oil bowl technique you shared. The 1st time I tried... I caught 3 mice! I'll try again in a few weeks to make sure we don't have anymore hanging out in our garage. Thanks so much!
I tried this idea. Came home and found the bucket full of mouse droppings, the peanut butter gone, and no sign of the mouse! I have tried every trick in the book. I am basically putting on a free mouse buffet. My life is a Tom and Jerry cartoon at this point, spending all my spare time plotting against my arch nemesis, the mouse.
The bucket probably wasn’t tall enough. Add water, you can’t really jump while standing in water. Or, if you don’t want to drown them, put oil in the bottom, just enough to completely cover the bottom. Their feet will be so slick they can’t hold onto the rim.
Used this hack in a hurry when there was a mouse in our house. We managed to trap it in one room. Set the bucket trap and it worked like a charm. Thanks Shawn.
@@simonebaileycampbell2013 You need a bucket as big as his or something similar . Maybe a pickle bucket , painting bucket , construction bucket or even a cat litter bucket .
He's shown similar traps in the past, though, where it caught a bunch of live mice in the same container. They didn't have any food in that container and they ate one of their smaller inmates before he got there in the morning.
Well, yea... it is very understandable. Right? I mean they know when they made a huge mistake and can't treat back to their nest after the feast... lol...
the fact you’re able to be near them.. and put your hand in the bucket with them in it and be calm when they run out the bucket… my whole body got chills
Do you even have a brain mice don't any devices in order to dislike plus you as you the people with no brain doesn't not nows they don't even realize they would be clicking dislike next time use your barin. In case anyone was wondering yes this is a joke.
You need the sunflower seeds. They create a soft ground. In this way they absorb the impulse of the jump. It's like jumping in beachvolleyball. This way the mouse can't jump out of the buket.

I am now putting this to the test in my home. I got three 5 gal buckets with water in them. Will see how they do in practice. I have a well sized colony in my home by now so if they work at all, they will work well. I added canola il on the rim to make it easier for the mice to slip in as well.
Here the sunflower seeds prevent them from jumping out - we've seen mice jump out of a plain bucket. Nice live catch trick. I still like the oil the best, though.
This actually worked!!! 🙌🏼 I woke up in the middle of the night to hear something running under my bed and to my horror saw a small grey mouse running out of my bedroom. For the last few weeks, we’ve pulled up the carpets, plugged any potential mouse holes and used this bucket trick, as wanted an alternative to mouse traps. We placed the bucket in the warmest room in the house (laundry/boiler room) and just left it and to be honest, completely forgot about it 😂 You need a lot of patience as this was not an overnight operation but took 2-3 weeks until we caught a mouse. Would recommend to anyone looking for a laid back approach to catching mice.
We’ve never had a mouse until I saw one tonight (about 11pm) in my kitchen after just getting home from traveling 😳. I was even afraid to go to bed!!! Didn’t know what to do, so I made one of these-and it was in there within 15 minutes!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! 🎉
Love the videos. I have a compost bin and a garden in my backyard so I have mice and rats. I’ve tried all sorts of traps, lately I’ve been able to catch a few by cornering them and using blunt or sharp objects near by. It’s more work but gets job done. I’m going to try the peanut butter 3” down on a bucket of water (no native mice around my parts)
I feel like what makes this trap so successful isn't the bucket itself, but the seeds at the bottom preventing the mice from getting enough footing to jump out
Great video (as always) Shawn Woods I have a question for you about catching mice and rats. Over all what mousetrap worked the best for you and how affective was it?
How deep does a bin need to be so they can't jump out? I once found a mouse "nest" and put the mice in a small garbage bin (about 50cm deep) - they all jumped out. Or does there need to be something in the bottom to absorb the energy when they try to jump?
Great idea! I am not friends with these little guys, and the fact that you are so humane to let them go is just better. If I hadn't seen this, I would have doused the bucket with water. You are a good man.
I believe this could be improved by adding cooking oil in a ring just below the top. I notice they like to lean into the bucket by putting their front feet against the inside wall.
Do you think it might work with a 7 gallon bucket like the buckets used in sports? The 7 gallon bucket has much higher sides that might prevent the rats from jumping out.
Shawn, several years ago I had a cookout and had a 6 gallon bucket with water in case of fire as we were in a terrible drought. After the cooking was finished and the fire was out, I doused the areas around the grill and stuck the bucket inside a shed. Someone had thrown a chicken leg bone in the gallon of water left in the bucket. I came out to do some yard work the next morning and was going to dump the water as it was next to my work bench. There was a huge dead rat in it. Apparently he had tried to get to it off the workbench and fell in but couldn’t get out. This video brought back a good memory for me. Take care and Friday and today Your counter showed I was #421 on the Like counter. Have a great week and check You Friday 🤠
Good idea I'll definitely have to give this a try, my trailer has been getting infected with mice and rats for months now and I've been wasting my money with glue traps forever
ive always thought about this. If you just put a lightly suspended platform in the middle, they'll think its solid ground and jump on their own... I guess you dont even need that!
This trick worked for me! I used a plastic container and spread peanut butter and put cheez its in the bottom. I got some annoying house mice! Thank you very much for sharing.
i tried this trap with peanut butter in our pantry last week and my trickster pantry mouse didn’t fall for it. a friend of mine then said to try just regular butter as a bait… i moved the bucket to another place where i saw droppings, put butter in and woke up this morning with 2 mice in there! thank you!
I caught one tonight with this trick. Setting it free in a bit. I didn't think it would work. I didn't even have a ramp, he probably jumped straight into it from the shelf where we heard it walking often lately. Thanks!
how about smearing some light oil on the inner top surface so that the mice can't push themselves back up and guarantee them to slip and fall into the pail?
50 years ago, in 'A' school at Great Lakes, they still had some of us living in old WW2 "H" barracks. we did the same for cockroaches. one legendary Jurassic roach was pinned to the bulletin board on top of a dollar bill. No BS: it was larger than the bill. people would come from all over the base to see it.
OMG! I've been trying to figure out how to catch mice without endangering my parrots! You just might have the answer! I can't wait to try this! If successful, I'll comment again with an update! Thank you for an excellent suggestion!
Thank you for supporting such a humane trap! Either catch and release or instant kill are the only way to go. Drowning, sticky pads, etc are so horrific.
Man, Shawn was so excited with this trap he wasn't going to "humanely dispatch them" he was just going to straight up kill them if they weren't native 2:52
Thanks for this, after two months of laying a news floor in my bathroom a mouse popped out last night from under the boards!! I do not believe in killing the little thing so I will try this later. Many thanks.
I love this one!! I'm trying it right now as I don't have many materials to make any of your other traps. But I do have a wooden ramp and a bucket, and of course peanut butter. Thanks!!!
I tried this today! It worked really well! My cat unfortunately "lost" a mouse the day before and it ran into my flat. I didn't want to kill that mouse , so I looked for a way to catch it alive. And it turned out great!!!
Mr Shawn Woods your accident was very helpful sir, I tried this and left it overnight and in the morning the rat was trapped! Thank you so much! 🎉Love from South Africa💃🇿🇦🙏😊
My family and I just moved into our new home and unexpectedly brought another family with us from our storage unit. Well I caught two last night with this method!! Thank you

The mice really seem to not care about food when they realize they’re trapped, they show signs of panic and sometimes aggression. Pretty interesting.

It seems the seeds keep them from being able to jump well. It doesn't look like they are jumping too high.
How tall is the bucket? How does water make it a kill trap?
Caught the mouse in our house in 10 minutes!!!! Thank you!!!
That's not a good you know that right
Smear peanut oil around the rim!
Bait and trap improvement in one.
Diabolical !
Yeah I was thinking a similar thing maybe just above the layer of peanut butter so they are more likely to slip

Lmao stop spreading bullshit. He just gave them food.

That last one had a hard time choosing between freedom, or a lifetime supply of food.
Thank you so much. Literally set this up and 2.5 hours later, we got our man. I didn't have seeds so only used the peanut butter. It totally worked.

Where do you buy a clear plastic bucket? That probably helps as they don't sense a trap.

Wow. This is as easy as the oil in the bowl trap too.
I would oil the edges to make it more slippery.
BTW - you should isolate the food-bait from the mice to catch more because of the smell.

I love this one!! I'm trying it right now as I don't have many materials to make any of your other traps. But I do have a wooden ramp and a bucket, and of course peanut butter. Thanks!!!
You could combine this with the peanut oil trap so the larger mice can’t jump out
How do u do this?
Yes how?
I tried this today!
It worked really well!
My cat unfortunately "lost" a mouse the day before and it ran into my flat.
I didn't want to kill that mouse , so I looked for a way to catch it alive.
And it turned out great!!!
I used a cardboard lid with a plank cut into it with a bait trail to the end of it. It caught all the mice that coffee shop had in it.
Mr Shawn Woods your accident was very helpful sir, I tried this and left it overnight and in the morning the rat was trapped! Thank you so much! 🎉Love from South Africa💃🇿🇦🙏😊
Do you have recommendations for ramps for any of these bucket style traps?
yard stick cut down, add hook on end
What do you mean?? A hook on the end??
Using the same setup, also add a ring of oil about an inch down from the top and they won’t be able to hang there and think, just slide down. Awesome.
Shawn ---- how deep must the bucket be so they don't jump out? Thanks

My family and I just moved into our new home and unexpectedly brought another family with us from our storage unit. Well I caught two last night with this method!! Thank you
Shawn woods: wow i caught 10 mice!!
Me: wow i caught 0 mice!
In my youth, a hangover usually involved a bucket. Great video as always, keep ém coming!
