Have a Sanitary Thanksgiving!

As the holidays approach, many of us are planning to prepare a lot of food for numerous guests. When preparing large meals, many of us can cut corners in ways that are not normal. Surface areas might be doused with turkey gravy or vegetable oil. Food might fall to the floor and be left there until you are finished stirring the soup or basting the bird. Of course, as television personality and culinary expert Anthony Bordain once said, "I'd never let a little dirt ruin a good meal." The same can be said of the inevitable mess of cooking. Still, a little mess is a lot different than an unsanitary food prep environment, and that is why getting any lingering pest situation handled before Thanksgiving is so important.

Whether we are talking about flies or mice, the presence of pests is more than just a momentary inconvenience or a little bit of lovingly acquired grime. Pests spread diseases, and their presence can turn a big family meal into a family heath crisis. By spreading germs on any surface they touch, both of these beasts can become a real problem for a high-quality dinner.

With disposable fly traps placed anywhere your home might be vulnerable to a fly invasion, you can take a huge bite out of these critters. With the winter setting in, they will be fleeing into homes to try and survive the cold. Don't allow them to make your home their winter nest. Even if your home is unlikely to incur an infestation, some preparation—in the form of pre-ordering disposable fly traps—can be helpful.

Mice can also ruin Thanksgiving. Not only do they spread diseases through their feces and saliva, they will also dine on any foods they can get their hands on. Before you know it, an entire holiday feast can be compromised, costing you hundreds of dollars and creating more than a little disappointment. Glue mouse traps are really a necessity to have on hand for anyone who owns a home. Does that cover just about everyone? 

Keeping the kitchen sanitary is not the meticulous practice it may sound like. Instead, merely keeping food safe to eat can give your holiday the genuine feel of hominess without the risk of dysentery. Some sticky mousetraps or a fly trap is not much of an expense when you are assuring your Turkey Day goes off without a hitch.

Why I Use Humane Mouse Traps

When I was a little boy we were up in the woods at my uncle’s cabin. He called everyone over to look at a family of mice in a stump. There were a few babies and a mommy. After everyone had seen them squeak and pulse in their home they soon occupied themselves with other things. I remained, and eager for the mice to come out and play, I took a stick and encouraged them to come out by pumping the stick up and down in the stump. My uncle, drunk with rage, saw me and shouted, “What are you doing to those mice?” I, defenseless and innocent, didn’t realize what I had done, until he told me, “You killed all those baby mice!”

Needless to say this event permanently scarred me. Now whenever I see mice a wave of sorrow washes over me, especially when I’ve had to deal with them in my home. The little critters are cute but I know they must be gotten rid of. So I buy humane mouse traps, which I believe to be the best mouse traps, and spread them in areas where the mice congregate. When I catch them, I take the human mouse traps and release the little beasties into the wild.

Mouse Trap Dilemma

When I found mice in our basement, I thought, “Oh boy, here we go.” My wife is afraid of mice, but she’s also very into animal rights. So I had a real Catch 22 on my hands – wife sees mice, wants them dead, wife sees dead mice, wants them alive. I had to get creative. In the search for humane mouse traps, I had to use all of my subtlety to prevent her from knowing that 1. We had mice and 2. I was trying to kill them.

I decided on an array of sticky mouse traps. They were successful, but unfortunately, one day my wife was doing the laundry and she heard a squeaking. She followed it behind the radiator and saw a mouse stuck to a board. She came to me sobbing. I needed another method.

There are a bunch of efficient traps out there, but I wanted the best mouse trap, and finally I found it. The multi-catch allows me to catch mice, and then release them into the wild, far away from our house. I told her about it to warn her, and although she won’t touch the trap, she wholly approves of it. So my dilemma is solved - until next time mice of the world! Read More!

How To Use Humane Mouse Traps

If you're a homeowner with a rodent infestation, you might be faced with a difficult dilemma — you want to get rid of the invading animals, as they're unsanitary and annoying, but you also don't want to hurt or kill them. For a long time there were no options for people in this situation, but that was before humane mouse traps became widely available. Fortunately for you (and mice), these traps make it easy and affordable to rid your house of rodents without causing any pain.

Of course, using a Catchmaster humane mouse trap is about more than just catching a mouse and letting it go. You have to be careful where you release the mouse — if you pick your backyard, for example, the mouse will probably run right back into your house. This is because mice have a powerful homing instinct and house mice in particular gravitate towards places with humans. For similar reasons, releasing your mouse next to your neighbors house or other building is also something to avoid — that is, unless you really hate the owners! Read More!

Be The Catchmaster Of Your Domain!

A few years back I lived in New York - I really loved the city a lot, the big bright buildings, and the amazing restaurants and clubs. There was one thing in particular I wasn't too crazy about, and that was my apartment! We lived above a bar, which we didn't mind too much since we were younger and they played house music. But, this wasn't the worst part of it! The bad part was that after moving in, and ONLY after moving in did we find we were infested with little mice. Thankfully for us, they were just born that week and there were hundreds of them! Yea, mice can be cute.

But, they can also carry germs and get you really sick, especially if they are up on your counter tops, on your tooth brush, or rummaging through your food - which apparently they were. We were big animal people so we didn't want to just kill them and be done with it even though they were menacing. So, we did the next best thing - we became the Catchmaster of our domain. Hey, it's our house! Mice are somewhat like an annoying roommate. They eat all your food, and they don't even pay rent. There are VERY humane mouse traps you can find on our website.

Unlike the old traps where the mouse actually gets clamped down on, these humane mouse traps will literally trap the mouse, and allow you to get rid of it (alive). On the other hand, if you scream at the sight of a mouse, you could also consider mouse glue traps. These are the less humane way, but the easier, not have to touch mice way. Read More!
