Dispose of the rodent without having to see or touch it.Rats are Killed Swiftly and HumanelyBecause rats have the ability to restart their heart after an electrical shock, the Victor Electronic Rat Trap kills rats quickly by using a three-plate design to deliver an 8,500-volt shock that lasts for two full minutes.
Smart circuit technology senses when a rat enters the unit. Once inside, the design prevents escapes. Never again will you have to face an injured and squirming rat. Should an irregular escape occur, a unique auto-reset allows the trap to be ready for the next kill.
Easy and Safe to UseThis trap can be easily baited with peanut butter from outside the trap. After a kill, a green indicator light blinks for 24 hours to signal that a rat has been caught. Then, simply dump the rodent into the trash without having to see or touch the rat.
No sticky messes, snapped fingers, or poisons. The closed design of the trap and the built-in safety features make the Electronic Rat Trap completely safe to use around children and pets.
Economical, Battery-Operated DesignBuilt with sturdy polymer construction and a three-plate design, this device runs on four C batteries (not included), enough to exterminate up to 50 rats. When the batteries are low, a red light blinks to alert you that it's time to change them.

Customer Reviews
We have recently had rats in our basement eating everthing. We tried all kinds of traps with no luck. We bought the Victor Electronic rat trap from our local hardware store. It taked 4 c batteries and will last up to about 12 to 20 rats. In the first 24 hours we had caught 4 rats. Two days later we had a total of 6 rats caught. We paid $40.00 plus $5.00 for batteries and it is worth every penny. No meses to clean up, you just just give a little shake and the rat falls into the trash can. Best rat trap ever.
The three-star rating reflects 5 stars for effectiveness when they work and one star for how long they work (about 6-12 mice before failure).
I bought one of these rat traps after having no success with Victor's small-opening electronic mouse traps. (The small opening apparently seemed sus[picious to the mice -- not one ever entered. If I were a mouse I wouldn't walk into one of those either!) The large opening in the rat trap made it seem innocuous to the mice, and we started catching mice regularly. Unfortunately after 6-8 mice the unit stopped charging up, even with new batteries. I sent a complaint to Victor, and they were nice enough to take back the non-functioning unit and send me a new one, which killed the remaining few mice. After a hiatus in mouse problems, we started having them again and I brought out the replacement unit again. After catching another half-dozen mice or so, it also stopped working. (It appears to charge up, but mice seem to be able to walk in and eat the bait without being killed.) So basically you have to think about this as being "disposable" after every 6-12 mice, which means that they cost about $5-$8 per mouse killed. I'm now going to look for a different brand that might last longer and cost less per mouse.
Oh, like two other reviewers I also got shocked one time replacing the batteries.
