Cant get sound to work for video - so the string holding the spring down is chewed by the mouse to get to the bait? Guess I need clarification on the trigger... Yes the mouse chews the string that holds the spring down

If I build one I would cut a slot through the entrance hole so I could just slide the spring tie down string through It. A knot on the bottom end would keep It In place.

Here is a start to finish how to. Better mouse trap

Made a new version with a different spring system from snap trap parts . The steel rod holds the dogs down giving you two free hands to tie the thread. That's a pretty good idea. Using the mouse trap springs will make it a lightning fast kill.

I would change the trigger system to a toggle(notched rod) like a box trap.when the mouse pushes it it releases up thru one hole on top. Either way it seems like a lot of (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) around when you can catch tons of mice with a bucket,that never needs re-setting.

Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.
