It is not humane to leave them stuck to the trap for hours/days.


Better than having them walking around!


I didn't say it was better to leave them walking around.

A 'snap' trap is better cos it stands a better chance of killing the beggars
straight away!


It will kill them more quickly, but often not straight away. Mice in
particular tend to just get their snout caught by one and then
presumably they die of the pain.
