Automatic Rat Trap with Safety Tunnel

An automatic rat trap with a USB-C rechargeable battery. It detects, strikes and resets itself, delivering up to 300+ catches per charge with no CO2, poison or refills.

Made from high grade ABS built for Australian conditions, this automatic rat trap takes the effort out of rodent control. An infrared sensor detects the rat or mouse, a powerful spring delivers a fast strike, and the trap resets itself, so it keeps working without you reaching in.

  • Infrared sensor detects rats and mice, then strikes and resets automatically for round the clock rodent control
  • Up to 300+ catches per charge, far more than a single catch mouse trap, with no CO2 cartridges or chemical refills
  • USB-C rechargeable in around 4 hours, in high grade ABS rated IP44 for Australian conditions
  • Mount to arm safety sensor means the rat trap only operates once correctly mounted, wall or floor

    Why It Works

    A Closer LookAt The Details

    Always On Guard

    Unlike single-catch traps that stop after one rodent, this trap resets itself automatically after every strike, so it keeps protecting your home around the clock without you resetting a thing.

    Up To 300+ Catches Per Charge

    A single charge powers up to 300+ catches, so one setup can handle a serious problem without constant checking, refills or replacements throughout the season.

    USB-C Rechargeable

    The built-in battery recharges in around four hours from any USB-C source, so there are no disposable batteries to buy and no waiting around between uses.

    No Poison Or CO2

    There are no CO2 cartridges, poisons or toxic chemicals involved, just a powered strike, making it a cleaner, lower cost choice with nothing harmful left around the home.

    Mount To Arm Safety

    The trap only operates once correctly mounted to its bracket, an added safeguard that helps reduce the chance of accidental triggering during setup and handling.

    Wall Or Floor Mounting

    Fix it to a wall, post or fence, or stand it on the floor along a runway, so it suits sheds, warehouses, chicken coops, outdoors and anywhere rodents travel.

    The Nesty Difference

    Nesty Automatic Rat Trap vsCO2 & Bait Traps

    Nesty Boxes Best Choice Automatic Rat Trap with Safety Tunnel CO2 & Chemical/Bait Rat Traps
    How It Works Automatic strike, then resets itself CO2 cartridge fires once, or toxic bait the rodent eats
    Poison Or Chemicals No chemical bait or CO2 gas cartridges Poison bait or CO2 cartridges
    Risk To Pets, Birds & Wildlife No poison, no secondary poisoning risk Bait carries secondary poisoning risk to pets, birds and wildlife
    Catches Per Setup Up to 300+ per charge, reusable Limited per CO2 cartridge, or refill bait after each use
    Ongoing Cost None, just recharge Ongoing CO2 cartridges or bait refills
    Where The Rodent Ends Up Caught at the trap, easy to clear Often dies out of sight, causing odour

    *Compared against typical CO2 cartridge and chemical or bait-style rat traps as categories, not any specific brand. Secondary-poisoning risk refers to pets, birds or wildlife that may eat a rodent affected by bait. Figures are a guide only and vary with use. Always follow the setup and safety instructions, keep hands clear of the strike zone, and keep the trap out of reach of children and pets.

    FAQS

    Your Questions,Answered

    How does the automatic rat trap work?

    The trap uses a powered mechanism to quickly and humanely eliminate rats once triggered. It resets automatically after each activation, allowing multiple catches without manual resetting.

    How many rats can the rat trap catch?

    Up to 300+ catches per charge, so a single setup can work through a serious rat or mouse problem. Dealing with a heavy infestation across a large shed or property? Run a couple of traps along the main runways to cover more ground at once.

    Does it work for mice as well as rats?

    Yes, the same nesty rat trap handles both rats and mice, so you do not need a separate mouse trap.The infrared sensor picks up the smaller movement of a mouse just as well as a larger rat.

    Do I need bait, and what should I use?

    A small amount of bait is required to draw rodents into the strike zone. Peanut butter works best, smeared into the bait cup, as the smell pulls rats and mice in and they cannot grab it and run. For the best results, leave a little peanut butter out near the trap for a few days before you switch it on, so the rodents get used to feeding there and approach the kill zone with confidence once it is armed.

    Is it safe around pets and children?

    It uses no poisons or toxic chemicals, and a mount-to-arm sensor means it only operates once correctly fitted to its bracket. Additionally, nestys rat trap comes with pegs that allow you to peg the trap down in the ground. It still has a strong strike mechanism, so keep it out of reach of children and pets and place it where they cannot access the entrance.

    How long does the battery last and how do I charge it?

    The rat trap is built-in with a 2200mAh battery that recharges using a USB-C cable in around four hours. A single charge covers up to 300+ catches and months of standby, so there is little to do between charges.

    Where should I put a rat trap?

    Rats and mice follow walls, fences and dark corners rather than crossing open ground, so place the trap tight against a wall or along a known runway with the entrance facing the path. Mount it on a wall, post or fence, or stand it on the floor base.The closer it sits to where rodents already travel, the faster it works.

    Can I use it around chickens or in a coop?

    The poison free design is a big reason that the automatic rat trap suits coops, as it avoids the secondary poisoning risk that baits carry around birds. Place and peg it where your chickens cannot reach the entrance, such as along the outside of the run, in the feed storage area, or under a raised coop, so it targets rats and mice without contacting your flock. Keep it clear of where birds forage and roost.
