I don't believe there was anything especially crap about this trap, for one thing my mum could actually hear the snapping mechanism (At least I think she could, I'll check). In my opinion it's probably a testament to how under some circumstances the traditional traps aren't necessarily instantly fatal.
Found this behind my microwave...

Have an elephant trample the gorllia
Then I assume I'll need a mouse to get rid of the elephant... Which will have me back at square 1
Being hanged isn't necessarily instantly fatal either.
But if it's done properly you don't choke to death over a period of time, your neck is broken on the drop.
The mousetrap is meant to be powerful enough to crush a mouse under the bar including bones. If that's not happening find one with stiffer springs.
Or a chimera cat/ferret/snake creature.

- Was 150 yds from OCUK - now 0.5 mile; they moved
he maybe was once your next door neighbours pet?
You'll be pleased to know I can supply you with a wide range of cats, snakes, ferrtis, bears, greatwhites, gorillas, elephants and mice: )
For a modest fee you understand
Should have grown some and killed it.
Let's take a look at this story.
The op released the mouse.
Said mouse found another house to live in where a small child lived called Johnny.
Mouse contaminates new house with Salmonella-Hantavirus and even Lyme Disease.
Little Johnny Is only 3 years old but is going to die soon because the mouse spread salmonella over the surface that little Johnny dropped his sweets on, his sticky little fingers wiped over the germs and as he put the sweets back into his mouth he got infected.
Later that day Johnny gets Salmonella developed diarrhoea, fever, and abdominal cramps 12 to 72 hours after infection. The illness usually lasts 4 to 7 days, and most persons recover without treatment.
In some persons the diarrhoea may be so severe that the patient needs to be hospitalised. In these patients, the Salmonella infection may spread from the intestines to the blood stream, and then to other body sites and can cause death.
Johnny was buried 5 days later, and his mother distort with pain and anguish killed herself.
Never release vermin, kill it always.
Geez don't know what's more depressing, this or that I could have let next doors child's lost mouse out into the wilderness - if I get a knock on the door tonight..
All vermin should be killed, so thats mice, rats, pigeons, foxes... in fact pretty much any animal that has the misfortune of living where humans do.
I propose we do this with Tefals murderous zoo army while we still can (lets hope they don't get us or little Johnny) and then kill the zoo army afterwards.
Presumably with dinosaurs.
Thats quite true. Also if the mouse/rat is big enough, unless you got a big enough trap (and they do come in sizes), it may not snap the neck and will suffocate it. But hey ho... it still dies, eventually. Trouble is, if you get to it and its not yet dead, then you have a problem.
