Behold mouse trap w/ swivelling bottle with peanut butter on swivelling dowel over a bucket of water with ramp v.2.0.1

Improvements over v1.0

  • more peanut butter

  • Soap applied to inner walls

  • Longer ramp with peanut butter.

Worked in Melbs but was after a rat not the mouse that got in.

This is a magnificent contraption! For washing mice for your new cat.
