Victor M325 Wooden Mouse Trap
The Victor M325 Wooden Mouse Trap is one of the most popular mouse traps on the market. This large mouse trap is simple to use and effective at catching mice, and it has been used by homeowners and businesses for decades. The original design of this trap has not changed much since it was first created. The wooden base of the trap makes it sturdy and durable, while the metal parts are designed to be rust-resistant so that they will last for many years.

How the Victor M325 Mouse Trap Works
This large mouse trap features a wooden platform and a strong metal spring, along with a cheese-scented plastic pedal that attracts mice. You can add a small amount of peanut butter, cheese, bacon, or other bait to increase effectiveness. When a mouse steps on the pedal, the spring snaps shut, delivering a quick and humane kill. For best results, place the wooden mouse trap flush against a wall where mice are known to travel.
Be cautious when setting and baiting this trap, as the spring is very powerful. Once baited and set, this mouse trap can kill up to 100 mice per year, making it a great long-term solution for your mouse problem. You simply have to check the trap and dispose of the mice regularly.
If you have a serious mouse problem, we recommend setting multiple big mouse traps around your home or business. Mice are social creatures and travel in groups, so it's important to catch as many as possible at one time. You can also use this trap for rats because it's big enough to catch them, too.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you set a wooden mouse trap?
To set the Victor M325 Mouse Trap, first pull back the metal kill bar and hold it in place. Then move the small metal arm over the kill bar and hook it into the trigger plate. Place the trap where you’ve seen mouse activity, along walls, behind appliances, or in corners. Set multiple large mouse traps at once for better results, spacing them a few feet apart.
What is the best bait to put on a Victor mouse trap?
The best bait is something that mice can smell easily but can't just grab and run. Peanut butter works great because it sticks to the big mouse trap and has a strong scent. You can also try small bits of chocolate, bacon, or soft cheese. Just use a small amount; about the size of a pea is enough to lure them in.
How many times can you use a Victor mouse trap?
Victor wooden mouse traps, like the M325 and M7 Pro, are reusable. As long as the trap isn’t damaged and the spring is still strong, you can reset and reuse this large mouse trap as many times as needed. After each catch, just clean the trap with gloves and mild soap to remove scent and residue before re-baiting.
Where should I place these big mouse traps for maximum effectiveness?
The best place to put your mouse traps is along any area you expect mice to travel. Usually, these areas are along walls, near cracks and crevices on the floor, and behind appliances. You can also place these mouse traps near trash cans and under furniture.
If you’re placing mouse traps along a long wall, space them 2-3 feet apart.
How sensitive is the large mouse trap, and can it be adjusted?
When setting this Victor M325 mouse trap, you have the option between Firm and Sensitive settings on the pedal. The Firm setting is easier to set up, but requires more pressure from the rodent to set off. The Sensitive setting is more difficult to arm, but it will snap at the lightest pressure from a mouse.
How many mouse traps should I use?
The answer here depends on the size of your space and the severity of your infestation. You should definitely place at least one large mouse trap near every potential entryway and several along long walls. You can use up to three traps for every rodent you suspect of infiltrating your space.
Check your traps frequently, so you can reset any that have been triggered and dispose of the mice you’ve already caught.
