Review: Terrifyingly Efficient - I spent a lot of time reading reviews on here on the various makes of these kinds of rat/mouse killers. I came to the conclusion that after cancelling out the 'I got this product free/discounted and therefore feel obliged/feel it's in my interests to give a good review' reviews, this one was the one with the largest number of suspect free positive reviews. I had a serious mouse problem, but not a rat problem, but having already tried first live traps, and then Rentokil poison boxes, and finding them equally useless to the pretty intelligent mice that were troubling me, I decided to try one of these and felt that the larger tunnel size, since it's designed for rats too, would make the mice less suspicious on entering. This product arrived on a Sunday afternoon, but having no batteries until the following day, I decided to place it in its first intended location, my kitchen cupboard, hoping the mice would get used to it being there and therefore fooled into a false sense of security. The next day the batteries arrived and I put it in my kitchen cupboard at 4pm, with a square of Snickers. I came back into the room about ten minutes later to find it already flashing, and found the first victim had been killed within 10 minutes of me placing it there. Tipping the mouse out was simple and I replaced the product back into the cupboard. That first night it killed six mice, the second night another 5. I then moved it into my living room and it showed the same efficiency until within 3 days, there were no more mice, and no more signs of them destroying the things that were previously being ruined every night. I should also point out, that it did all this using the same square of Snickers I placed in it on first set up. Since no mouse had ever got far enough to touch it let alone eat it, it remained as bait throughout. The mice always looked in perfect condition. No burned extremities, no hideous looks of pain or shock on their faces etc. In fact I find this product all the scarier for the fact that it is quite so terrifyingly efficient as the title indicates. But given the previous items I tried, I'd say this were one of the better ways to be killed off. If you have pets or other humans around, I would highly recommend you place this trap only where they cannot get. A dog/cat/rabbit's paws could easily reach into this product and they would be killed instantly I'm sure, and I'm sure it wouldn't do a human much good either. But that aside, so long as you are aware of this, I find this product brilliant and would highly recommend it. Review: Don't waste your money! - OK we had a rat problem and I needed to sort it out quickly - so I bought Victor Rat Traps, Glue Boards and this Victor Rat Zapper. Don't bother with the Victor Rat Zapper!! I caught all of the rats with the traditional snap spring traps and the last one called an "Alpha" on a glue board. Apparently you need to try and catch them all in one go, otherwise they will get trap shy and just avoid them. The last one would not take the bait and so I ordered a glue board and it just ran across it, after I had worked out where his food source was coming from. Also block up any holes, even if you end up blocking them in the house. It took over 4 weeks to get them all and so I can't get a refund on my Rat Zapper, but save your cash and do not bother - it did not work for me and the rats were small enough to have got into it. I put in the most expensive batteries too, they just would not enter it. Buy lots of normal snap rat traps - the Victor ones were good, bait them up unset with either Cheese, Bacon or Peanut Butter to see which they prefer and let them get used to eating off them unset for a couple of days and set them and unleash hell. Hopefully you'll get them all in one night. I took ages for me to get all of this information off of the internet so I hope it helps someone. The Zapper sounds like a great idea, as you can just kill them cleanly and tip them in the bin, without any mucking around with traps and the inherent danger to children and small pets - but its only a great idea if it works! Sorry rats but you were starting to destroy my house! ## Features - High-voltage shock humanely kills mice and average-size rats - Kills up to 20 rats per set of 4 “AA” Batteries (not included) - Easy to use – insert batteries, add bait, turn it on and place the trap - Blinking red LED light notifies you of a catch - Never touch a dead rodent – simply tip into the trash ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B002665ZTC | | Best Sellers Rank | 169,419 in Garden ( See Top 100 in Garden ) 1,607 in Rodent Control | | Brand | Victor | | Brand Name | Victor | | Colour | Red | | Customer Reviews | 3.5 out of 5 stars 19,652 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00064668236393, 00737120700083, 00737120840284, 30737120700084 | | Is Electric | Yes | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 30.5L x 11W x 11.4H centimetres | | Item Type Name | Rat Trap | | Item Weight | 680 Grams | | Item weight | 680 Grams | | Manufacturer | Woodstream Europe Limited | | Manufacturer Part Number | RZC001-4 | | Material | Mixed Materials | | Material Type | Mixed Materials | | Model Number | RZC001-4 | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Power Source | Battery Powered | | Product dimensions | 30.5L x 11W x 11.4H centimetres | | Recommended Uses For Product | Trap | | Style | Electronic Trap | | Style Name | Electronic Trap | | Target Species | Mouse, Rat | | UPC | 064668236393 737120700120 737120700083 737120840284 | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Victor - **Colour:** Red - **Is electric:** Yes - **Item weight:** 680 Grams - **Material:** Mixed Materials - **Number of pieces:** 1 - **Product dimensions:** 30.5L x 11W x 11.4H centimetres - **Recommended uses for product:** Trap - **Style:** Electronic Trap - **Target species:** Mouse, Rat ## Images ![Rat Zapper Classic - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81e2WkC5q6L.jpg) ![Rat Zapper Classic - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71sTS1+nqzL.jpg) ![Rat Zapper Classic - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61bQc8wkLEL.jpg) ![Rat Zapper Classic - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71eXl9zPgVL.jpg) ![Rat Zapper Classic - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61USainE61L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Pattern, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: I'm looking for something that will kill rats but not harm our visiting hedgehog or birds. is this any good?** A: Unfortunately this can harm any animal that can fit inside and in my opinion the opening to the trap is large enough to allow any small animal in,so I don't think this trap is ideal for you. **Q: My last Zapper had an extension lead which indicated when the trap had functioned. This is on the Amazon, America, site but not on the UK site, why?** A: Hello, Thank you for your enquiry. There is no need to look inside this trap to check for a kill, the indicator light flashes when the trap has killed a Rat or Mouse. Simply empty and reset - 1 set of 4 AA batteries kills 20 rats or mice. If you have any further questions, please let us know. Kind Regards **Q: I haven't caught a thing with this and I have placed it in an area where theirs loads of activity. I have tried loads of bait where I'm I going wrong?** A: Personally I found that the trap has to be in an area they frequent and feel safe in, also the bait must be something that they are used to finding in the area. Rats are very intelligent and incredibly suspicious of new items and strange foods. I have assumed you have a rat problem as I did. **Q: I got 2 new ones (I already have 2 that work ok). when I turn them on instead of red light that fades I get a green light and a buzzing sound?** A: that is ok it means it is working, the green light and sound will stop shortly after that and the trap is ready, if it catch anything it buzz and have flushing green light i think 2or 3 times after that you will get constant green light indicating sucess. remember to switch the power off before emptying the trap. the red light indicate the battery need replacing. hope this help. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Terrifyingly Efficient *by B***Y on 2 November 2016* I spent a lot of time reading reviews on here on the various makes of these kinds of rat/mouse killers.

Sorry rats but you were starting to destroy my house! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Be patient -- but this WORKS! Mice are just as wary as rats. See my tips.... *by P***B on 4 February 2017* Living alone as I do, I was shocked and horrified to see suddenly mouse evidence in my kitchen. Evidence being that of... well, mice do not use the human loo just down the hall. They are crude beings but have fine taste when it comes to food. My mice had eaten the artisanal speciality oats, stored in a plastic container, that I use for skirlie, and ignored the everyday oats used for breakfast. The bastards must die. I am relatively squeamish, so I knew snap traps or glue traps weren't an option. My growing rage at these brazen foodie mice was intensifying, so after much research and reading many helpful reviews I knew the right approach would be... the Victor Rat Zapper Classic. When I got it I was overwhelmed with an awful plastic and metal smell. But I put on gloves (to mask my scent) baited it with organic peanut butter on a skewer (you have to get it smeared onto the back wall) and waited. Nothing. For a week.... I did the dishes one morning, looked at this fancy expensive trap and thought, "Hey, it doesn't smell so plastic-y anymore." Now, the peanut butter has been there for a week.... Next morning, the light was flashing. I tipped out a fat and glossy specimen -- he'd somehow managed to get at some of the peanut butter before being electrocuted out of my kitchen and out of my life. Time of death was about 05:45. Two more electrocutions followed at 12:11 and 12:43. This thing just keeps on killing! I am starting to understand how Dexter operates. That said, if you are near the trap when the murder starts -- it can be slightly distressing. The light will flash red and you'll hear a electronic buzzing for a couple of minutes and smell a burning smell. Then it stops and the smell dissipates. If the trap is within earshot you'll hear everytime your mouse victims fry due to the electric sound. Mice are just as wary as rats. Wear gloves, mask your scent and be patient. I took off one star as the unit smelt so revoltingly of cheap plastic and metal and I think it didn't work straightaway due to this. ## Frequently Bought Together - Rat Zapper Classic RZC001-4 Indoor Electronic Mouse and Rat Trap - 1 Electric Trap - Rat Zapper - Electric Mouse Traps Indoor for Home - Safe and Effective Rat Killer - Electronic Mouse Trap Zapper Reusable and No Touch - Rodent Killer Outdoors & Indoor --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.is/products/64112965-rat-zapper-classic](https://www.desertcart.is/products/64112965-rat-zapper-classic) --- *Product available on Desertcart Iceland* *Store origin: IS* *Last updated: 2026-05-22*
