How to make your own rat trap from a Coke bottle

The bottom of my burglar fence is covered with shelves, and some flower pots and sundries are placed on it, and as a result, there have always been rats in the past n years. Even though I've never been in the house, it's annoying to poop on the board all the time. One morning at the end of last year, I actually witnessed a little mouse grinding its teeth and claws, and I watched for ten minutes and it didn't notice me.

So I was angry, and the consequences were serious. I immediately designed a miniature rat trap. This is my second version, which basically uses the simplest structure and the most common materials.

The first version I designed was complicated at first, and it turned out to be very difficult to make.

The complex structure and principle have high requirements for machining accuracy, and my machining accuracy is difficult to achieve, and accidents are prone to occur during the capture process. And the rat escaping once won't give me a second chance. The simpler the structure, the higher the reliability.

Calculate the position of the wire door shaft and door stop, as well as the position of the bottle cut, and mark it with a marker. The bottle is cut open with scissors, and the bottle mouth is discarded. There are various ways to penetrate the door shaft hole and door stop hole, but I use the method of burning the wire red and inserting it into the bottle, because the high temperature will melt and re-solidify the bottle around the hole, and there will be no microcracks around the hole, and it will become thicker, avoiding stress concentration, and making it more durable (after all, when the rat finds that the rat life is about to end, the explosive power must be terrifying).

Find a hose for hanging needles, pass through the Coke bottle, and then help a plumb sinker on the Coke bottle, blow the air, drain the Coke bottle, float up, inhale the water, enter the Coke bottle, and sink.

Tools Raw materials.

2 plastic bottles with a volume of 2L.

Scissor tape. Rats infestationIn our daily home life, there is nothing more troublesome than rodent infestation. Rats not only love to spoil food, but also grind their teeth everywhere to damage furniture, and it is difficult to catch and deal with wreckage everywhere.

I have a good way to make a mousetrap from a common plastic bottle in life, so let me tell you this way to make a simple mousetrap from a plastic bottle!

end step 1.

Take two large two-litre bottles and cut off the openings of both bottles.

Take one of the bottles, cut off a few triangles on the top half of the bottle, cut it into the shape of the bottom **, and cut off the bottom of the bottle.

end the second step.

After cutting the bottle, fold the remaining part of the bottle inward after cutting the bottle mouth, or you can fix it with tape.

Cover the bottle with the bottom cut over the bottle with only the cut opening, that is, put the two bottles together to increase the height.

end of the day.

Put the mousetrap in place, add some bait to the bottle, and use scissors or a circle to prick some small holes in the bottle to let the smell of the bait escape. The result is a simple mousetrap.

end Note.

The mousetrap should be placed in an area frequented by rats.

If the rat to be caught is large, the mousetrap needs to be immobilized.

Always watch the mousetrap to see if it catches a mouse, if you don't look at it for a long time, the mouse may bite through the plastic bottle and escape.

Close the doors and windows of your home to prevent rats from sneaking in from the outside.

There are many different ways to make a mousetrap out of plastic bottles online, so you can try them all.
