Pest XT unknown high Pressure Ready-to-eat pests (Double Pack)

This is a hard item to review. I already had one and it seemed to work very well, so when i saw several mice in the garden, which were also seeking refuge in the shed, i decided to purchase a couple more. I purchased Amazon Basics batteries, so that i knew my 2 new mouse traps would be working at their best. I trapped 2 mice and then i got a constant red flashing light, immediately after the green light had gone out. I used another set of batteries (from the same new pack) and the same thing happened. I never had this problem with the original one i purchased? So, is it the product or the batteries? Another negative, is the cleaning. The design dictates that you insert the mouse food through holes in the back, but to clean it you have to put your hands right in through the front of the trap and use something like a toothbrush to remove the bait. Why not make the back removable for cleaning?

Bought two of these as we had mice coming into the attic from the house next door. Years ago we bought similar for our front room and those actually worked and caught the mice. Hence buying these two. Sadly these, are nowhere as good as our originals and arent so well made either, a waste of money, they worked once or twice (didnt catch any mice), and gave up, so the mice remained and we ended up throwing these useless contraptions into the cupboard and using the traditional mouse traps!!
