People are always trying to build a better mouse trap. Some of the older ones are the best. Think the trap needs a drop or 2 of grease to spin more freely.
grease might be too thick, some very light oil would be better......many of them simply fell off as opposed to getting spun off.
Graphite would do the trick
@@realkushman yeah that would do it!
I was thinking drill a hole in one end of the larger piece and spray some WD40 in there.
Yeah, Just put some grease (thin lubricant) on the spot where the rotating tube will be, do not put it on the inside of the rotating tube because then it will get everywhere when you put it on.
Happy Thanksgiving. Thank You For Watching My Videos.
Happy thanks giving! I'll be getting eggnog on that day
Shawn Woods happy thanksgiving to you to
Is it possible to make a trap that can drown gophers?
No other trap will compare to the Oil Bowl.
Is that still going?
Maybe you can catch some of them swamp rats and eat them!
Shawn, you should drill some tiny holes in the spinning part so you can occasionally squirt in some graphite to keep that puppy spinning smooth!
Or use bearings
A food-grade oil (olive oil, for example) would attract the mice; it would eventually need to be cleaned, but it would serve two purposes.
I'd use powdered graphite, not liquid, it won't pick up dust and hinder the lubrication.
Though you probably don't want it to spin too easily. it seems to work well being a bit stiff so the mice don't think much of it until they spend too much time on it
Silicon
Mice are cute but Carson is adorable. My biggest laugh of the week. "He ran away" lol
"Let's try a third mouse" At this point you're just showing off how diverse your mouse collection is.
The thumbnail looks like the mouse has a giant cannon
Giant cannon mouse trap. Now that's an idea.
Mighty Mouse. Faster than a speeding bullet.
The mouse packin heat
The tabels have turned. Now it is you who shall get in the bucket.
🤣
caught the single frame flash of "This video has been removed for violating CZcams's policy on violent or graphic content." GG editing. 5:15
Sharp eyes! I saw it only because I slowed the video to 25% after your tip.
me too. :D with 0.25 speed and some luck :D
They kept getting away from your son Carson because he was being very gentle with them.
I noticed that too. He was taught to respect animals.
Well, that's a good thing. no?
@@panoken2130 Yes it is and cute too.
Your bad luck with the spinner, beside the friction, is the design. I firmly believe you could get a lot better results if only you could add 3 and not 4 spinner poles. In a Mercedes Benz symbol configuration. As this has a better chance of rotational fall and less counterbalance as you see with some of your footage, when two mice go on a different direction blade, thus counterweighting each outer and cancel the action.
Sam Sen also use a smaller diameter pvc pipe
Or add some oil between the pipes to make it rotate smoother
Yet both fall to the trap..
I had the same idea. It’s worth a try.
@@Leonvolt28 Or some ball bearings.
The mice seemed more effective at bumping each other into the bucket...
How big would this thing need to be to work with squirrels?
@@puppetsock ik this is late but squirells would easly jump put of most containers also A squirell would probably be able to hold on
@@angryboi801 How about if the container had about a foot of water in the bottom? I'm thinking something along the lines of a wheelie-bin sized catcher with some water.
Crab bucket theory in action maybe?
So you’re saying the trap worked.
8:45 "He ran away again!"
Carson is so cool, what a great family you have!
A small amount of cooking oil in between the two pipes may have helped them rotate some. (cooking oil to both attract the mice and to keep them safe if they ingest it)
You could drill a small hole in the sleeve and drop it in when needed
Cooking oil dries. Feel the cap of your cooking oil. Hard and sticky. Cooking oil bad. 🥴🥴🥴
@@MrMysticSeer id reckon graphite would be best in this application
8:01 Mouse: "NOT TODAY, BOY!"
Shawn have you considered getting a 3d printer? Basic design software is pretty easy to learn and it's way easier to make sure dimensions are exact for smaller parts than cutting them by hand.
Joshua Hudson
I think he likes making stuff
Part of the fun is crafting things by hand. It's just not the same designing something and printing it out.
The fun of designing is making it as precise and perfect and efficient as possible its not the same as crafting things by hand
Clearly you don't craft
Not sure about Shawn's exact location, but instead of buying a 3D printer I would suggest asking around to see who has one a person might be able to use (a few public libraries have them) or joining a makerspace that has one.
Many I really appreciate how patient you are with your son man keep it up
Shawn is going to have his own pet store at this rate
“Go be free!” Isn’t something I’ll be saying to mice I catch.
I like how he included a soft landing. That's really sweet of him.
Your son with a mouse is like me and my phone
I-phone 8 by any chance ?
Slippery little buggers, aint they.
Mark Howards naw I-phone 5 I’m broke my phone is smaller than my hand
HARDWIRED to SELF DESTRUCTION tru
Beat The wolf girl at the very least shoot for an iphone 6, probably apple’s best phone that’s not brand new
Absolutely relatable 💀
I came to this channel a while ago to be informed on pest control, and I’m still fascinated with even the variations on the rolling log trap. Please keep it up! I love this channel!
There is nothing illegal with making any patented item. The patent protects the patent holder from anyone else profiting from it. So you can't make them and sell them.
I was going to comment this, but decided to see if someone beat me to it :)
Are you an attorney? Because the Wikipedia page on Patent infringement under United States law says that making a patented item is infringement.
You guys realize patents are only valid for a few years and have to be renewed constantly? This is obviously a very expired patent
Brian Landers Wikipedia has citations, easily followed. In this case, one can follow reference 4 to 35 USC 71 at the Cornell U.S. Code web site, which spells out the law. I started with Wikipedia figuring it would be easier for most people to start with.
In any case, he made the design for this video on CZcams which is monetised. Would that count as profiting from it?
If you want to make it more sensitive, pre-drill holes in the smaller tube to go under the spinning part, so there wont be any suction/airtight friction. This also allows you to theoretically apply lubricant from the inside of the piping.
Cant beat the classic rolling log trap
Oh, that did the trick for me! But this one does look good.
I would have agreed but in this round, there was a 100% success rate by the dumbest-operating mousetrap in history.
Should drill a few holes in the paddles for bait adhesion.
Good idea.
7:37 awwww look at that baby in the top right yawning. He's so comfy😍😍😍
Ur daughter call me daddy too He's just a little tired from being in The Bucket all night
"Ohp there he goes!" Awww I'm dying of cuteness !!
A real lesson in "Mechanical Engineering". The presenter is resourceful and proficient,anticipating just about every possible requirement and weakness. An excellent step-by-step " how to ? " instructional video.
7:19 *THIS. IS. SPARTA!*
WD 40 that spinner and you'd be in biz !
I'm thinking lithium grease, but yes.... lube!
I think copper grease... Mostly because it's what I have lying around that'll last longer than wd40
8:02 mouse said: “aight, ima head out”
I don't think that the 2 PVC pipes slipped on each other to make the trap sensitive enough. Perhaps coating the inner pipe with some odor free oil (canola oil) would increase its sensitivity. I also saw one mouse effect an easy escape by jumping up onto the paddle which was aimed straight down. It then climbed up and jumped out of the pail. I think it was the 1st mouse in the video. Overall, not one of the more effective traps. I think that if you'd coated the bottom of the pail with oil, that would have prevented them from escaping as well.
for the life of me I don't know why he just lets them go. Why even bother catching them unless of course you drive em a couple of miles out into the woods.
Seriously though, there's probably 100,000 mice within a mile of his barn.....
It hung on to the paddle
Peanut oil maybe? Bait but also lube
@@muskokamike127 , I read some comments or an article somewhere a few years ago written by somebody who had tried dunking the mice in food coloring, for purposes of future identification, before releasing them a mile or two away from home. The same mice came back to the same house.
It is hard for me to believe that there are any mice left with-in 5 miles of Mousetrap Monday International Headquarters.
City folk with a question here; I remember one of the earliest video of his showing why he prefers kill traps buckets to live catch buckets, namely because lots of mice trapped in a confined space led to some pretty brutal cannibalism among them... Yet since then every other time he tests a multiple livecatch, that hardly ever happen, they bite each other for a moment at worst or just sit tight and quiet most times. Just wondering if it is because of of a lot of selecting editing, or if something else gives. :o sorry for the long post!
I think the difference is that he's putting padding in the bucket now, before he would put nothing or even some kind of oil to keep them from jumping out. And that's probably what stressed the mice enough to turn them aggressive. I'd just chalk it up to a learning curve, probably encouraged by CZcams's policies. His distaste for sticky traps seems proof enough that he takes no pleasure in an animals suffering, even a pest like a mouse, so I believe that its just the change in techniques that he has developed over time.
I think I saw one of them in his old videos, but it's not beetween mice and mice like this new video, instead it was among rats and mice.
He did have one or more rats prey on the mice in a bucket trap some months ago. YT didn't like it or the followup bideo where the meat-eating rat(s) were targeted. So, not direct cannibalism, but predation has been an issue for him.
@@leiatyndall8648 those rats were brutal, kept coming back till they ate them all. Drowning them would be more humane.
@@paulwoodman5131 He didn't have a chance to get to the bucket before the rats did! Wasn't my favored outcome either, but unfortunately eat or be eaten is part of nature's life cycle.
Spinning freely and smoothly gives them the idea before hand. Spinning slightly tighter, or 1 second late will get them on it and dunk. Which is perfect.
I'd drill some small holes in the ends of the paddles to fill with peanut butter. It would make the mice work harder for the bait & the bait would last through more mice. Multiple small holes would be better than a single one that can be emptied quicker.
You could drill holes in the paddles and filled with peanut butter, that would keep the peanut butter in place longer..
Or make the paddles out of folded over aluminum screen.
Stanfordcoffee, I'd suggest using golf tees, they already have a dimple in the end....a good spot for placing the peanut butter.
Your son "Imma get cha"
Deer mice "YEET"
Anybody notice at 5:15 "This video has been removed for violating CZcams policy on violent or graphic content"? What the heck CZcams, these are great videos. Family-friendly.
On the explosive mousetrap idea, I read somewhere years ago about someone using an ammonium compound that is stable when wet but explosive when dry. They would use a common spray bottle to spray it along baseboards and places where rodents ran, and let it dry. When the rodents ran on the dry compound it would explode like a firecracker. I can't remember the formula, but I would not recommend making it. It was very unstable when dry. It was one of those things high school chemists used to remove their own fingers with back when I was young.
Also you should make a custom snap trap
This 2 almost got away using team work. 6:31
Drill holes in the end of the paddles and fill them with pb. Makes it harder for the mice to eat it before getting dunked. Also some dry teflon spray on the inside between the tubes will help with it turning.
I'd be interested in seeing a head to head of the top few traps. Whilst some are obviously more effective at working without fail, others might be better at encouraging mice by either being less alarming or making them more inquisitive. Could do like 3 at a time and see which wins over the period of a week or so?
5:50 he just wanted to go lmfao.
Shawn I have a question for you.
Is your son a Cub Scout? If so, have you considered being a pack/troop leader? I’ve always pictured you as an ideal pack/troop leader.
I was nervous that it wasn't sensitive enough, but looks like it works. The paddles look a little large though.
I'm wondering if peanut oil to lube the rubbing parts would help
If you put some silicone spray, or maybe a little plumbers’ grease, on the inside pipe of this trap, I think the outside module would spin more freely.
Also, if the radial spokes were longer, the mice would have to climb farther out to get the bait, which would be more likely to make it spin. But then you might need a larger, or at least deeper, bucket to make room for that.
10:32 The trap on the right reminds me of the Excalibur. Pull it out, and you'll gonna rule Mickeyland.
7:19 well someone was greedy >->
I liked the flash of "This Video has been removed for violating CZcams's policy on violent or graphic content" on 5:15
Been using the simpler dowel baited with peanut butter over a 5 gallon pail with some RV antifreeze. Works all winter without freezing. Great for cottage. And the mice don’t get too decomposed after drowning.
More mouse fell off than got spun off. Wheel needs lube.
Gnutzguy Also it would help to have little divots on the inside, about 4 so it can make a quarter turn, and the other side would have little humps, but they would be round and lubed, this will give the mouse a false feeling of sturdiness.
Poor Carson, just trying to show everyone deer mice
Aww, I love how they're cuddling each other.
Is it bad I laughed when the mouse accidentally pushed his buddy in the bucket?-
I can just hear this-
“ITS EVERY MAN FOR HIMSELF STEWART!!! THIS IS A LIFE OR DEATH SITUATION”
The flash said "This video has been removed for violating CZcams's policy on violent or graphic content." Thank me
ok thanks
@@natttomes4588 I got you man
Ain't nothing on this channel ever been graphic or violent.
@@ChrisGilliamOffGrid true but YT doesn't like when mice die
@@agreypencil5491 Tell me about it, my channel is mostly trapping. Real trapping.
We would call that “the wheel of misfortune.”
That moment with Carson just made me smile :)
I reckon if you trim the "paddle" part off the paddles, that will remove the end that allows the mice to cling onto like a perch... and then plop, they fall off immediately more so.
Shawn woods' son got butter fingers.
Peanut butter.
9:24 “Today on mousetrap Monday, I’ll be showing you my latest humane way to catch mice: my son catches them with his hands 😂!”
Put some powdered graphite under that spinning sleeve to lubricate it.
Also, if you make the paddles tubes and then stuff peanut butter in the ends of the tubes, the peanut butter won’t get easily consumed or fall off.
Simple trap, yet effective and cheap to make. Got to love it.
Also if you have buckets laying around but they aren't that tall, you can get away with filling it with water and they won't be able to jump out for sure!
5:15 removed for violent or graphic content!
My question is
Was this flash put up by YT or by shawn to discourage the bot from flagging it I'm thinking it might be the second
@@mancraft18 it was flashed as a joke, because youtube flags anything with a slight hint of violence.
So Shawn. How will Coppa affect your channel? Everyone seems to be panicking
You kill vermin on video and this is still the most wholesome CZcams channel of them all. Thanks for all the great videos, Shawn!
This is one of my favorite channels ever I'm so glad I dont watch normal television this is golden content and it's free
I bet all those mice went and told there friends how they outsmarted us humans,
I haven’t been this early in a while!
Me neither
Same
Ditto.
I just use a bottle with a long neck. I put peanut butter on the cap threads and spray cooking oil on the neck. Don't put water in the bottom of the bucket, that drowns the mice by slow exhaustion.
Turn down a 3 inch piece of wood to a snug fit into the PVC pipe. Drill the center to fit a length of rod ( 1/4 inch ?) Cut the wood into 6, 1/2 inch discs. Assemble it so that the center section spins freely. ( a couple of washers to keep this section from rubbing on the end pieces. This would be easy to turn using a drill press if you don"t have access to a wood lathe.
Needs a little WD 40 and water in the bucket!
Build a mouse trap where the mouse gets gased lmaoooo
Calm down, Hitler
sounds like you need a moat around your barn with a spinning paddle bridge as entry to catch those vandals.
I just spent 55$ on an electric mouse zapper, seemed like a great idea until I realized the thing goes thru batteries at rate that is brutal on the wallet & the environment. One set of batteries yielded one mouse and a wayward cricket. Needless to say will be building a couple of these today! Thanks!
This trap looks like an empty toilet paper holder
Kid manages to hold mice like I maintain my relationships. :((
If you put some plastic compatible oil between the cross pipe and the paddle tube it would spin much easier and the weight of the mouse will make it spin and catch them faster.
I am camping with Scouts (previously, Boy Scouts). I feel so guilty watching this video. Part of the bedtime routine at home....watching your vids with one of my cats draped across my chest, his gaze locked onto every mouse, rat, ‘possum, skunk, etc. Sometimes he will pat at the iPad screen, and once he even walked behind the iPad, looking for a critter! And here I am, watching, in my tent....alone! Oh, well.
BTW, Carson is adorable!
Shawn you have such a kind soul. Thank you for sharing your videos.
Pretty neat little simple trap..I might have to try the water version since I don't live in an area where I can let them go far from my house..I live next to the woods so any I release would just find their way back in, and something THAT big I'd remember to check instead of how I do with regular store bought traps..which is they are so small I forget about them and wind up only getting them when I smell the dead mouse after it's been in there for a bit..not exactly the most pleasant or healthy thing..I don't mind feeding the critters that come out of the woods as long as they stay out of my house so just dumping the bucket next to the woods would work just fine for 1)watering the grass and 2) feeding said critters.
You know it's good when Shaun builds it himself
Humans: He is a very polite and entertaining internet personality.
Rats and Mice: Behold, the destroyer of worlds!
When putting the big pipe on the small one, a bit of graphite powder between them will help them spin better.
A way to improve on the spinning paddle mouse trap is that you should've used vegetable oil, or some type of oil to make it slippery, and put in the center of the quarter inch pipe that way it would roll easily and lighter weighted mice would still be able to trigger it and fall to the bottom.
To decrease the resistance of pipe on pipe I would have put some graphite powder lube in between them before adding the sides. Also would have used a wooden dowel around 1/4 to 3/8 inch and just drilled holes all the way though that were slightly smaller than the dowel. Then from there maybe cut slits in the ends and attached the paddles that way. Just how I would do it though. Maybe using graphite would make it too sensitive.
A beer can on a coat hanger wire works very well. Spins really easily and holds peanut butter well.
It would of sounded great if you boy's response to when you asked what happened when the mouse jumped from him was, " he did a little flip "
Love to see you sharing this with your son. Love your videos too.
Put a film of "SylGlyde" lubricant [Grease] between the pipe and the inner side of the spinner where the pipe slides through. This type of grease is used on automotive braking caliper slide pins and can be obtained in automotive parts stores such as NAPA, it stays wet for over 20 years and has a very wide temperature range where it will stay slippery in extreme cold or heat.
This is just like the guillotine, where if you put a little of this grease in the grooves the blade comes down much easier.
PVC is not a good lubricating surface, which is why the trap kept getting stuck the more it spun. A self lubricating material, like brass, would've performed better.
@Shawn Woods You could put a little squirt of powdered graphite like they use to lubricate key tumblers on locks. That would alleviate the friction (rather than potentially cause more using a different lube) between the pipes without adding any additional weight wouldnt it? Just a thought....
Hey Shawn! Maybe put a hose clamp on one side outside of ring.That way you could take it apart to put olive oil on inner pipe for lube to make it spin real easy?
Awesome seeing your best helper doing such a good job of making sure the deer mice got away free. :)
A little graphite lube between the tubes will help immensely, its just a tad too sticky with no lube
grease would fix your issue with the rotational issues. I think this deserves a second video... also you should do a video explaining the gas trap you mentioned. I think people would really be interested in its mechanics.
Have you tried to see if the free-rolling ball bearings? That might make it a lot easier for it to roll.
You need to lube the inside the spinning tube and the edges, also back off the stoppers so as no to impinge the spinning part.
I think adding some kind of lubricant/grease would help it spin. Since it's very firm.
