Thank you Mountain Dew :)
I love your videos!
What camera do you use to record in the dark?
Happy 1.51 million subscribers
Please do a video on mosquito trap next
Some of these mice literally pushed some of their friends into the bucket!
Bit his leg 😂😂
I laughed out loud at that one.
Peanut butter is serious business in the mouse underworld.
It's a mouse shove mouse world out there.
"Long live the king!"
5:36 Skunk : "Oh boy.. the buffets open!!"
3:46 that mouse just betrayed his brother lion king style😂
I'm so glad that I'm not the only one laughing at that one, he almost had it! 🤣
Yessss@
Look at how they are all waiting in line 😂
Long live the mouse.
Each time the skunk took a mouse, he had a happy little skip in his step as he went into the bushes 😁 I really like the wildlife feeding portion of your videos, Shawn. Thanks!
Are they dead mice?
Lol I thought the same thing . One happy skunk
@@kathrynberry4055 They had to be euthanized, yes. They're not native to where he lives and are not only a pest, but an invasive/introduced species. Not good when they're not from there! Just ask any Newfoundlander how much they love their Miramichi moose? Or another popular one, purple lustrife, an invasive plant you see in the ditches choking out the wetlands.
@@kathrynberry4055 Yes dead.
Not sure id want to attract skunks with mice, but definitely a good easy trap to make.
I'm pretty sure that was the same skunk eating all of those mice...and he looked surprised to find them each time he came back into the clearing.
SKUNK: (arriving at clearing) "Damn, Dear Mice ARE still out of stock?"
Definitely the same one, could tell by the stripes and tail. Neat to see how much they go by smell at night eh?
He probably stashed them
Love how mouse #1 is struggling to hang onto the side there for a good eight seconds before mouse #2 comes over and pushes him in at 3:47. 😂🤣
he felt like Scar lmao
If you honestly find this entertaining you're sick in the head!
Squid Game
I know I laughed and laughed..... I can't believe the others go up there when they should be able to see and hear the ones in the bucket? what they don't sound the alarm don't try it it's a trap! nothing? smh so much for camaraderie! LOL
"Oh, what's that Jerry? You're stuck? Let me help...TAKE THAT JERRY THATS FOR STEALING MY CHAIR WHO GETS THE LAST LAUGH NOW?
The skunk did a little gleeful hoppity-hop when gathering those mice. Shawn, you really make the world a happier place for skunks, opposums and birds of prey.
The conclusion is: you really don't need to buy any mousetraps at the store.🤔 There goes a billion dollar industry up in smoke.🤨
Always has been
Same as every industry. Not sure that’s even a halfway relevant conclusion.
checked the local hardware store. mouse traps out of stock. 20L bucket in stock.
@@nanopi Check the local liquor store, Mountain Dew still in stock.
Depending where the trap needs to be placed though. This trap will not work everywhere
I want to thank you Shawn,I used this to catch my daughters hamster,took two days,much appreciated.
Awesome sauce, great idea for the runaway pets too! Did she get out of her hamster ball? My Deenie was a PRO! 🤣 ❤️
Lol
cool got oh hairy back .
Aaaand this would be the LIVE trap approach!
@@giterdone9013he actually put water in the bucket. RIP hamster
Love the longer 8 to 10 minutes videos
No filler, either.
We all know that Skunk smashed that Like button!!!
That skunk looked so happy to find the mice pile. Love the way he ran away with each one 🤣
Been following for a long time, watching these is just awesome. Makes me feel good that you feed the local wildlife. They have a hard life too.
Wow! watching them communicate with each other is crazy and amazing. This is a great tip!
I always look forward to your uploads. Thank you for posting, your voice is very soothing.
when you build a better mouse trap Shawn breeds a smarter mouse.
His pet mice have PTSD
@@richardcruz102 yup 😂
I can't believe I'm even saying this about a mouse but it was cute how quick they jumped in his hand, he's good to them!
I tried one of these at my house. The mouse was too cautious of the rotating cylinder. I bought a plank style trap and ended up catching all 3 mice in my garage. Wasn't perfect either, required some tuning.. camera helps a lot!
... your audience comments are so entertaining I really enjoy both the video the comments and your presentations constantly thank you!!!!
They need millions of these traps in Australia!!!
Theyll just wait for the next big fire
Thanks, 30 bucket traps, 12 lift lid kill bar traps and 2 electric traps (for those Ninja mice) around the house. Numbers have come down from 200-300 / night to around 20.
I'm on it... I'll increase my beer consumption massively... where do I send the cans?
Honestly dude I’m getting sick of the mice over here. Killed dozens of these things this year alone and they don’t disappear.
Nah more like nyc
Great idea we have plenty of field mice. I liked how 1 mouse pushed the other one in. Definitely trying this.
Seen this idea a few years ago from the Boss Of The Swamp channel. He added water and sunflower seeds. The seeds floated so the mice didn't see the water below. Worked great for him.
Thank you for the video. I've tried sticky traps, snap traps, live capture traps and this bucket trap was exactly what I needed. Easy to make, placed one in the attic, cellar and RV. All of them worked very efficiently.
I'm a subscriber and watch your videos regularly. They are excellent. Thank you!
This is what i use. I uses 2 12 oz cans and a 5 gallon bucket. Peanut butter bait.
I love how your mice were just like "Eff that nonsense, I know what's coming..."
Interesting video, well explained and filmed. I loved the mother rat rescuing the kids too.
That is absolutely AMAZING trap
Loving the mouse trap content!!
keep making those great videos! keep the wholesome attitude up!
Music to my ears each time I hear, 'non native species in a livecatch'!
1:39 do you buy those clear buckets by the pallet at costco? You seem to have a never ending supply lol
He mentioned in a video a good while back that finding a *clear* bucket for video purposes was surprisingly difficult and ridiculously expensive. IIRC it was something like $70 USD for a clear bucket.
@@Dosbomber Yeah I remember that, that's why I said "a pallet at costco" because when you do that, you get them much cheaper.....
The buckets are 20qt Cambros.... Its like commercial grade Resturaunt 'tupperware'.... Go to a pro kitchen store
@@Dosbomber WY cost so much. Need some here in TEXAS. DALLAS AREA. NEED SUPPLIES TO BUILD SOME OF THESE.. THANKS
STM - Shaun Trapped Mice “Finger licking good” - skunk
Yeah! "Humane dispatch" is on!!!
My dad taught me how to make one of these back in '83 when I spent a summer with him in Winnemucca Nevada. We were up in the himbolt mountains where he worked for a mining company.
Another Great Idea !! I'll spread it around... Cause its that time of year. And the rain here in NE Texas has been a sight to see.
Exceptional idea especially for those of us who can't afford critter traps!!!
The man who could have save australia
Him and Elon, problems solved.
Too many for a few buckets
@@jasonchitts377 constant trapping during the early stages could have prevented this outcome
@@desmondtang1952 No better time to start than right now!
3:40 Mouse 1: Oh sh*t, need some help here! Mouse 2: *Proceeds to push Mouse 1 and run off like it was nothing* Mouse 1: Fu*k.
Exactly!
Mouse 2 owed mouse 1 $20.
@@mikedunn7795 now I know not to ask that mouse for money
Skunk version of an "8pc bucket".
The thousand and one ways to make the unbeatable bucket trap.
Great idea !! I got field mice on my carport. Thank you !
Australia needs Shawn Woods!!!
That Skunk really loved those mice. It just kept coming back for more.
I suggest the peanut butter is put on not using a finger. You don't want the scent of a human on the trap.
Thanks so much, great video! Just made a version of this when I discovered two mice holed up in my old houseslippers lol. If there's more hiding, I hope this will catch them haha.
Not sure where you live but here in Eastern Canada they start coming in where it's warm once all the fields are harvested and temps are dropping. A friend was watching one steal dog food and feed the wood pile the other night, lol! An ex emptied out an old workboot full of dog food too, looked good on him though, hah!
Everybody in Australia should be watching your videos right now, the mice plague here is insane!!
You guys need to bring in a few million Jack Russell pups. That will help.
@@grayghost6692 and a mink lol minks and dogs
Our mice jump to the counter tops,we must have the froggy mice.
I tell other people about you who have mice and rat trap issues you make good traps and show good ones keep up the hard work
No vews 7 likes you tube is broken Edit: 3:44 Mouse “help me I’m about to fall!” Other mouse *pushes him in
I'd bet people "liked" it even before watching it.
@@automaticmattywhack1470 lol yup
Although it was a bit unsatisfying, I loved the footage of the rat mom rescuing her babies. ❤️ An alternative to adding water might be using a higher bucket?
I've used this for years and they work extremely well. I put RV antifreeze in my buckets. They die, don't smell and won't freeze. The RV antifreeze won't harm anything that might drink it
Antifreeze will kill anything that eats it! Use water or salt water
@@cmb52 RV antifreeze is safe for animals. Where I live we get -30 temps throughout the winter. Water even salt water would just offer an ice rink for the mice. The RV anti freeze is animal safe and environmentally friendly in general. It kills the mice and keeps them from smelling all winter. It's not pretty or fun but it is a necessity when you live in a very rural area and the mice have zero boundaries! Have a great day!
Ok, if you say so.
@@cmb52 it's not me saying so it's a fact. Look it up. Hope you Have a great day
@@kimberlymarino7344 Some antifreeze is lethal to animals/humans too! Be sure you specify the non-toxic kind!
Shawn puts the pet mice on the trap. Conversation between the mice; Mouse #1 "Does he really expect us to fall for this again?" Mouse #2 "He does. Well I'll show him, I'm just gonna sit here. Wait! No! Don't put me theeeerrrre!" . . . "Dammit!"
I have been using it for years works great,add antifreeze for year round use, and it eliminates any oder for long term unattended use
My dad does this; he taught me about it years ago. I just wish it would work on roaches.
@@jessicareutercastrogiovann5796 for roaches n bed bugs use that stuff you put places that does something to their shells as they walk through it n kills them, many will die n other wont hang out there anymore
Double the ramps, double the mice. Gloves Shawn, gloves. Protect yourself and your family.
Gloves to prevent putting human scent on bait & trap.
Pretty simple and easy. I like it. Thanks. Peace and good days and nights.
The rat mama was brave to go get her baby... Thanks for the excellent video.❤
Fun fact mice will send out the dumbest youngest mouse to go test the food...long story short they know what poison is and are more intelligent than what we like to believe.
Great channel, thanks. The local animals must wonder where all these free mice come from.
Shawn I think Australia needs your help. even all your traps now wont save it have you seen the infestation? It is absolutely ridiculous.
Australian here, I hear you bro .
Sydney based here. At least we don’t have to worry about Bunnings running out of mouse traps, just build our own!
I wanna see a rat trap like this as rats here are too smart in Australia
Call the mink man bro. Seriously check out his channel. He’s like an aggressive “mouse trapper”
Your pet mice must just cry when they see you.
Absolutely brilliant !!
I am going to make one of these now. Thanks! 👍🏻👍🏻
Excellent trap, thanks!
3:39 after the mouse was about to fall the mouse behind just finished it lmao xD
This trap works. I tested it myself before but if there are foxes or other larger animals around then they will lick off the peanut butter. We found an even easier and more effective method. Just smear some peanut butter on the inside of a bucket and then fill the bucket with enough water so mice and rats cant touch the bottom. Then put another bucket upside down next to the trap bucket and put a little ramp on it. All mice and rats will jump in the trap bucket and drown if the distance between the buckets is not too far or close.1-2 inches works well. We killed all the rats on our property this way....they all drowned in the bucket and they deserved it because they killed our Quails.
You should make a video of your trap.
Poor mouses just wanted some Mountain Dew and they got pranked
Plural: Mice Singular: Mouse
Prank as in ☠️
Shawn you're an inspiration.
You made that skunk so happy 👍👍👍
I was thinking that the raccoon I mean the skunk was bringing those dead mice back to its babies to feed them
What's the smallest bucket one could use without mouse being able to get back out?
I wasn't having much luck with snap traps in my shed so I figured why not give this a try. It caught one mouse overnight.
I'm stupidly early! I love you Shawn!
It always the skunk that gets the mice! I miss the days when birds of prey would take them.
brilliantly done! you could not have made this trap look easier to set up! thk u for the vid! btw, just outta curiosity, how did u humanely end the lives of the mice you caught?
usually, just fill it with a few inches of cold water......the mice die of hypothermia....
Apparently he has suggested using CO2...there are KZhead videos on how to DIY make some that I'd assume you could capture the gas in another 'kill bucket'.
Holy crap. It's like a wipeout course for mice!
Shawn love your videos & knowledge. How do you kill them to feed to wildlife?
These mouse trap vids are so addictive 🤣
Mother rat deserves a spa day. What a legend
My husband just found 3 mice in a jug of water he used last summer & never capped. It reminded me of these DIY bucket traps. Now i wanna set them up in my barns & garage!
Been using this at the cabin for 30 years or more!!! 💚😂🤣💚still works 👍🏼💚🤣😂🤣
@shawnwoods I feel like you should have completely eradicated all mice from your barn by now
The metal on metal screeching sounds pulls the soul out of my body
As an Australian in a mouse plague, I want to give you the biggest thanks - am off to the shops to buy some cans of drink!
Did it work?
@@garyRoboto We setup several traps and bait stations. Didnt catch any mice with this trap, but we did catch the dog licking the peanut butter off it. I used 2 cans end on end to get a larger "roller"
Gotta try this. Thanks!
Good creation
I've done it with this trap. It works 😊
Mice: we ain’t playing your games no mo Shawn.
Very resourceful.
3:40 "Brother! Help me!" 3:46 "Long live the king"
Shawn do you still have full service Gas Station in the state of Oregon? Great video watch them every Monday.
Wow ! Was only posted 18 minutes ago, I usually only see videos from 4 years ago.
Finally here so early, the comments & likes are under 20 each. I bet that skunk was overjoyed that it didn't have to share :)
Please do a video on mosquito trap
We live next to a dumpster and not too far from fields. I have been using snap traps but every time we get one it jolts me awake lol. I may have to try this!
Id like to see you have a video talk about the mouse plauge.
In Australia ? They need 1000 Shaun's
Nice video Shawn
"Hey, anybody seen Mickey? He was here a second ago and now he's gone. That Mickey is always disappearing."
he has stunt mice written in to his contract...Minnie...does all her own stunts
Instead of Water you could use just a bit of cooking oil. That way it's still a live catch trap, but much harder to escape.
The water drowns them.
For rats, are you adding water deep enough to drown them, or just prevent them from escaping?
I'd rather they drowned because I wouldn't want to risk being bit by one
