Today for Mousetrap Monday I have another antique mouse trap to show you. That’s a variation on the classic snap style design. This is called the Last Word mousetrap. It was first patented by Olin Booth of Cainsville, Montana on September 17, 1940 and obviously the inventor put quite a bit of thought into building a better mousetrap. What he came up with was a mousetrap with a spring up front, attached to a kill bar and a trigger system that works on a teeter-totter with a lever and back and a hook. This is really easy to set you pull it back. That’s all you need to do it’s ready to go, you put bait on the trigger, the mouse comes along steps on that releases the hook and you got em’. Now if you saw last week’s video on the Swedish Choker mousetrap, you know I love planting heirloom garden seeds. And I have a problem with mice in my greenhouse coming in and killing my tomatoes. It’s really frustrating I lost over a month and a half of starts and I replanted and I want to have the last word on who gets to eat my tomatoes. Not the mice. So we’re gonna set this up on the seed flat. They’re gonna come tonight. Try to get those tomato seeds but instead they’re gonna have a surprise with this antique mouse trap. Let’s go set up the motion cameras *snap* These mice have just been completely destroying my tomato starts in the greenhouse and last night we were able to get one of these pests with this antique snap trap to remove it you pull back the kill bar and give a little flip. Now, I love testing out antique and vintage mousetraps. There’s so many different designs. This is a really great modification on the classic snap trap. I’m posting between 4 and 5 rodent trap videos a week. So if you want to see how to catch mice, rats, squirrels, chipmunks, moles, voles and gophers stay tuned. *snap*
Give him a little flip
oooo
Cainsville is in Missouri
I want to see a video where you set all the traps at once
just put a few bowls of oil in the garden..lol
It censored itself, nice
just didnt post link,where that mouse suffered after being caught at trap
Put some gloves on dude!
putting in my vote for mulltiple bowls of peanut oil set up to see how many you can catch in one night
Cainsville Missouri. Montana is MT.
i knew it would work because it is an antique mouse trap. those were the best!
What is you normal monthly mousetrap bill look like Shawn?
Whatever it costs, we thank you!
Can you open up at PO Box I have stuff waiting to mail you.
"Tomatoes"… Sure, whatever excuse you need to keep making videos. I hope you can find many more reasons.
I need a diy mousetrap that will kill a large mouse fairly quickly.. does anyone know any style I could use that's easy to make?
Just so ya know >> Mo. = Missouri Mt = Montana Thanks for killing vermin in Mo or Mt !!!!
Missouri not Montana
Cainsville, MISSOURI. MO is Missouri. Montana is MT
I know its frustrating when pests eat your vegetable plants. I once had that problem with groundhogs and deer. you want to get rid of the mice destroying your tomatoes? use the all metal mousetraps, with teeth. Joe
dead mouse? just give it a little flip.
great trap, i like this channel. everytime i come here, its a different and interesting trap. lol
You destroy my tomatoes, i destroy you.
I got an advertisement! Nice
Last word of mouse.
Why do you keep mice just to use them to show off their death and even when some aren’t your mice you still want to show off the death of an animal
Well you didn't hide the "final moment" and I got a commercial. So maybe YouTube is learning?
I find your videos relaxing.
video idea. Setout ALLLLLLLLLLL of your traps one night!
Should be called last squeak mouse trap.
It was actually Cainsville Missouri
since you can't use water to kill the mice in a bucket-style trap AND put that footage on youtube, maybe try packing peanuts? Something non-solid that provides little to no support if the mouse tries to jump out. Maybe sand or sawdust?
0.25x speed for sadistic people :)))
Cool trap, but it seems like it wasn't very sensitive.
Not Montana.
MO = Missouri
MT = Montana
MN = Minnesota
Coooooooooool!
Stuart little 😂😂😂😂
This is completely out of subject, but how on earth do you keep tomato starts alive? Please help!
Best way to get rid of rodents is a
MOAB.
The inventor was from Cainsville, Missouri, not Montana. The abbreviation for Montana is MT; Missouri is MO.
Cool video
17 dickheads on the counter
Who else comes here every week to watch mice die 🙂
That trigger didn't seen very sensitive, at least it got him.
Make a video where you set all your mouse traps and see how many mice you kill in a single night
R.I.P
Anyone here dissect any mice or rats? I'm curious how strong their spines are. Some of these traps don't seem that strong.
Can we talk about how many mouses he have in his house😐
Awesome thanks for the heads up on your way of eliminating mice
So why aren't all basic snap traps based on this design? Those base model Victor traps are a pain to set, and the plastic snappers don't last more than two times due to the latch being made from plastic (which then breaks if the mouse or rat puts any effort into escaping).
Bruhh this is probably the single easiest to set mousetrap
Enlarge it and bait it with fried chicken, watermelon, crack, a broken firearm, or a $20 bill, and you see the problem. You only get one and the others steal the bait.
"Give it a little flip…"
"Give it a little tug…"
"Get down tonight."
NOT the mice!!! Plant the tomatoes,expect to eat the tomatoes. Good luck with that.
Hilarious.
how to kill a mouse

step 4 wait until it gets dark
step 5 go to sleep
step 6 wake up in the morning
step 7 watch your cat having a mouse in its mouth
step 8 you got the rodent kill cat tram
Gimme a little flip ~
I love you Chanel
I tolerate mice in the compost box but once they get into my strawberry field they're dead to me.
What do you do to the mice corpses?
Ryan gets the last word!
Here at YouTube we value money and our political views therefor you cant rate big companies ad‘s and all political views we don’t agree with get labeled as controversial and demonized. Thank you and may we make money off of your things.
Still no match for that bowl of oil
Antique cheap wood
"Pull back the spring and give a little flip."
Just wait for the revenge of the mice… In your sleep they will enter your room and revenge their family and friends…
What Shawn doesn't tell you is that for 4 nights out of the week he feeds them Viagra……
Please never stop uploading Shawn! Great Video as always! :DD
you forget to spilt video to private video to see the trap in action!
Wow…. that's a Tom and Jerry Mouse Trap😂
Well done to Mr Olin Booth, whose product has stood the test of time.
“Mo” stands for Missouri. Montana is “MT.”
Are you still eating these mice after killed???
Cainsville Missouri, Montana is MT
Any last words
Mouse – Squeak
Nice but it's a very basic trap and it only catches 1 I like the more advanced traps
I read that as “last world”
Anyone able to guess what the mouse's last words were? :/
When you give it a little flip, would you please show more of the mouse flipping in air, thanks 🙂
Really, this system to set the trap is a real improvement, superior to the trap system of today… No danger too snap your finger. A very good design. Ans the last word is : OUTCH !
Was looking for a hand cannon but this is fine too
I Like the Hawk-Moon Better
Your trick you showed last year about planting a part of the tomato stem in the soil has skyrocketed my tomato production. thanks man.
Mice destroyed my 401k a few years ago; X-Terminator mousetrap solved that.
Et tu, Brute?
Was this the antique 'last word'?
SOMEBODY TOUCHE MY TOMATO!
I wonder how many mice this dude would get if he set up every mouse trap he owns in one night
You need to adopt some cats
I made a tiny Last Word mousetrap! It's two inches long, and why won't it let me paste a link of it to you D:
the last word? more like the last backflip XD
I don't even know why I watch your videos. I don't even have mouse problems. But for some reason I just cant stop watching. Almost always the highlight of the YouTube viewing time each day.
December 17th,1940! Exactly 53 years before I was born! LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!
Caughtcha self a mouse?
Lemme give ya tip
Pull back the kill bar and give it lil flip
G I V E T H T H Y M O U S E A L I T T L E F L I P
The trigger seems a little sticky. Is that just the age or because of the design?
Poor mice 🐁 🙁 .. but I get it
caught lackin'
I got excited and thought it was a Last Word replica gun from destiny shooting the mouse….so disappointed
I think I have seen 3 different companies with "cool" names using this exact trigger mechanism. I guess the patent has worn out. This design is the best I've seen for snap-trap triggers.
Clever name for a mouse trap, Last Word.
Last word epp
Hey
