摘要

The mousetrap comprises a box-shaped lower housing (1) which is open at the front (8) and top. A second box (2) is mounted in this on a pivot (4) with its open side downwards. Bait (7) is placed on a shelf (6) at the base and to the rear of this box and acts as a counterweight, so that the box swivels down to catch the mouse when the bait is eaten.
