Don’t let the discreet, low-profile design of the Victor® Zapper Max™ Outdoor Rat Trap fool you. This professional-strength trap was built to withstand indoor and outdoor conditions to effectively eliminate rats from your property. A built-in indicator light will alert you when a catch is made or the batteries are low. Trappers of all experience levels will enjoy the ease of use, safety features, and high kill rates this trap provides.
Water-Resistant Design
Most electronic rat traps are for indoor use only. The Victor® Zapper Max™ Outdoor Rat Trap changes that completely by providing protection indoors and outdoors. Designed to be weather-resistant, this trap can be placed nearly anywhere outdoors where you are experiencing rodent problems. Made of durable plastic, the trap seals tightly to keep water from entering the trap, making it ideal for eliminating rodents outside before they have a chance to invade your home.
Dual-Entry Tunnel Ensures Higher Kill Rates
Rodents prefer to travel along the base of walls and are more likely to enter a tunnel when they can see through it entirely. The Outdoor Electronic Rat Trap features dual-entry points that ensure higher kill rates and encourage rodent interaction. Once inside, rodents are quickly eliminated with a humane, high-voltage shock. The trap can catch one rat per entry point, so make sure to check the trap frequently for a catch or two!
Built-In Safety Features
When it comes to safely eliminating rodent infestations, Victor® leads the way. The Victor® Zapper Max™ Outdoor Rat Trap features two door locks on the front of the trap to keep the lid securely closed. Each trap comes with Kill-Switch technology that automatically shuts off the trap when the lid is open. Tunnel baffles help prevent small hands, fingers, and paws from coming into contact with the electrified plates and also prevent rats from backing out of the trap. This trap contains no poisons or toxins, making it an ideal choice for homes with kids and pets.
Low-Profile, Economic Design
Not all rat traps can be described as sleek or even low-profile. The Victor® Zapper Max™ Outdoor Rat Trap can be used indoors and outdoors without disrupting your home décor. The trap is sleek enough to fit underneath furniture and outdoors it blends seamlessly into your property.In addition to its professional design, the Zapper Max™ Outdoor Rat Trap Outdoor Electronic Rat Trap can save you money over time. The removable bait cup ensures perfect placement of bait every time and attracts rodents to the exact spot they need to stand to be eliminated. However, the bait cup does not allow rodents to eat the bait which means less wasted bait!

Be patient. I purchased this trap (not from here) 01/2023. I hate killing anything but now the problem is out of hand and I will NOT poison any animal. I baited the trap every single morning since the purchase but never turned it on. I was conditioning the rats to go in and out and feel safe doing so. This morning I decided enough is enough. I turned it on and used what I always used - canned cat food, anything as long I don't harm the squirrels. I had it set for 10 minutes and the green light was blinking. I could not believe it. I caught one. I reset the trap and within an hour I got another one, ten minutes later I got another one. That's three today. It does make me feel good that their death is so quick. I have to catch more but that was enough for one day. Just be patient and don't expect them to just run tight in. Condition them for a bit like I did. Then turn it on. Good luck
Bought this because of the all weather design. No kills for 4 months. Relocated and got 6 kills, then no kills for 4 mo.I tried baiting out of the holder several times still no kills only feeding. Called victor they replaced it with the same one. Once again no kills only feeding. I even placed some mice from the classic zapper and let them sit for 3 days then re-baited, still only feeding???Had the classic traps in the same location 25 kills. I like the all weather design but did not work???!

Not as good as indoor model

I purchased two of these to use around my house. I have never had a single successful trapping using these despite having them deployed for months, and yet my older indoor model has zapped a half dozen mice and rats just a few feet away. (I had a known mouse problem in my garage and deployed my outdoor model and after days of no success, set up my older indoor model and had success immediately.) I think the center location for bait is not attractive enough to rodents. The indoor model works perfectly, but I have to remember to bring it inside in inclement weather. I won’t be ordering more of these outdoor models.
Thank you for sharing this feedback. We're sorry to hear that the desired results have not yet been seen with these traps. You could try rubbing a little bit of peanut butter scent around the openings of the trap to make it more enticing to the rats.

I have had this trap for months, moved it around, and never caught anything. I have other traps that work great.
Thank you for sharing this feedback. We're sorry to hear that the desired results were not yet seen with this trap. If given a choice, a mouse will go to a trap in the open vs. a trap he has to enter to reach the bait. To take full advantage of the "no touch, no view" disposal of the electronic traps, we recommend removing any snap traps from the area. Reach out to us at 1-855-584-2867 with any questions.

Took our colony a few days to be less suspicious of the trap.... but then we had success. Largest rat we have observed was in there. Hoping for ongoing success.
I can't say there are no more rats, but thanks to the Zapper Max the local population is down. I had rats in the garden and even in the tomatoes on the porch. I won't use poisons around my dogs or the local wildlife which includes raptors and owls. This trap is great as it is safe outside and can handle multiple kills without battery replacement. It's easy to bait and although it takes the rats time to decide it is safe to enter, I've caught quite a few, enough that I invested in a second Zapper Max. I am hoping that using them through the winter when food sources are limited will cut the population down.
After seeing results of secondary poisoning I decided to remove all my bate stations. I had one M460UC and purchased 5 more. They work really well - getting 1-3 mice pretty much every day. I run them on Energizer Extreme Lithium batteries (Sam's Club sells them at a decent price). Peanut butter + peanuts is my bate.
I was very excited for this trap to arrive. DC has had a massive influx of rats this past year, so I was ready for the body count. I should have taken a photo ... two days after setting this trap right next to a burrow, a rat actually defecated on top of it. I have had this trap set and baited for four months and have had ZERO kills. The trap has been set off a few times, but nada. I'll keep it outdoors to see if it finally tricks a rat to come in, but this looks like it was a complete waste of $100+. I cannot recommend this trap. What I can recommend is a sturdy shop broom, which I have used to kill more rats than this overpriced contraption.
Thank you for sharing this feedback. We're sorry to hear that the desired results were not seen with this trap. It is backed by a 30 day return policy. Reach out to us directly for assistance.

Looks like it will work well. It is setup in my garage, no visitors, yet.
Had for over a year. Worked great in grain sprouting fodder unit that gets doused with water multiple times per day. Only complaint is 4 AA lithium batteries last about 4 kills max or just a few months if there was even one kill during those months. Unknown how long batteries would last with no kills because it's never made it 4 months without a kill. Trying alkaline AA now and 1 kill and still 50% battery left after 2 weeks. The unit works great, just expensive to replace lithium batteries every few months. Wish there was a way to just plug it in.
