Ratinator Multi-Catch Rat Trap

The Ratinator is a one-of-a-kind humane multi-catch rat trap designed to catch swarms of rats in hours — not days. It catches up to 21 rats per setting without dangerous poisons, sticky glue boards, or harmful snap traps. Part of the Rugged Ranch family of multi-catch traps — trusted for over 15 years with hundreds of thousands sold and stocked in farm stores and retail outlets nationwide.

Why choose the Ratinator over poison or snap traps?

Rat poison is dangerous for children, pets, and wildlife — and poisoned rats often die inside walls, creating horrible smells that last for weeks. Snap traps catch one rat at a time and leave a mess. The Ratinator catches up to 21 rats alive in a single setting, so you can relocate them far from your property. No poison residue, no dead rats in your walls, no risk to your family or pets.

How does the Ratinator work?

Rats enter through two spring-loaded entry doors, attracted by bait placed inside the large wire mesh chamber. Once inside, the doors close behind them, trapping rats humanely without injury. The open mesh design lets rats see and smell the bait from outside, which dramatically outperforms solid-walled traps. Bait with peanut butter, bacon grease, or pet food, place in areas with rat activity, and check daily.

Where can I use the Ratinator?

The Ratinator is built for serious rat problems in homes, barns, attics, basements, garages, restaurants, warehouses, farms, and commercial buildings. Its durable galvanized steel construction withstands outdoor weather conditions while remaining effective indoors. Professional pest control operators and homeowners alike rely on the Ratinator for large-scale rat infestations.
