[nb-NO]Description[nb-NO]
This is a multi-catch live box mouse trap with a see-saw action. The see-saw plank provides a one-way entrance system into the box, trapping the mouse but not killing it. This trap could catch several mice at a time. It was purchased by the donor at an antique's shop in Stratford-upon-Avon, and the donor believed it came from Warwickshire.
