ABSTRACT:
A mouse trap includes first and second telescopically related housing members which are movable between extended and retracted positions. A door opening is provided in one of the housing members which provides access to the interior of the housing when the housing is in its extended position but which is blocked by the other housing member when the housing is in its retracted position. A spring biased striker arm is mounted within the housing members and is adapted to be held in a cocked position by a trigger arm when the housing members are extended. Actuation of the trigger arm causes the striker arm to deliver a lethal blow to a mouse who has released the trigger arm and also causes the housing members to be simultaneously moved to their retracted position.
