Victor Pest Customer Insights

1. There should be a "ping my trap" button that sends back a signal all is well: Trap is armed, battery is x percentI was all set to give the worst of reviews but after hours of troubleshooting, I got the thing to work, here's how: I tried to do the normal connect my rat trap to the internet setup and it kept failing, then I realized that it had succeeded but the app didn't become aware of this and it would time out waiting for the rat trap to connect and report back that it had done so.

2. I removed the trap device from my phone and went through the setup process again, same issue!After buying two of the Wi-Fi enabled traps and not being able to link either one to the app I contacted Victor Tech support.

3. It's RIDICULOUS.Had this trap working for a while, but my wifi name and password changed and so I had to go through the setup fresh.

4. Says the trap is online and connected to the wifi when the router it is connected to is unplugged.

5. Now, it gets as far as successfully connecting to the trap's wifi, and then hangs at 'something went wrong'.

6. It took me about 2 min to set up the trap and get connected to WiFi.

7. They tried walking me through the exact same steps then sent me a new trap since they couldn't get it to link either.

8. Also, it's clear that the rat trap only goes online no matter what it says, when it has something to report, such as a kill.

9. Exit out of the setup and you will find that your rat trap is there but most likely it will be reporting that it is offline.

10. The trap armed and caught a mouse within 12 hours and I got the alert.

11. I try to explain and they just keep reading down the chart.3 hours later and I have been able to get one out of many smart traps connected.
