Default How can a mouse trap be tripped and no mouse?

I set up a mouse trap in the garage and have caught several mice

After several peaceful months, I found the trap tripped again and the peanut
butter all gone, but there is no mouse to be found anywhere. How is this
possible?

This is the trap I use:http://www.pestcontrol-products.com/...ictor_trap.jpg


The trap could have tripped after you set it due to vibration or a
bump. Then, the mice cleaned it out. Just try again.

False trips are a part of having a hair trigger.
