Texting Mouse Trap

The RADAR super mouse trap is capable of sending a text when it captures a mouse. It has infra red beams, a trick floor and a poisonous gas dispenser. When a mouse is detected a measured dost of gas is pumped out killing the mouse. Looking at the image I was expecting to see it is a concept device… but fear not, this thing is for real. Once the mouse is dead it also fires off a text message to you with an update of the mouse being killed. Seems a bit unfair for the mouse, but Rentokil say it’s a humane way of dealing with it. Tech Digest at the link at the bottom of this post have an image of the actual device.
