I love watching them run around in mouse paradise. They really love that wheel. Pity the water filled one didn’t work as well.

Yes. Think of the New England “accent” stereotype. Lobster pronounced as “lobstah.” Chowder pronounced as “chowdah.” Mouser pronounced as “Mousah.”

What accent. Being born and raised in northern New England, that is the only correct way to pronounce it. The "-er" suffix is pronounced "-ah". Unless you talk funny.
Propylene Glycol is used as a non toxic anti freeze solution that won't harm pets if they drink from a coolant leak in a vehicle. It is also used by the food industry for many purposes including as an additive to keep ice cream from getting too hard.

I read the labels. If it says Propylene Glycol I do not buy it. There are several additives that are not food and I suspect it is a way to get rid of unwanted byproducts without paying for processes to make them safe. If there is something in the food your great grandma would not have used, leave it on the shelf.

Propylene Glycol is used in just about everything you eat or drink nowadays. It's used in soda, syrups you flavor you coffee with, spray whipped cream, jams and jellys, candy, medicines. If you ever had to flush your guts for medical procedure the fluid they make you drink is PG based. And if you vape your nicotine fluid is mostly propylene glycol.

Actually, its one of the TWO primary compounds commonly used in ecigarettes, the organic equivalent is vegetable glycerine. I personally prefer vegetable glycerine over propylene glycol since its smoother and while propylene glycol is inert, I don't care for the idea of using a polymer based compound in anything food or ecigarette based.

It is used as antifreeze, because ethylene glycol is hella toxic. As usual, dose makes the poison. A spoonful of propylene glycol is probably not toxic, but if you chugged that entire bottle, you're going to be featured in a chubbyemu video some day.

It’s probably Mouse-uh. It’s a New England thing like clam chowduh.
I'm from New Hampshire where the Swamp Yankees call it "N' Hampsha" and Maine residents are known as "Mainahs".
In the UK we call cats that spend a lot of their time outdoors 'Mousers' (as they're often seen stalking rodents in long grass), so I'd say that's the name the makers were going for with Mouse-ah. Interesting trap though whatever it's called :)

propylene glycol is used in the vapor industry as a base to Eliquid. its also used in a lot of food/flavorings.
Propylene glycol is also one of the main ingredients and eliquid for vaporozers and is also used in skin treatments.
That one going for a ride on the wheel made me chuckle
Mouse-AH. Think of how a person in Boston/Maine/New England would pronounce Mouser. It would be Mouse-A (short "a" rather than long "a" at the end.) When I was watching the video it looked like the spinning part ended up close to the side and wasn't able to work properly.
Oh yeh... EG, ethylene glycol, is the green-colored sweet-but-poisonous antifreeze. PG, propylene glycol, is the pink-colored "safer" antifreeze. Both EG and PG are clear, but dyed to tell them apart (like blue-colored washer-fluid, methanol).
That coconut is brilliant. Makes it really easy to empty the aquarium mouse funhouse.
I like your variation on the trap.
3:57 that mouse in the top right trying desparately to escape lol
Mouse-ah is the way new englanders would say mouser.
"The last trap you'll ever buy" Not if you're Shawn Woods.
I did notice one issue that could be improved. The spinner had migrated to the end of the round bar and was rubbing against the wall of the trap. This let mice climb on to the spinner without it rotating freely. You could see them standing on the spinner eating the bait without getting caught. If you could adapt it so that the spinner stayed in the middle of the round bar I think it would be even more effective. Keep up the great videos.
propylene glycol is one of the two compounds used in e-cigarettes to generate vapor, its also used in some smoke machines, with that in mind, its pretty inert and as far as I know; harmless. The main difference between propylene glycol and vegetable glycerine (which is what I would use since its organic), is that propylene glycol is an inorganic plastic/oil based polymer and as such, has absolutely NO nutritional value.
Float some peanut-oil on top of the water. Maybe the stank would lure some in. Bye-bye Micky Maus! 🐭🐭🐭

It needs spacers on either side of the spinner to keep it from being shoved against the sides where there is a friction brake.
I tried two or three mouse-ah traps 20+ years ago. I had bad luck with them as well and eventually gave up and threw them out. Snap-e and the flip and slide, which i learned about here, are my favorites.
Proplyne glycol food grade is safe. It is fine especially if diluted. Antifreeze is Poly Proplyne glycol, they are totally different! One is an ingredient in soda and foods the other kills you.

For decades antifreeze was ethylene glycol based which is toxic but now propylene glycol based antifreeze is being used more often because its less toxic and safer for the environment if spilled. It won't kill animals that drink it like EG based coolant would.

Instead of antifreeze, what if you used peanut oil (used) in the trap? Would be less harmful to wildlife than antifreeze
Hey, Shawn! Propylene glycol is safe. It is a natural part of fats and oils, it is released during fat digestion (or soap production). Ethyle glycol is the piosonos stuff. That is metabolised into oxalic acid in the body which make calcium oxalate crystals that shred or clod up kidneys. Love your videos!

Why would the mice bother with the liquid filled trap when there's an amusement park next door? If that aquarium was just covered by a lid with a little hole in it, once the mice realized other mice were there, they'd be lining up for admission.
I’ve often wondered if you could fill one of these spinning log type traps with CO2 or some other oxygen displacing gas instead of water. Might be a good way to catch the mice who “sense” water.

Propylene glycol is what allows all those prepackaged cup cakes to seem moist even after a year on the shelf.
Maine accents sometimes will pronounce words ending in er as ah. So we say super as supah. So I would assume it's ment to say the maine mouser just written like a maine accent.
What state is this? Some of the mice you catch look like cactus mice (deermice with naked tails and feet).
I feel like it’s like yelling “Ahhhh!” Like they were gonna say ‘the Maine mousetrap’ but the mouse fell in and got caught so fast but they couldn’t finish. Like they’re trying to be funny or something. Lol
Must've had uploading problems! Nearly 6 hrs late! That's OK, we'll still watch! "The Maine Mouser" w/ the Maine accent, would rhyme w/ caw (like the caw of a crow), but written -ah, where car is pronounced "cah". Therefore, Maine Mouse-ah ("aw"). Canadian "eh" sounds more like the letter "A".
