We’ve already seen a couple different approaches to improving the mousetrap here on Geekologie, both of which were questionable at best. And here comes another! God, just zappity-zap those bitches with laser vision like a normal damn person. Built by a bloke called Jake Easton, the trap is housed in a beautifully designed, shiny, aluminum case. It works using a combination of complex series of solenoids, electronic control circuitry and a heavy-duty pneumatic actuator. The 40 to 60 PSI of compressed air can deliver a death blow of 102 pounds to the pesky rodent. I thought the whole appeal of those cheap-ass, spring-loaded joints was that you could throw the whole damn thing away afterward and you didn’t have to mess with the dead mouse. Also, that they don’t require being hooked up to a compressor. But what do I know about product design? I’m just the guy that invented the yellow lines that show up when you watch football games on television. I’m so rich it’s sick. Still, for $100 I’ll trip this thing with my wang. Acme mousetrap uses compressed air to splat furries [dvice] Thanks to maria, who disposes of rodents the old fashioned way: by hiring a hitman. No, not pest control, an actual guy with a gun . Brutal!

Because even problematic varmints deserve a proper burial to ensure their Micky Mouse souls can get into heaven , design studen Sarah Déry created these mouse trap coffins. This package was developed to solve the problem of neatly disposing of caught vermin by building the trap itself into a mini, rodent-sized coffin. With a simple slogan atop the box (Oh My God! Mouse Trap) the container can be opened using the lid… or not, for the more squeamish pest catchers among us. Neat idea, but I used to bullseye womprats in my T16 back home, they’re not much bigger than 2 meters. And then we’d barbeque them (not unlike Uncle Owen!). Ever had barbequed womprat? Similar taste to Rodents of Unusual Size. ZOMG — Star Wars and Princess Bride references in the same post, I DESERVE AN AWARD!

Typically I don’t post movie posters because that’s IWatchStuff’s job, but I’m making an exception in this case because DISNEY STOLE GEEKOLOGIE’S TAGLINE. You think you can just change “awesome” to “guinea pigs” (which, incidentally are a synonym for awesome) and get away with it? THINK AGAIN, YOU DIRTY RODENT ! Now, which one of you wants to call Disney and pretend to be a lawyer? Somebody with a deep voice. G-FORCE movie poster [disneydreaming] Thanks to Ben, who pleads guilty to dead sexiness.
