No more mice in your apartment thanks to this handy dining table, which actually spots, then exterminates [pesky rodents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thanos-home) before they dig into some cheese at your expense. The Mouse-Eating Coffee Table uses an LED graphic display on its top and a virtual iris. This virtual iris is what spots the crazy critters, which are then sucked up by a shoot. The table does not only eat mice, it actually lures them as well by creating an easy access point for mice to reach any crumbs that may be left over on the table. After the mouse is caught, it is then used to power the [LCD display atop the table](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-purifier-table). This somewhat morbid furniture will let any mouse-plagued person sleep soundly through the night. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.4/10 - Popularity: 36% | Activity: 29% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/furniture) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Rodent-eliminating Furniture:** Create furniture pieces designed to eliminate rodents for a pest-free home. - **Smart Pest Control:** Integrate artificial intelligence technology to improve pest control efficiency and accuracy. - **Eco-friendly Pest Control:** Develop pest control methods that use sustainable and non-toxic materials to reduce environmental impact. ### Where This Applies - **Furniture Manufacturing:** Incorporate pest control technology into furniture pieces to provide a unique selling point. - **Pest Control Services:** Invest in advanced pest control technology to stay competitive and attract new customers. - **Sustainable Technology:** Develop innovative pest control methods that have minimal environmental impact. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Functional Furniture Cat Houses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/donarturo-cuba-cat-house.md) - [Crawling Dynamic Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carpentopod.md) - [Cat Bed-Equipped Side Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/igloo-side-table.md) - [Computer-Equipped Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-coffee-table.md) - [Cartoon Glove Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/voila-coffee-table.md) - [Curvaceous Animalistic Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bookpet-coffee-table.md) - [Spinning Storage Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diy-spinning-coffee-table.md) - [Artful Coffee Table Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vertushka.md) - [Creature-Like Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/octopus-center-table.md)
