Sarah Dery has designed a hygienic way of [catching mice](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thanos-home), by creating [mousetraps shaped like coffins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/popcorn-coffin). Instead of having to pick up the rodent by its tail, the Moustrap allows you to [pick up the coffin](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-casket-cooler) itself and bury the miniature casket in your garden. The Mousetrap is an ingenious way to be respectful and clean! ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.3/10 - Popularity: 5% | Activity: 25% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Hygienic Mousetraps:** Opportunity to innovate and create more hygienic and respectful solutions for trapping and disposing of rodents. - **Creative Pest Control:** Opportunity to design unique and inventive products that revolutionize the pest control industry. - **Eco-friendly Trapping:** Opportunity to develop environmentally friendly mousetraps that minimize harm to rodents and ecosystems. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Pest Control:** Opportunity for companies in the pest control industry to offer innovative and hygienic mousetraps to customers. - **Funeral Services:** Opportunity for funeral service providers to expand their offerings by providing burial services for small animals. - **Gardening:** Opportunity for the gardening industry to offer eco-friendly and hygienic solutions for disposing of pests in gardens. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Humorous Macabre Office Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coffin-office-chair.md) - [Health-Conscious Mouse Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ergo-ergonomic-mouse-concept.md) - [Steampunk Multifunctional Computer Mouse](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/d-mouse.md) - [Biodegradable Burial Caskets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loop-biotech.md) - [Folded Mouse Design Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nak-studio-1.md) - [Rodent-Preventative Trash Bins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/group-project.md) - [Origami-Inspired Mouse Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/myair0-orimouse.md) - [Marine-Inspired Mouse Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arjun-vallabheshwar.md) - [Pine Cone-Inspired Mouses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/treemouse.md)
