Designed by Trapping Experts
Higher Catch Rates
The trap's 1-door design allows animals to fully enter before being triggered, resulting in higher catch rates and fewer escape possibilities.
Built to Last
The 12-gauge, one-piece wire mesh is galvanized for maximum resistance to rust and corrosion. A solid door and steel reinforcements add to the durability.
Prevents False Triggers
The finely-tuned tripping mechanism targets heavier animals to eliminate false triggers. The powerful trap door delivers quick, secure captures.
Innovative Safety Features
The solid spring-loaded door ensures the animal remains securely inside until release, while the large handle guard minimizes the chance of contact between you and the animal during transport. Inside the trap, the edges are smooth to prevent injuries to the animal during its time in the trap.
Step-by-Step Trapping Guide
Step 1: Bait the Trap
Choose an appropriate bait for your target animal. Place the bait towards the back of the trap to encourage animals to enter the trap fully. Be careful not to place bait under the trigger plate.
Step 2: Set the Trap
Set the live trap near where you’ve noticed pest animal activity. You can camouflage the trap by placing twigs and leaves on top. You can also leave an unset baited trap for a few days to entice the animal.
Step 3: Check the Trap Regularly
Both hot and cold conditions can be harmful to the trapped animal, and remaining in a live cage trap can cause stress to the animal. Check your traps daily to ensure a quick release back into the wild.
