Customer Reviews

My brother and I had bought these traps to test on our deer lease. The first night we put them out, we trapped 3 raccoons. We definitely think that they are well worth the money spent and plan to buy more.

I had raccoon in my attic. I tried box traps first. The raccoon had obviously seen them before as he would reach in from the outside and try to get the bait. You could see his the direction of his paw prints. I then covered the trap in aluminum foil and baited it with marshmallows, peanut butter, and salmon. The raccoon went all the way up to the trip plate, ate what he could but left 90% of the food in the trap.
I called a trapping supply store and purchased this. The first night this was set, he was caught. While it may be a little difficult to set, the trigger release mechanism is pretty sensitive and releases easily. I used marshmallows.
Interesting to note the next night I had it set, I went out in the morning to check it, there was a fox inspecting it. He actually pulled it out of the ground with his mouth, but could not get his paw in - thus the dog proof. However, if he would have tripped it while it was in his mouth, I am pretty sure the spring mechanism would have shattered his teeth and probably broken his jaw. These are not to be taken lightly, they are extremely dangerous.
Update on September 29, 2011 - I found these not to be as dog-proof as hoped, as I trapped a Red Fox who apparently has a sweet tooth as my bait was marshmallows. I was able to release him but did detroy the trap in the process. I used bolt cutters to cut thru the spring mechanism to release the tension. I was able to extend the bolt cutters by using two 5 foot long pieces of 1.5 inch PVC pipe. I put the bolt cutter arms into the pipe and then used duct tape to secure the arms to the pipe. It extended the bolt cutters so I was able to stay a safe distance. The fox had an ever so slight limp, as the trap just caught a couple of this toes. The hold has to be tremendous if the fox couldn't pull two toes out.
