“How To” Simple DIY Barrel Live Trap! 

Plot twist: These are the same critters someone 10km away caught and released near your place.

Hope you are well Wayne, miss your ingenuity buddy.

You always have the right lure to catch-and-release your fans, and keep us hangin' around for more. Best to you and yours, and here's to a good greenhouse crop!

Wooden Tool Man - WE MISS YOU!!!!! I miss your great videos and cool projects. Please consider coming back to RU-vid!

YES! Finally! A great idea! And I'm sure I have all the parts on hand. Thanks!

Where are you located? Sounds like Nova Scotia

Great ideas! You sound just like Frosty the snowman.

F*ckin awesome man!

Going to build this. Get that big guy with a 4" footprint!

Great racoon trap. Ingenious

That raccoon was "detailed"

Miss you dude! Hope you are ok!

Good and glad to see you posting again.

Nice trap.

I decided to make my trap with a 55 gallon oil drum. This simple design works perfectly. Thank you very much for posting this. Cheers. Ben

1 or 2 handles would work for lifting. Nice design. A $100 trap for about $10. Thanks

Thanks for this. I used your idea to create my own from things laying around the property. Put a can of dog food inside it and a little after dark I saw the door close from my security cameras. Has a racoon in it.

You have a good head on your shoulders, very well done and thought through trap. I applaud you!!

Damn. Your clever. I have a live trap but the raccoon won't go in it. He steals the bait through the wire cage.

Just wondering if a skunk would spray if caught in this trap?

Thanks for this video. I just built one with your ideas. Will soon find out if it works.

Thanks for sharing this on GPF! I like that you catch and release. I watched a trapper set up squirrel traps on a neighbor’s attic. I don’t know if this is true for all critters (or even for squirrels), but he recommend releasing them not only far away, but put a body of water between their origin and release points. Apparently they are less likely to return if they have to cross water....? IDK.

Came acros ur video im building 3 of them now thanks

Really nice trap. Great job .is everything still the same or have things changed

Thank you sir I have now removed my pest problems .

Brilliant! Thank you for sharing.

Excuse my ignorance, but why are you trapping these raccoons & just letting them go? What’s the point? Thanks from Manchester, U.K.

Looking forward to your next video, as always

clever!

Good thinking on this. Ya, ya have to take them out very far and good to have a major obstruction between like a big highway or town.
