I can see that this works by the weight of the squirrel, not so easily set off as most bought traps. The fact that he makes multiple trips inside is good, it gets his trust before he's trapped. Very good design, maybe some company will buy your design, hope you patented it.

I built it. The first couple of times I baited the trap, when I returned the bait was gone and the door was still open. Maybe we've got smaller squirrels. I hit upon fine tuning the balance point. I put a 3" screw in the back of the trap and started hanging large washers on it until a light touch would tip the trap. Bingo!

Perfect! Yes, sometimes to get it to balance just right you can do what you did. Good job!

I don't think I'd ever need to capture one. But your inventiveness is what tickles me every single time! ☺️ You def leave all the guesswork out. You think of all the details and make it easy for anyone to follow!

Thank you for this excellent video with clear instructions. I have made a lot of money repairing squirrel damage on houses. Too bad you let that squirrel go free. If cooked right, squirrels are good tasting. However, judging from the damage a squirrel can do, some squirrels will bust out of this trap.

Use plexiglass for the rear plug on the metal tube. Being able to see thru the tube will get the squirrel to enter further and eliminate the chance that the squirrel is spooked before he gets to the bait past the pivot point. Trust me, it’ll make a big difference. (Wildlife trapper/relocator)

Looks like the critter has bent some of the wires in the mesh by the time you arrived. I think a more substantial screen material is warranted. Also I don't quite understand why the triangles have different sized holes in them. How does that protect the trapped squirrel?
@chrisnotap
@chrisnotap Год назад
Yes he did bend it but it is very strong! The smaller hole keeps the edge of the metal more covered so he can't get to it and injure it.

Great video, well executed and really fun cinematography. However, I prefer my grey squirrel traps to have a more mortal nature to them. If you want a humane death trap I recommend the A18 grey squirrel trap. it kills instantly and leaves the remains for scavengers without any poison or lead to be ingested. powered by CO2 cartridges it is self resetting and has enough charge for 18 triggerings.

She actually caught one a few weeks ago! But now it's getting too cold, so I'd like to help her build one that she doesn't have to camp. This looks like a great design! Do you have a rough estimate on the cost of the supplies?
