What Customers Are Saying

The trap is effective at catching small rodents like squirrels and chipmunks, though some found it too sensitive and difficult to set properly. It has a humane design that allows for safe relocation, but may be too small for larger animals. Users noted the need for patience and trial-and-error to set up the trap correctly.

Expensive garbage

Would Not Recommend

I should have opened the box and looked before I purchased. The entire top of the trap is made of thin, cheap plastic. Squirrels, small possums, chipmunks and rats can easily chew out once trapped. Total waste of money and a terrible design!

Caught 3 Squirrels in less than 2 days

Would Recommend

We had a squirrel decide that our minivan engine compartment was the ideal spot for a nest. After $600 in wiring damage we tried all types of repellent to keep them out, to no avail. I picked this up and ended up catching 3 squirrels in less than two days. (They all were humanely relocated to a farm lane with trees away from other homes.) The trap is very sensitive and tripped by the wind twice. But I never came out to our bait warren without a guest. I would recommend apples with peanut butt...

As promised

Would Recommend

I've already caught two squirrels. The trap works well, but the trigger arm is extremely sensitive and sometimes hard to set. Nevertheless I'm happy with it.

Trap Door didn't move w/fat animal eating away!

Would Not Recommend

I placed peanut butter and peanuts exactly as instructed on trap door and fat squirrel went inside and SAT on trap door and had a feast right in front of my eyes. The trap door never moved or triggered anything. This item is a joke. Returned for refund. πŸ‘Ž

Failure to Capture

Would Not Recommend

The trap was easy to set up after seeing a review on YouTube. However, I doubt this particular trap will ever catch squirrels. I got the trap ready, put the food as shown in the video review and left it to catch some squirrels so I could take them and release them in a local park. Boy, was I disappointed. Squirrels were all around it but never went in. If you want to catch mice, Chipmunks or really small squirrels maybe it will work but if you're after the common squirrel I think you're better o...

Sticky door

Would Not Recommend

I've used the old 2 door traps for years with great success. This new model was all Lowe's had and I kind of picked it up by mistake (it was in the same spot where the old ones used to be). Got home, oops, not what I wanted. I pulled it out of the box just to take a look, and, well, ew. I pulled the door open, let go, and the door just stayed up. It was hung up on the cheapo plastic framing. A few bumps on the side and the door finally snapped closed, but your prey isn't going to TRY and close t...

Stay Away From This !!!!!

Would Not Recommend

This "trap" has been tripped a dozen times, but it hasn't trapped a thing! The box said it could trap squirrels. It is way too small for that, the squirrels just push it over and spill the bait and eat it off of the ground. I would NOT recommend this to anyone.
