      To add, maybe an orange tip on the stick to indicate a trigger trip. I'm un Wisconsin, and we fish through the ice with "tip-up" rigs. They have a little orange flag on the tip when a fish tugs on the string. Also, a simple lock will keep the door closed. Screen door kind is smaller.

    Good evening from Belgium,
    making a rat trap following your tutorial, 2 rats were caught less than 2 hours after placing it near my henhouse.
    I just have to rework the trigger but already efficient. I also have replaced the elastics with an ajustable spring to prevent other rats from gnawing. I have a picture of it but I can't share it here
    Thanks for your video

    You could put small magnets on the trap and corresponding screw heads on the door, when it shuts it’ll be solid, this will be extra to stop it pushing it’s way out.

    come to Arizona , Ive caught 100 rats and mice in the last two months here in the desert , now the traps are left alone , using old style victor traps and i guess they are new , Koro Rodent trap ..... Koro needs to do some tweeking with the design but damn its a thumb breaker with powerful springs , the kill bar sometimes just hits them in the head and kills them without really trapping it .... check it out if you get the chance , maybe you could improve it with your skills

    That is a rabbit trap and there is no need to use rubber bands the door can be made to slide down by gravity. I and my cousins up in Arkansas made this type of trap for rabbits when we were kids we learned to make them from our fathers that makes them a 100 years old and our fathers learned them from our grand fathers that makes them some were around 200 years old.

    should use springs rather than elastic bands they can push out & other rats can chew through them & allow for escape [8: 46 check... I should have watched whole video 1st!] nice simple trap
    Also you can just set the thing in a tub of water & drown the rat

  • @JoeSyxpack
    @JoeSyxpack 2 года назад

    Needs some sort of latch to keep it closed. The rats around here have already proven they can force their way out of a Haveahart trap, those rubber bands wouldn't pose a problem for them. Although that's a simple enough modification.

  • @Yeeyeet_gaming
    @Yeeyeet_gaming 6 месяцев назад

    Another way, without using springs nor rubber bands is use magnets! Strong magnets on the swinging door and the box itself, so when it closes... it stays closed. Clearly a rat cant open a magnetized door right?

    Update: on 8-11-20, I caught two more in the trap. I used bread with peanut butter on it and squeeze the bread around the trigger. He too got released about 4 miles from my home in a nature park
