## Description

Great prices on your favourite Gardening brands, and free delivery on eligible orders.

Review: It’s wonderfully simple and very effective - This is a very well made trap, it works by the animal tripping a plate that’s connected to a metal rod which, until the trap is triggered, is held in place by the friction between it and a rod holding up the gate. As the plate is moved by the animal, it’s very sensitive, the gate is released and drops down by gravity. It moves quickly as the gate is a good weight. There’s absolutely no way the beast can escape unless you open the gate but, as it drops by gravity, if you turn the trap upside down, the gate would open again by gravity but with the carrying handle, there’s no way that it can accidentally be turned upside down. Most of the other traps use a spring to close the gate and keep it closed; this is simplicity itself because it just uses gravity. So, to conclude, it’s well made with what appear to be good quality materials, is simple to operate and should last for years.
Review: Good sturdy design - Rather pricey, but a good sturdy design that works , good size for squirrels. No instructions, but easy to set once you find out how it operates. Better than the 2 sorts of wire style ones that I borrowed last year, for squirrels that were damaging fruit cage netting. I use pieces of fig roll biscuit ( better than anything that crumbles - which get eaten by ants or mice) with a bit of peanut butter to stop them sliding off the tipping plate, which moves easily. A heavy stone on a bit of board on top, provides shade & stops the squirrel rolling the cage around. Caught first one on day trap arrived.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ DO NOT CUT THE SMALL TAG-TIE ON THE SIDE - IS PART OF THE MECHANISM
*by G***S on 31 May 2020*

I thought that the small plastic tag-tie holding the bar connecting the trap door was part of the packaging. It is NOT, it is part of the mechanism. DO NOT CUT IT when you receive this trap. Manufacturer- I suggest you re-design and replace this tag-tie with a more robust method of attachment. Nevertheless, once set up, this humane trap is easy to use and works excellently.
