Tools Needed
Tools are not needed to set a Solutions Live Trap. However, a food attractant to lure the animal in the trap is needed.
How to Use
- Step 1: Choose the right size trap for type of animal that needs to be removed.
- Step 2: Place the trap in your desired area. Make sure it is on a flat surface. You may need to put a weight on top of the trap in case the pest animal tries to knock the cage over.
- Step 3: Bait and set the trap. Be sure the bait is near the back of the trap to ensure that the animal will need to step on the trigger plate in order to reach the food. Set the trap by pushing on the door lock and lifting the door plate. Keep the door plate lifted while pulling the trigger arm forward to set it. You will know it is set when the trigger arm's hook catches the door.
- Step 4: Check the trap once in the morning and once in the evening. Any non-target animals should be released immediately. Once you have captured your desired animal, check your local authorities to make sure you are correctly relocating the animal. Place a towel over the cage to avoid frightening the animal.

Q:Is the small trap good for gophers? I just got a squirrel in a gopher trap and now I feel like a killer! Help please7/29/22A:Gophers spend most of their time underground in their self-created tunnel systems, these fast-moving rodents can be difficult to control or capture. A humane trap can be used, but for the previous reasons will prove to be ineffective without additional underground baiting. We recommend following the tips and products suggested throughout our Gopher control DIY guide. https://www.solutionsstores.com/gopher-control

Q:What is the right size trap for raccoons? I have a family of five living in my garage, Momma and 4 kids. Can I catch more than one at a time?10/27/21A:I purchased the large live trap for a fox problem w had and it worked well to trap both the male and female fox. I would use the large trap size for raccoons as well. These traps appear to be made by Havahart for Solutions and the large trap is the same as the extra large Havahart live trap.

Q:How do you set this trap?8/4/21A:Just be sure the trip plate is all the way up when you set the hook in the door. I had to bend the hook end a bit to get it to get it where it needed to be to release when the plate is all the way up. Push the double bar in and raise the door with the handle, hold it up while gripping the trip wire on the outside of the side of the trap, make sure the hook on end of trip wire catches the latch point on the door.
