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.

I had to add some smaller mesh to the sides as the squirrel was able to reach through the cage and grab the bait. Once the mesh was on the sides, they were forced to enter the cage to get the bait.

Q:What size for raccoons?6/30/21A:Racoons can get pretty big so I would say a large would be best. I use a medium for squirrels.

Q:Which trap is best for grey squirrels?3/3/21A:I have the 7" x 17" trap, and it is very effective at catching gray squirrels. I haven't used any other size trap, so I can't say whether they would work as well or not.

Q:How do I release animals without getting bitten?1/7/21A:I bought and use animal-handling gloves (like vets use): they are long (almost to the forearm). I then put the trap in the back of my SUV, drive to a county park miles away. To release the squirrel (our problem), I position the trap so the opening faces outward. Wearing the gloves, I slowly open the trap door, and they tend to virtually fly out into the woods.
