This trap is designed specifically to minimize stress on the animal and thereby prevent it from spraying. Durable and easy to set, the Spray-Proof Skunk Trap features an innovative design
One of the favored features of the trap is its unconventional appearance – it does not look like traditional traps. The trap if constructed of a heavy composite tube housing with a galvanized steel door and trap mechanism. Sturdy materials and quality craftsmanship ensure long-lasting dependable service, according to WCS.
The trap body consists of a PVC cylinder six inches in diameter and 23 inches long. The trap door opens outward for an overall length of 30 inches when the trap is set. A long six-inch trip pan makes baiting easy and helps to ensure a catch. Setting the trap is quick and easy. Users simply lift the locking-bar to the top of its track and open the door. A knob on the end of the trip-rod slides easily into place through an aperture in the door. When the trap is tripped the door falls shut and the lock-rod slides down its track, instantly barricading the animal inside. Once trapped the animal is completely enclosed. Captured skunks can become agitated easily, but when enclosed in a dark, cave-like container they are soothed into a sense of security. A skunk might spray in a cage trap upon being approached, but a skunk in the Spray-Proof Skunk Trap feels safe and is unlikely to spray. A handle on top makes transportation easy and the compact size of the trap fits nicely into a standard euthanasia chamber, if relocation is not an option. The new Spray-Proof Skunk Trap is available from WCS online at www.wildlifecontrolsupplies.com, or by calling toll-free 877/684-7262.
