Animal trap
September 7, 2017
Same as the city animal control trap and basic functions are the same. The trigger mechanism is unfortunately also the same.
ConsThere is too much slop in the trigger linkage. A nylon bushing and shaft would be much more precise. The double eyes formed in the
wire are just to sloppy. Also the trigger itself is too loosely attached to the cage frame. Perhaps a type of ball and socket
styled after an automotive carburetor linkage would tighten the whole mechanism up to good functional standards. Food is a little
difficult to load, or my reach isn't long enough and I need a barbeque spatula to position the bait properly.
