Overview

Built for nuisance-animal control, this trap is intended for skunks and other small critters such as squirrels, feral cats, and opossums. Its 6" diameter, 3/16" thick pipe construction and guillotine-style door are designed for placement beside den openings, making it a practical option for ADC work and use around the farm, yard, garden, or under a shed. The removable back panel adds convenience during setup and handling. It is a specialized trap with a compact form factor, so it suits targeted problem-solving rather than general-purpose trapping.

Considerations & Trade-offs

  • Designed around skunks and other small critters, so it may be more specialized than a general-purpose trap for larger nuisance animals.
  • The 6" diameter, 24" overall size is useful for den-side placement, but it also means the trap is relatively compact and intended for confined setups.
  • The guillotine-style door and removable back panel add setup flexibility, but they also make this a more involved trap to position and service than a simple single-entry design.
  • Built from 3/16" thick pipe and steel components, it is substantial in construction, which may be a trade-off if you want a lighter, easier-to-move trap.
