When I got the traps they did not work very well. The trigger bar that went into a grove was curved up and dug into the grove. This made it hard to trigger. I ground the curved up part until the trigger bar was smooth and now the trap works great. Cut out a space with a 2x4 and now I can set it and now I have a great trap. Initially it was ...

Hard to set and harder to trigger. I think in needs and elephant to trigger. Racoons and possums can't trigger it unless you can get them to jump up and down on it. I think this trap might make it as a paper weight.

Now its great.

Used this to catch the raccoon getting into the garbage. It works fine, although for most people's needs I would recommend using a more humane trapping method. (when I checked the trap I couldn't help but notice he'd chewed his own paw off trying to free himself; I'm no peta nut, but this rubbed me the wrong way a little)

But aside from that it is very cheap and reliable and very easy to use. Just set it and leave. After setting, make sure you check it often.
