Model 0745 - Havahart Humane Live Animal Cage Trap.
Havahart Live Animal Cage Trap Model 0745
Humane Cage Trap for Chipmunks, Squirrels, Weasels, Voles and Rats
The Havahart 1-Door Live Animal Trap is Havahart’s extra-small trap and designed to capture small-sized critters such as chipmunks, squirrels, weasels and rats. Designed and field-tested by trapping professionals, it uses an ultra-sensitive trip-plate to capture these animals and a close-set wire mesh to contain them. Once the animal trips the trigger, the gravity-action door drops behind them, safely holding the critter until you can humanely release it.
- Ideal for humanely catching squirrels, chipmunks, rats, weasels, voles and similar-size nuisance animals
- One gravity-action door with sensitive trigger to ensure quick, secure trapping
- Smoothed internal edges protect and prevent injuries to animals
- Designed for higher catch rate and fewer escapes
- Built to last - resists rust and corrosion
- Comes fully assembled and ready to use
- Dimensions: 16 in x 6 in x 6.375 in
Target Animals for the 0745 Havahart Humane Live Animal Cage Trap
|
|
|
|
|
|---|---|---|---|
ChipmunksUse peanut butter to 'glue' sunflower seeds, corn or raisins to the trigger plate of your chipmunk trap, then place it near the chipmunk burrow, under bushes they hide in or under a shed or similar structure. |
RatsTry a variety of food in your trap, including bacon, peanut butter or nuts. Place the rat trap near walls, wires or other pathways you believe the rats use. If you see rat droppings or gnaw marks, you’ve found the right spot. |
SquirrelsThe baits squirrels love match most other small animals – peanut butter, nuts, apple slices and grains. Place the trap where squirrels are active, but away from other food sources, such as a bird feeder. |
VolesThese mouse-like animals have a small range, so place your trap within that territory. Bait with apple slices, nuts, sunflower seeds or gum drops. You can 'glue' those items in place with peanut butter. |

Step-by-Step Trapping Guide
|
|
|
|
|---|---|---|
Step 1: BaitingOften times, it’s easier to bait the trap before setting it and placing it. For most animals, you can apply peanut butter to the trigger plate and add some supplementary item to it as further incentive to the target animal. |
Step 2: PlacementYour trap should be placed where there’s evidence of the pest animal’s activity. In particular, try to place it near its nest and in any areas where it might normally find food. Remove all other food sources, if possible. |
Step 3: ReleaseAfter the capture, try to make the animal as comfortable as possible. Cover the trap with a towel, and release the animal at least 2 miles away. Be sure to check your local catch-and-release laws before trapping. |

It Works VERY WELL. 2 Chippies in 2 days.
Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2023
I have a 4 living in my yard and I now have 6 holes within a 5ft radius and they’re destroying my lawn. I got this trap on 5/16/2023 and I put it out the day it arrived, caught a chipmunk within 1 hour. Next day another (see included pic). I put a VERY wide body of water between them and my yard! HAHAHA! I usually make my own traps, but didn’t have time to make a new one so I bought this. I can tell you it works very well. Pro tip, USE PUMPKIN SEEDS in the shell and put them at the furthest edge of the bait tray away from the entrance with a little pile of about 8 at the closed end of the cage where they can’t reach them from the sides. This forces them to put all their weight on the bait tray and jump/climb over the tray to get to the remaining pile of pumpkin seeds. Make sure you leave a little trail of about 5 into the entrance. Otherwise, they’ll sit and reach for the bait picking it up off the center of the bait tray and not trip it. I have zero regrets buying this trap. Anyone who says it doesn’t work or who can’t set it is lacking skill/knowledge. This trap is as easy as it gets aside from a snare.

The size is good for big rats, always bigger in your mind than they really are. The trigger mechanism is surprisingly simple and effective for big and small rodents. There are no weak links like springs; all parts are metal construction except for a bendable clip to lock the trap door.
I put the device along the outside wall of the house, using a small spoonful of peanut butter in a tiny plastic cup as a bait. The first night I got a small mouse. The second day I rested, figuring out what to do with it. The 3rd night I got a big rat, the one I wanted to catch. That's an impressive 100% success rate. There were no false triggers. I am glad that I got this trap with a 6 to 7 inches opening. I'm sure the small ones with 1.5 to 2 inches openings will be too small for the rat.
It had been decades since the previous owner got rid of all the rodents quietly before we moved in. Maybe the climate has changed or there is something to do with the drought orders; they came back. I'm sure the house perimeter is secure because if there were any tiny breaches, the ant would have gotten in and overwhelmed us. Ants are always helpful because they always leave a long trail to tell you how they got in. The rodents must have come in from the roof. Indeed, I had one who fell from the central heating air intake duct, knocked off the screen that I duct taped onto the duct opening, died inside the central heating "room" and turned into a flat piece of dried mummy.
Along with poison and spring traps, I ordered this one because we have frequent visitors in the yard, mostly hares that I don't want to harm. After I caught the first mouse on the first deployment, I began researching what to do with it. I am surprised that the poisons are not an instant kill so there's no point to feed to the mouse I already caught. A slow painful death is not what I wanted in return for possibly dealing with their corpse rotting deep inside my loft. And if they die outside they are threats to the wildlife; the poison I got were classified as 2nd generation.
When I was a kid I saw a guy carrying a trap like this trying to drown his catch in a barrel of water by the curb. He thought it would be quick and easy but the rat refused to die. It became a tug of war; bystanders gathered to give him suggestions to end his predicament. Probably he wouldn't risk leaving his trap in the water and lost it. He also wouldn't want to take everything to where he came from when the rat was still alive. The scene didn't cause trauma inside me but I never forget about it.
For the same reason, I won't use the spring loaded death traps because I don't want to deal with the aftermath. To my surprise, I don't even know how these traps work before I ordered 6 of them. I never see how they catch rodents and I want to stay that way.
From my research, I can deal with prisoner number one in many ways. But the most humane way to ME is likely the CO2 gas chamber. This is close to my initial thoughts of throwing it a piece of poison and dropping it into the trash bin seconds after. At the end, I decided not to deal with death after all.
Now the research starts to be entertaining here and elsewhere. Some feel sorry for not keeping the rodents well fed before they have time to release them. A person went political, accusing liberals of not solving the problem and dumping the problem to other communities! A person claimed that she tried increasing distances and found that 5 miles is the distance that rodents do not come back to her house. I wonder if she food stained the rodents or she attached GPS tracking devices to them. Some research shows that the rodents will likely die if they are relocated even for 100 yards. Maybe that's the alternative fact you will need if you are caught releasing rodents near someone else properties.
After driving a few hours in the most remote part of the county, I picked a site that is about an 8 miles from my home. There are no homes along the road for miles on both directions. There are quiet roadside stops that I can carry out the release discreetly without being seen as creepy or illegal dumping. The scenery is good; I can always claim that is what I stop for.
Since the car trunk is where I put food after a grocery trip, I first put the trap into a cardboard box. Then I put the cardboard box into a large trash bag and tied it up securely. I do the same after the release. When I return home I rinse the trap with a high-pressure hose and throw away everything else in the collection bin. And since cardboard box of the right size is not easy to come by, I brought a plastic tote for prisoner number two. I preferred an air-tight tote but couldn't find the right size. I improved the tote that I got with a left-over weather seal just in case.
I didn't think that there is anything worth thinking about the release but I was wrong. In some youtube videos, you can see that mice are so fast that they can detect the trigger, feel that something is wrong, rush out of the trap like flying before the trap door is closed. In the middle of a gravel pavement, prisoner number one flew out of the trap, immediately made a u-turn passed me, and rushed toward the shade under the car. I do not know of its fate but if it got into the underside of the car, it could not have survived the return trip with 8 miles of winding country road at a speed limit of 65 mph. I released prisoner number two under the shade, with the sun and the car behind us. In contrast to number one, I had to bang the cage with the trap door to encourage this big guy to get out.
