Works great when you understand your target...

I ordered this trap after squirrels did several thousand dollars worth of damage to equipment at our facility. The squirrels quickly figured out standard traps and easily bypassed triggers. They have yet to figure out this system. I have trapped and relocated three squirrels so far. I would like to share some of my learnings.

First and foremost, unless you have a lot of squirrels that are used to being around each other and sharing feeding sites, do not expect to catch more than one squirrel at a time. Food was relatively scarce and our squirrels were extremely territorial. When a squirrel was trapped, it would run around inside trap scaring others away.

Find out what your squirrels like to eat. Set up several feeding stations out of eyesight from each other. Try to limit other sources of food. If you have a lot of nut trees producing in the area, that may limit your success initially. Our squirrels ignored most food offerings including peanuts. We hit upon pecans...what can I say, they are southern squirrels...

I set up my feeding/trapping sites several days in advanced. Once they got used to being fed, I would set and bait the trap. I usually had a squirrel in the trap within an hour or two. Because of skunks and opossums also liking the bait, I never left the trap out overnight. Putting the trap out in the morning and taking it back in in the evening did not seem to bother the squirrels. After catching a squirrel at one location, I would move the trap to another site.

After getting a squirrel in the trap, make sure you close and secure the entrances. Watch your fingers and I would suggest wearing heavy leather gloves while handling the trapped squirrel and cage. They will be extremely upset and are prone to biting. I always cover the cage with a box or blanket. This helps to calm the animal. If you are not going to relocate the squirrel, the dispatch it as quickly and humanely as possible. If you are going to relocate the squirrel, move it at least five miles from where it was captured. Make sure you release it away from areas where they will not damage other people's property and equipment. Also, make sure that there is plenty of naturally occurring food for them.

Good luck!

Six Squirrels in 2 hours! Think I'll Keep It!!!

July 7, 2017

Verified Purchase

Absolutely great! Toss a bit of dog food into the center, open the side gates and secure, turn on the open sign, and sit back and wait a bit.

After the heavy rains in Northern California this last winter, we have been inundated with these critters like we haven't seen in 30 years! We were left with no choice, so we ordered up the Squirrelinator! Well, simply put, it works! The attached image is after 2 hours, and I'm sure given a few more days, we'll have the place free and clear of squirrels.

UPDATE #12 - 6 June 2017 - I've just trapped squirrel no. 218.

UPDATE #11 - 13 March 2017 - Since first buying this trap, I just crossed the 200 mark with #201 today. People ask how I've caught so many squirrels, and I tell them Rugged Ranch Squirrelinator.

UPDATE #10 - 16 Aug 2016 - They're back! I went several weeks with no squirrels, I think because of heavy rain we had nearly daily. Then yesterday I caught 3. Total count this year is 42.

UPDATE #9 - 4 June 2016 - As of this morning, I've caught 32 squirrels. A coyote was able to partially pull 2 of them through the wire mesh because they were smaller than usual, leaving the heads inside the cages and the eviscerated bodies outside. I chain each cage to a tree and pin them to the ground with wire. Something (deer or coyotes) is moving the cages at night to eat the bait (I live next to the woods) I'm looking for a better way to anchor them.

UPDATE #8 - 12 Apr 2016 - As of yesterday, I've caught 21 squirrels with 3 Squirrelinators in my backyard. I've had two occasions where 2 squirrels have gone into the same cage. They don't play well together. I put the bait out early in the morning right after the sun's up, and the little critters arrive within an hour. My new next door neighbors were delighted because the squirrels chewed into the attic of their former house resulting in expensive damage. It's nice to have a cheering section.

UPDATE #7 - 8 Mar 2016 - We went about 2 years without squirrels after the big haul of 149. The squirrels are back, so I put out the cages 3 days ago. We've already caught 7. TIP: Once you see a squirrel in the trap, close and latch the doors that are attached to the cage. That should help any smart bushy tail from learning how to escape.

UPDATE #6 - 21 Nov 2013 - 149 squirrels - I live on a lake, and in July the geese began to eat all the bait in the traps. I took the traps up and the geese continued to come into my yard. They left a mess, but they kept the squirrels at bay. The geese have dwindled, and 3 days ago the squirrels returned. I'm putting the traps back down tomorrow.

UPDATE #5 - 3 July 2013 - 138 squirrels

UPDATE #4 - 24 May 2013 - 126 squirrels

UPDATE #3 - 3 May 2013 -114 squirrels and 1 possum (they love deer corn, sunflower seeds, and peanut butter)

UPDATE #2 (23 Mar 2013): It's been 3 weeks since my first update. We're now at 90 squirrels and more are checking out my traps. For bait I've been using peanut butter, which I spoon out onto wax paper and put in the freezer, and a nut and seed mix I get at the grocery store designed to draw birds and squirrels. The frozen chunks of peanut butter can be dropped right into the traps without opening the top hatch.
I've noticed that other squirrels in my yard take no notice of squirrels that have entered the Squirrelinator, and some have even joined them in the same trap.
THANK YOU RUGGED RANCH!

UPDATE #1: Since I purchased these traps a year ago, I have now caught 81 squirrels. More have come to my yard, but they aren't yet aware of the power of the Squirrelinator. I plan to add more notches to my belt in the next couple of weeks, and for as long as necessary. The ravens and hawks have noticed the activity and have joined our efforts in disposing of the no-longer cute or sweet fuzzy tailed nightmares.

ORIGINAL REVIEW: I hired a professional pest control company to trap the squirrels that were eating their way into my house and that had chewed the wiring in my car three times. In 2 months they caught 3 squirrels. I bought one of these Squirrelinator traps at my local hardware store, and using Deer Corn as bait, starting catching squirrels right away. I ordered two more of these traps from Amazon for a price that was 10% less than the one I bought locally, and have now caught 21 squirrels in one month. The professional traps had a snap door on them, and somehow the squirrels figured out how to get the food without tripping the door. The 2 doors on the Squirrelinator have confounded these bushy tailed pests and they can't find a way out. The cage blends into the background and is easy to bait and open to retrieve or release the squirrels. These cages cost less than the initial fee the professional charged, and they really work!
