scott baltz of minnesota makes some great ones but may have sold his company to another member on here. anyone know?
You are correct Mousie, I started AES Traps and Tools after LT was here in Minnesota with me in 2010... LT gave me rights to use "His" trigger that He developed years ago.
I started with a 4x4x18" trap and developed 9 different Trap Models and Several other configurations within those models. Also Developed the AES HD Trap separator tool with a Heavy Handle and double bar tine support.
These Products Sold Very well and Many ADC Men/women from this site and dozens others Use and Own AES products Now.
Because of Undiagnosed health problems at the time I sold AES Traps and Tools to Lundy and He changed the Name to
http://www.aestraps.com/ ... Dave, His Son and Wife are continuing on with Quality Traps etc... and Have Developed many of their Own Ideas and features into this Trap and Tool line.
Incidentally I used the "nose bump" or Jump bar on a double door trap for Squirrels...it actually was in the trap to make the Animal slow down slightly , pause and change the pattern of its step to make the animal do what I wanted. That "restrictor" I believe in that particular trap was on the floor and also the side...it narrowed the area around the pan just for a moment... Mostly for the speedy Grey's...
