Questions on squirrel traps - 02/21/15 02:41 AM
Working my first squirrel trapping job and I am not seeming to talented at it. A littler frustrated.
With the one way cage traps, if I mount it over the exit, how does it work if the squirrel isnt in the house? I was told they always have at least two holes, so will he go in the other one andout the trap? I have verified that he is using the hole.
Next, I have seen people mount 120 conibears on exits, but I was wondering if I could mount one going inside with a coni box to keep it out of the customers view. Or could I put a WCS tube trap in the attic?
Is there a reason to use the Tube trap vs the coni?
What I have done now is mount a cage trap below the vent on a top window sill. No luck, also tried roof trapping, no luck, and one tied to a tree branch, no luck. Tried a 7x7 comstock that was sprung and bait gone, zero idea how that happend.
