Got my pest!!,
I have been plagued with pesky armadillos for the last several years in my Florida yard. After getting advice from several people, I have tried everything under the sun to get rid of these guys as my lawn has large dead spots where the root systems have been destroyed, not to mention the uneven ground that my kids play on due to the multiple holes that are dug. I tried mothballs, filling their holes with dirt and water, covering their holes, even tainted food. Nothing worked. I finally broke down and bought this Havahart trap 1 month ago. At first, I caught several animals except for an armadillo (opossums, racoons mainly) I tried using several different types of bait until I finally got my armadillo this past Monday. The bait—a rotten Mango. Did the trick!! I relocated this critter to an uninhabited preservation area several miles away where he can go about his business as he pleases. The handle on this trap made it easy to transport the animal without difficulty. I am a satisfied customer.

|Raccoons can get out,
The first issue is how to outsmart the raccoon. I made a hook of coathanger wire and suspended it from the top back part of the trap. Using marshmallows for bait with one on the “hook,” the raccoon is obliged to trigger the trap. With bait just on the floor of the trap the raccoon will recover the bait and avoid the pressure plate/trigger. Further, when the raccoon senses the trap door closing, it backs out of the trap before the door closes and latches. To solve this problem, I incline the trap back end down so the raccoon must back out uphill. Now the raccon is caught. Leave him alone, unsupervised overnight however,and he will escape. The door hinge is a pin the the raccoon disengages when he overturns the trap in his struggles. When one end of the hinge pin disengages, it allows the raccoon to force open the door. An earlier version of this trap had a door hinge not subject to coming loose when the raccoon struggled. Thus, either immediately move the raccoon to some other desired location for release, inconvenient in the middle of the night, or secure the trap in some manner so that the raccoon cannot move the trap around or turn it on its side as the raccoon struggles. Unless one takes these precautions, the trap is not suitable for taking raccoons.

|Do not buy this trap if you have big racoons and a lot of them to eliminate,
I have just replaced this trap with the $39.00 Havahart racoon trap. Do not buy this $61 trap because the engineering is flawed. If you are catching big racoons (they all are big and heavy), the racoon is strong enough to arch his back and pop the top of the trap out of wack so that the trap becomes useless. There is no way to fix it. The aluminum top is attached to the frame of the trap by four tiny little tabs that are about 1/16th of an inch. The big racoon just has to arch his back and wiggle enough and these tabs get released. Then once the top of the trap is loose, the trap no longer springs correctly. Don’t buy this trap. Also, when you carry the trap by the handle with a big racoon inside, the top is vulnerable to pulling apart the little 1/16th of an inch tabs holding it on.
