Traps that “Catch, Hold and Hold-Up,” "They just work!"

Traps Keep Working

One of the ADC guys I spoke with the other day that uses our 9×11 heavy duty model with 12 gage 1/2x 1 wire, told me some neat stuff.  A number of clients want him to leave a trap behind after the job is complete, “just in case.”  He often obliges them.  In the coming weeks and months he receives intermittent phone calls with catches being made, for which he charges of course.  Sometimes the traps are left for many weeks, but the best part, the traps keep on working as if they were set the day before, making catches with consistency day after day.  He told me that he got a call recently about a catch made in a trap that had been left since last November!  Yes, it does tie up a bunch of traps, but the traps are about $100 with shipping to his place, which means for that small investment he keeps the client happy and returns periodically to retrieve an animal, which more than pays what the interest would be on one hundred bucks for a year, about nothing.

When using baitless positive sets, trails or crawl unders, maintenance is not required.   Though I periodically just spray paint a bare contact point, if you put a little grease on the trigger contact and end bushings, there is nothing that needs attention.  A little surface rust won’t interfere with the trap function.
