Rattlesnake Trapping

posted this on another forum thought it might help some of you guys around deer camp or your house









traps are made of 1/2 inch haile screen with a hinged door that they push through

Thanks for posting!

That's pretty sweet!

put a heater rock in there! bet that would be better than bait.

It would work great except for the fact that I'm not picking that trap up with that thing still breathing!

for sure, im working on getting a light over it to heat it up inside

Do you have any info on where to get one?

What is the bait?

You can make one out of pvc also.

live rat.

no info on where to get one , i made several myself. real easy to do

there is no bait in these particular traps, they are placed along a wall where they crawl. i feel like they want to get in the cover i have over it because its dark i have another trap that has a compartment that has a live rat in it, but haven't gotten back to check it yet

I'd probably catch everything else except a rattlesnake if I tried this

Nice design....

s c r e w THAT! Kill it with fire

How do you handle it with death inside?

Excellent idea. I will be putting these at the lease. Would baiting it for mice work? We have a ton of mice. Maybe if a live mouse finds his way in then a snake would be right behind it?

I've never seen a screen one but have seen several people catch them in buckets or pipe in the same fashion.

Tie some braided fishing line to it so that you can drag it away from the house before you put the dynamite on it.

May want to put a brick in it so when you toss it in the lake it will sink.

Make it yourself you need hail screen, rabbit cage clip pliers and clips. http://www.amazon.com/Little-Giant-Outdoor-Living-466154/dp/B000FK03HK

Check your local feed stores, they probably have the supplies and it will cheaper.

Oh heck, I'm going to try to catch me a snake noW! Thanks for posting that, it's a good idea!

Great idea.
