 26 squirrels and countingJul 04, 2008
By Richard T. Mallon Jr.
I had squirrels in my attic and got this to get rid of them. I put it near the tree where they would come down from the house. I use bread smeared with peanut butter to stick it to the trip plate to help assure it goes off.
After catching the first dozen (only maybe 3 were from my house) I was afraid they were returning from my drop off spot about 2 miles away [Nice wooded area with a large pond]. I started spray painting spots on their tails to be sure they weren't being territorial and returning. None have come back.
I have now caught 26 and think I have cleared my entire neighborhood of gray squirrels. When I started would catch one per hour, now I leave it for days with nothing and haven't seen any around lately.

Squirrel NightmareJan 24, 2009
By William Jackson
In my experience, once the animal is in your home there is only one way to get it out and that is to catch it. They are extremely persistent. I could not sleep at night and destroyed their nest, but they kept coming back.
These are all the things I tried.
1. Predator urine repellent - did nothing at all.
2. Loud high pitched sounds that only animals can hear - They left when they heard this, but came back and ultimately had no effect.
3. Cut down tree branch to roof - They climbed up the chimney.
4. Found where they were getting in and patched the hole - They created a hole somewhere else.
The worst thing for me was patching the hole, then they got into the walls and started ripping apart the walls. I ended up unpatching my original hole so they could get back into the attic where I could set the trap.
This trap is great. Within 24 hours I caught a squirrel. I used real peanut butter (that has oil in it) on both sides of a cracker. It has a strong scent and it sticks to the pan. I recommend testing the trap several times so you know how it works. It is not obvious just by looking at it. Make sure both locks are flipped up so when the doors fall it locks.

 a tip to increase your catch rate...Nov 06, 2007
By Josh
A little bit of advice for folks that are finding the bait gone but the trap was not tripped. If you are using peanut butter put a small amount on top of the bait pan and then smear some on the underside of the pan. The animal will more than likely try to manipulate the pan to reach the peanut butter on the bottom side and the chance of triggering the trap will be greatly increased. This works for those traps that people find less "sensitive" as well. Good Luck!

 havahart trap 1025Oct 02, 2007
By Yatin Thakore
"bizbook junkie"
The quality of this trap is variable. I ordered two of these together recently. One works great and I have caught three chipmunks in three days. The second one does not work as its trigger is not sensitive enough.
There is a metal rod which when pushed down, opens both doors, and you place the end of that rod under another "trigger" rod that is connected to the bait pan inside the cage. As soon as the animal touches the bait pan and it moves, the first rod is released from under the trigger rod, shutting the doors and trapping the animal inside. For one of the traps, this worked perfectly, and in last 3 days I have caught 3 chipmunks. For the second, somehow, I had to play around with the placement of the first rod so that the trigger will release the rods. Even though I thought it was working, apparently the force needed to move it is a bit more than what the chipmunk is putting on it, because the bait goes, but I have yet to catch any with this trap. I will try a bit more with this trap to see if it will work, else try to get a replacement.
So if you are lucky and get a good one it is certainly a five star product. But if you get stuck with a bad one, then it will be frustrating.

 Do not waste your money. Buy model 1084 instead.Nov 05, 2009
By JMK
I bought this to catch suirrels. I found out, it is too small to catch grey squirrels. I saw one go in, but his tail was sticking out. So when the trap door came down, he backed out and ran away. I caught a chipmunk with it, but no squirrels. Then I bought model 1084. That model is so easy to set up and large enough and sturdy enough to catch all the squirrels in my neighborhood.
