Raccoon - Havahart - Traps - The Home Depot

Question 1

How do I choose the right size trap for the animal I'm trying to catch?

Accepted Answer

Choosing the right size trap depends on your targeted species, including how much space the animal needs to enter without feeling cramped or escaping. For humane and effective trapping, estimate the animal's length and height, placing a slightly larger trap with a wide enough door for a proper fit. We recommend 5 to 10 inches for small rodents, 10 to 18 inches for rats and chipmunks, 18 to 24 inches for squirrels and rabbits, 30 to 36 inches for raccoons, opossums, and feral cats, and 32 to 42 inches for groundhogs and other larger animals.

Question 3

How do I dispose of or relocate the animal?

Accepted Answer

There are best practices for disposal or relocation of trapped animals, covering both living and deceased situations. For living situations, approach the trap slowly and calmly, covering the cage with a blanket to keep the animal calmer. Wear heavy-duty gloves to place the trap in your vehicle, and drive to a release area far from your home, following the legal distance requirements for your area. Open the cage quietly and allow the animal to exit without crowding. For deceased situations, wear protective gloves and dispose of the carcass in a double-sealed heavy-duty bag according to local waste guidelines.
