Rating: - Havahart Rabbit Trap
The vendor sent the trap quickly and it arrived in perfect condition. I have allready caught 5 rabbits and one opossum. They were all happy and healthy when I released them in the State forest!!....Don't know what I will do if I happen to get a skunk though???Guess I will just let him go!!! Make sure to buy the trap size for the annimals you are trapping. A rabbit will sometimes not set off the bigger traps meant for raccoons. Try fresh apple slices, the rabbits seem to like them, and so far thank God the skunks don't!!!.....

Rating: - Good choice for squirrels
I had a female squirrel chew through a gable vent and make a nest for herself (and babies) in our attic. This trap is a good choice for squirrels -- rat "snap" traps are too small. The model 1040 trap is a slightly better choice -- it has the same width and height, but is a little longer, making it less likely that the squirrel's "butt" will hold the door open.

Keep the instruction sheet packed with the trap. It describes how to adjust the sensitivity of the pan. Trip it a few times yourself to make sure you are fully familiar with it. If squirrels still manage to steal the bait, try smearing peanut butter on the underside of the pan -- it's harder for the squirrels to steal it that way.

Now, the part you DON'T want to know. You are not doing the squirrel any favors by relocating it. Many states (mine included) specifically ban relocating squirrels and other wild animals. At best you are giving your problem animal to some other homeowner. At worst, squirrels and other small mammals are territorial and will die if transported to unfamiliar territories where the current residents are unlikely to welcome them anyway. Also, all wild animals harbor diseases and parasites (fleas, ticks, bot flies, etc.) -- transport the animal and you spread local infections.

The animal really does have to be humanely destroyed.

Rating: - A little big...
I bought this for Pine squirrels, but it's a little big for this task. The 1025 works a little bit better here. But, like all Havaharts it's a great trap.

The trap has insufficient sensitivity to catch small rabbits. It's a wonderful feeder though.

Rating: - Havahart 1030 trap, so easy to use.
This small trap is just the ticket for snaring pesky skunks and polecats. It is easy to bait, set and the trap mechanism is mechanically fool-proof. The trap is very light and easy to handle. I very highly recommend this trap for those not intending a destructive trap.
