Havahart Easy Set Animal Trap

This model is specifically sized for small nuisance animals like chipmunks, rats, weasels, or similar-sized pests. Given its 17-inch length, it is not suitable for larger animals like raccoons or groundhogs.

The Easy Set lever allows you to arm the trap using only one hand. You simply pull the lever back until it locks, which sets the trigger plate and door simultaneously, making it much faster and safer to operate than traditional two-handed traps.

Yes, the trap is designed for humane, live capture. It features smooth, rolled edges to prevent injury to the animal, and the galvanized steel construction is durable enough to keep the animal contained securely without harming it.

Yes, the trap includes an adjustable sensitivity setting. This is particularly useful if you are trying to catch lighter, smaller pests that might not trigger a standard-sensitivity plate, or if you want to avoid catching non-target animals.

It is water-resistant and built from galvanized steel, so it is designed to withstand outdoor conditions. However, for the longest lifespan, it is best to place it in a sheltered area or check it frequently to ensure the mechanism remains free of debris or rust.

The trap features an enlarged hand guard specifically designed to protect your hand from the animal while you are carrying the unit. Always hold the trap by the handle, keeping the animal away from your body during transport.
