I looked at several videos online to find an efficient and easy way to make a squirrel trap (No injuries to the animal). This is the best trigger method I've found. Thanks for posting.
Thank you for the information. I've had trouble with small animals not being heavy enough to trip the trigger plate. I'm going to make a new trap and try your method.
@kingitis2u There is a trigger plate inside the trap. The trigger plate in the trap is attached to the trigger plate on the mouse trap above the squirrel trap. When the plate inside of the trap is touched, it triggers the mouse trap which pulls a string attaches to a nail holding the door up. When the nail comes out from under the door, the door falls.
mm its nice to see someone who actually knows what slow motion is..most "slo mo" videos are slideshows

@kingitis2u If you look at my squirrel trap 2 video, you will see that I had the same problem. With this new design, I can catch birds!
