micky 3,325 Posted May 29, 2022 Report Share Posted May 29, 2022 Don't know what they cost but a neater and cheaper version would be a Body Grip in a Cubby Quote Link to post

WCS� Tube Trap� - Standard WWW.WILDLIFECONTROLSUPPLIES.COM Check out the deal on WCS� Tube Trap� - Standard at Wildlife Control Supplies Glenn Waters actually makes something similar which looks a lot better, he should do a trapping book to complement his snaring ones.

comanche 3,038 Posted May 29, 2022 Report Share Posted May 29, 2022 (edited) The body grip in a tunnel and the Quell are completely different traps. They can't be considered versions of the same thing. I've a little unbranded ,probably Oriental , copy of Mackem's Quell. It is a very simple one piece unit . It would be easy to make DIY versions in various sizes. It's basically the same principle as most box and cage traps but with a very strong spring and a falling bar instead of a door.

I am on the edge of Ottawa. 2 Quote Link to post
