Specs
The Safeguard Rodent Trap is perfectly sized for mice, voles, chipmunks, flying squirrels, etc. It measures 10"L x 3"W x 3"H and is solidly constructed of galvanized sheet metal. It has a positive locking rear door for easy baiting and animal removal. It has a zero-clearance entry door, meaning the spring-loaded door folds into the trap, and the trigger/pan assembly can be set as sensitively as needed for an effective capture. It has holes for air circulation in the top and sides of the trap. If you're looking for an alternate to the Sherman-type traps you will find these to be an attractive replacement.

this trap is very easy to set, it latches very quickly and well. there was a little problem with a damaged part, but WCS replaced it right away and we caught that little chippy stinker with acorn paste and walnuts.

This trap is a chipmunk magnet. Big enough for munks, yet too small for other critters. It is my second one because we are wearing out the first one!

Purchased two after a loaner from a friend. Simple, no false triggers. Easy to set. 35 chipmunks and 6 mice from home and a vacation home. Relocated across a river. Please tell me they can't swim.

Chipmunks go over it, around it, they move it but they do not go in it and eat the bait! I have had it for a week and have yet to catch a chipmunk. It's nice and shiny though.

I've had a chipmunk problem for several years. I've used the small double door Havahart but was not happy. It false triggered sometimes, chipmunks sometimes got out. A friend loaned me this and 18 chipmunks later, I'm still catching and off to buy two of my own.

Work great! Like the design. But, would like to see them a little less expensive (considering how they are made)

I've had Sherman traps destroyed by chewing on the mechanism that holds open the entrance door. The galvanized sheet metal on these Safeguards seems to prevent that. I also like that I can see what I've caught without having to open the trap (couldn't do that with the Shermans). And that ventilation I'm sure also aids in scent dispersal of bait. With 1/2doz of these have so far captured: Deer Mice, Short-tailed Shrews, Red-backed Voles, an Ermine, a Chipmunk, a Flying Squirrel, and Red Squirrels.

Works well. Easy to set, bait, and clean

We have a chipmunk problem and have implemented for a few years now a chipmunk relocation program that's been pretty effective (we take them to prairie, lake very close too). I've tried numerous live traps. Either they're too big and you get squirrels, or they're too flimsy and don't work well. This one works very well. In fact, it's the ONLY small live trap I've found that really works and is dependable. Occasionally a shrew goes in, I just release it. It gets a little meal out of its adventure. Chipmunks take over the yard, however, so they get a new home. Highly recommend this trap.

With the new addition of the spring retainer, which is a good improvement the trap works well. Had the old ones for 10 years but they still work.
