Reviewer: Frustrated
I've been trying to trap opossums and armadillos. The mechanism that is supposed to keep the door closed is worthless. The animals just push on the door and the bar holding the door shut slides up on the side without the spring, allowing the door to open enough for the animal to escape. There's a small piece of metal that looks like it's supposed to prevent this from happening, but it is easily bent. I've tried bending it back but what can I say ... armadillos are STRONG. Also, even with the bar in perfect alignment, the door can still be pushed up about 2 inches. Not enough to let an armadillo escape, but I think it gives them incentive to keep pushing ... eventually forcing the bar to slip sideways and up. I hate this trap. I've lost about 10 animals, and haven't caught one, except for a baby rabbit and a small bird. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Havahart® - Consumer Relations Response: Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with the Havahart® Large Easy Set® Trap (model 1085).

This trap is solid and simple to operate. I fought with a competitive brand for months and got fed up with the opossum cleaning out the trap without sprining it. This Havahart trap sets super-easy and keeps you out of harm's way. Caught the nuisance opossum on the first try compared to five failed attempts on brand x. Would buy again in a heartbeat. Good job. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Havahart® - Consumer Relations Response: Thank you for taking the time to submit and online review for the Havahart® Large Easy Set® Raccoon Trap (model 1085).
