Havahart® Xsmall 2-Door Trap

This live mouse trap is ideal for the trapping of mice, chipmunks, shrews, and voles.

The Havahart® Xsmall 2-Door Trap has been designed with the safety of the small animals in mind. This humane mouse trap, with its two gravity action doors, has many features to allow safe, quick and easy catches.

This Havahart® Two-Door Cage Trap is constructed of sturdy rust-resistant wire mesh with steel reinforcements for long life and galvanized for maximum resistance to rust and corrosion. Our live mouse trap contains mesh openings, smaller than competing traps of comparable size, which help prevent escapes and stolen bait. The two gravity-action doors on this live mouse trap allow an animal to enter from either direction. Sensitive trigger ensures quick, secure capture that targets the specific animal's size, eliminating undesired catches.

The solid door and handle guard on this live mouse trap protect the user during transportation, while smoothed internal edges protect and prevent injuries to animals.
