Havahart® Medium Collapsible Trap

Ideal for trapping large squirrels, skunks, rabbits and mink.

Havahart® Medium Collapsible Traps have a Space Saving Design that is ideal for easy storage. When ready to use, just lift handle and trap pops into place!

Havahart® Medium Collapsible Traps are constructed of sturdy rust-resistant wire mesh with steel reinforcements for long life and galvanized for maximum resistance to rust and corrosion. Mesh openings of these animal traps are smaller than competing traps of comparable size to prevent escapes and stolen bait. Spring loaded doors and sensitive triggers ensure quick, secure captures that target the specific animal's size, eliminating undesired catches.

Solid doors and handle guards protect users during transportation, while smoothed internal edges protect and prevent injuries to animals. These live rabbit, squirrel and skunk traps are used by professional trappers and animal control officers. Made in the U.S.A.
