    <description>&lt;h1&gt;MUSKRAT&lt;/h1&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;h2 style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica; color: rgb(51, 0, 153); "&gt;Damage and Damage Identification&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p&gt;Damage caused by muskrats is primarily due to their burrowing activity. Burrowing may not be readily evident until serious damage has occurred. One way to observe early burrowing in farm ponds or reservoirs is to walk along the edge of the dam or shorelines when the water is clear and look for “runs” or trails from just below the normal water surface to as deep as 3 feet (91 cm). If no burrow entrances are observed, look for droppings along the bank or on logs or structures a muskrat can easily climb upon. If the pond can be drawn down from 1 1/2 to 3 feet (46 to 91 cm) each winter, muskrat burrows will be exposed, just as they would during extended drought periods. Any burrows found in the dam should be filled, tamped in, and covered with rock to avoid possible washout or, if livestock are using the pond, to prevent injury to a foot or leg.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Where damage is occurring to a crop, plant cutting is generally evident. In aquaculture reservoirs generally maintained without lush aquatic vegetation, muskrat runs and burrows or remains of mussels, crayfish, or fish along with other muskrat signs (tracks or droppings) are generally easy to observe.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;h3 style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica; color: rgb(128, 128, 0); "&gt;Trapping&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p&gt;There have probably been more traps sold for catching muskrats than for catching any other furbearing species. A number of innovative traps have been constructed for both live trapping and killing muskrats, such as barrel, box, and stovepipe traps.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Muskrats are probably the easiest aquatic furbearer to trap. In most cases where the run or burrow entrance is in 2 feet (61 cm) of water or more, even a leghold trap requires only a forked stake to make a drowning set. A trap set in the run, the house or den entrance, or even under a feeding house, will usually catch a muskrat in 1 or 2 nights.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The most effective sets are those placed in “runs” or trails where the muskrat’s hind feet scour out a path into the bottom from repeated trips into and out of the den. These runs or trails can be seen in clear water, or can be felt underwater with hands or feet. Which runs are being used and which are alternate entrances can usually be discerned by the compaction of the bottom of the run. Place the trap as close to the den entrance as possible without restricting trap movement&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Trapping muskrats during the winter furbearer season can be an enjoyable past-time and even profitable where prices for pelts range from $2.00 to $8.00 each. Price differences depend on whether pelts are sold “in the round” or skinned and stretched. Many people supplement their income by trapping, and muskrats are one of the prime targets for most beginners learning to trap. Therefore, unless muskrats are causing serious damage, they should be managed like other wildlife species to provide a sustained annual yield. Unfortunately, when fur prices for muskrats are down to less than $2.00 each, interest in trapping for fur seems to decline. However, in damage situations, it may be feasible to supplement fur prices to keep populations in check.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description>

Tighter mesh patterns not only give the trap additional strength, but also prevent critters from reaching into the trap and stealing bait, and reaching out of the trap and damaging lawns, roofs, decks, and other property. The easy release door allows for the easiest way to release trapped animals and to bait the trap.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;li aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;font aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0" color="#000000" size="2" face="Arial"&gt;Size = 19" x 6" x 6"&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;font aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0" color="#000000" size="2" face="Arial"&gt;Grid Construction = ½" x 1"&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;font aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0" color="#000000" size="2" face="Arial"&gt;Gauge = 16&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;font aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0" color="#000000" size="2" face="Arial"&gt;Weight = 3 lbs&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;font aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0" color="#1b762b" size="2" face="Arial"&gt;&lt;p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;font aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0" color="#1b762b" size="2" face="Arial"&gt;&lt;strong aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;img src="http://maxcdn.nexternal.com/tjb/images/made_in_usa.jpg" align="left" border="5" width="260" height="164" /&gt;PROFESSIONAL TRAPS WITH REAR SLIDING DOORS&lt;br aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Traps are made with the same great design, materials, and specifications as our Single Door Traps, with the addition of a convenient rear sliding door that allows for the easy baiting, and transferring of animals. The rear sliding door feature ultimately keeps the handler out of striking distance because he never has to get close to the trapped animal. It eliminates the need to reset the front trap door to release the animal. It also eliminates the need to reach all the way through the trap to position the bait beyond the trip pan. With a rear sliding door, the handler just unhooks the safety snap on the rear sliding door and pulls up on its handle. This is the easiest way to release a trapped animal, or bait a trap. &lt;br aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0" color="#1b762b" size="2" face="Arial"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;font aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0" color="#1b762b" size="2" face="Arial"&gt;These traps feature a sturdy frame that is constructed of heavy 16 gauge galvanized steel wire mesh for maximum resistance to rust and corrosion. An open fabric construction allows the animals to see through the trap in all directions and enter the trap with confidence. Galvanized steel rods are welded to the wire mesh frame for extra support and reinforcement. A spring loaded, automatic locking V-door, securely and safely traps the animal inside the trap immediately after the animal steps onto the trip pan, located at the back of the trap. Galvanized 1/2 by 1/2 inch wire mesh openings are welded to the bait areas to prevent animals from reaching through the outside of the trap. A super fast spring loaded door eliminates the chance of the animal backing out of the trap before the door springs shut and locks into place. The special locking system and the heavy reinforcement of the trap doors prohibits animals from forcing the door open, even if the animals manages to turn the trap upside down. This makes these traps perform well when trapping animals at any angle. Traps are also equipped with an adjustable trigger release mechanism that allows for heavy or light sets. Most of these traps include a protective piece of galvanized sheet under the safety handle of the trap, to protect the trapper against scratches from the trapped animal.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;strong aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/VM8tlnQWDSY?feature=player_embedded" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;strong aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;What Damage to squirrels do?&lt;br aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Squirrels are very cute until they become a pest around structures. If they enter a building, they are capable of doing damage to a multitude of objects because of their chewing behavior. The most common entry point for squirrels is the attic, which they may enter by chewing a hole into a gable or other susceptible area. In other cases, squirrel will chew into soffits areas and make themselves quite comfortable there.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;Once in the attic or soffit, they may nest and eventually reproduce with a litter of several young. In an attic, there is potential for damage to stored goods as well as to wiring with the potential for fire due to gnawing of those wires. Droppings from squirrels may also be a nuisance. If squirrels enter a home through a door or garage, they may do damage to furniture and upholstery in an effort to escape. In other cases, squirrels may do damage outdoors by chewing on structures, screens, lawn furniture, plants or digging in the grass.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;strong aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;What bait should I use for squirrels?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;Cereal, grains, nuts (especially peanuts) sunflower seeds, anise oil (a drop or two on bread), shelled corn, apples work well for bait.

Trap doors at both ends allow wary animals to see through the trap without obstruction and enter with confidence. When an animal steps on the trip pan, both spring loaded doors instantly snap shut and lock into place, making escape virtually impossible.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;li aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;font aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0" color="#000000" size="2" face="Arial"&gt;Size = 24" x 6" x 6"&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;font aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0" color="#000000" size="2" face="Arial"&gt;Grid Construction = 1" x 1"&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;font aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0" color="#000000" size="2" face="Arial"&gt;Gauge = 14&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;font aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0" color="#000000" size="2" face="Arial"&gt;Weight = 3 lbs&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;img src="http://maxcdn.nexternal.com/tjb/images/made_in_usa.jpg" align="left" border="5" width="260" height="164" /&gt;&lt;p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;font aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0" color="#1b762b" size="2" face="Arial"&gt;These traps feature a sturdy frame that is constructed of heavy 12, 14, or 16 gauge galvanized steel wire mesh (depending upon model) for maximum resistance to rust and corrosion. An open fabric construction allows the animals to see through the trap in all directions and enter the trap with confidence. Galvanized steel rods are welded to the wire mesh frame for extra support and reinforcement. Two spring loaded, automatic locking V-door, securely and safely traps the animal inside the trap immediately after the animal steps onto the trip pan, located at the center of the trap. Galvanized 1/2 by 1/2 inch wire mesh openings are welded to the bait areas to prevent animals from reaching through the outside of the trap. A super fast spring loaded door eliminates the chance of the animal backing out of the trap before the door springs shut and locks into place. The special locking system and the heavy reinforcement of the trap doors prohibits animals from forcing the door open, even if the animals manages to turn the trap upside down. This makes these traps perform well when trapping animals at any angle.Two Door Rigid Live Traps are also equipped with an adjustable trigger release mechanism that allows for heavy or light sets. Most of these traps include a protective piece of galvanized sheet under the safety handle of the trap, to protect the trapper against scratches from the trapped animal.&amp;nbsp;The two door traps a variety of different sized animals, ranging from rat to large dog.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;strong aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;What Damage to squirrels do?&lt;br aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Squirrels are very cute until they become a pest around structures. If they enter a building, they are capable of doing damage to a multitude of objects because of their chewing behavior. The most common entry point for squirrels is the attic, which they may enter by chewing a hole into a gable or other susceptible area. In other cases, squirrel will chew into soffits areas and make themselves quite comfortable there.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;Once in the attic or soffit, they may nest and eventually reproduce with a litter of several young. In an attic, there is potential for damage to stored goods as well as to wiring with the potential for fire due to gnawing of those wires. Droppings from squirrels may also be a nuisance. If squirrels enter a home through a door or garage, they may do damage to furniture and upholstery in an effort to escape. In other cases, squirrels may do damage outdoors by chewing on structures, screens, lawn furniture, plants or digging in the grass.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;strong aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;What bait should I use for squirrels?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;Cereal, grains, nuts (especially peanuts) sunflower seeds, anise oil (a drop or two on bread), shelled corn, apples work well for bait.

The rear sliding door feature ultimately keeps the handler out of striking distance because he never has to get close to the trapped animal. It eliminates the need to reset the front trap door to release the animal. It also eliminates the need to reach all the way through the trap to position the bait beyond the trip pan. With a rear sliding door, the handler just unhooks the safety snap on the rear sliding door and pulls up on its handle. This is the easiest way to release a trapped animal, or bait a trap. &lt;br aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0" color="#1b762b" size="2" face="Arial"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;font aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0" color="#1b762b" size="2" face="Arial"&gt;These traps feature a sturdy frame that is constructed of heavy 12, 14, or 16 gauge galvanized steel wire mesh (depending upon model) for maximum resistance to rust and corrosion. An open fabric construction allows the animals to see through the trap in all directions and enter the trap with confidence. Galvanized steel rods are welded to the wire mesh frame for extra support and reinforcement. A spring loaded, automatic locking V-door, securely and safely traps the animal inside the trap immediately after the animal steps onto the trip pan, located at the back of the trap. Galvanized 1/2 by 1/2 inch wire mesh openings are welded to the bait areas to prevent animals from reaching through the outside of the trap. A super fast spring loaded door eliminates the chance of the animal backing out of the trap before the door springs shut and locks into place. The special locking system and the heavy reinforcement of the trap doors prohibits animals from forcing the door open, even if the animals manages to turn the trap upside down. This makes these traps perform well when trapping animals at any angle. Deluxe Transfer Traps are also equipped with an adjustable trigger release mechanism that allows for heavy or light sets. Most of these traps include a protective piece of galvanized sheet under the safety handle of the trap, to protect the trapper against scratches from the trapped animal.&amp;nbsp;The deluxe single door traps a variety of different sized animals, ranging from rat to large dog.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;font aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0" color="#1b762b" size="2" face="Arial"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/VM8tlnQWDSY?feature=player_embedded" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;font aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0" color="#000000" size="2" face="Arial"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;font aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0" color="#000000" size="2" face="Arial"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;font aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0" color="#000000" size="2" face="Arial"&gt;If storage space is a concern, Model 603 is also available as a collapsible trap,&amp;nbsp; Model 202.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;font aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0" color="#004080" size="2" face="Arial"&gt;Model 202, is the perfect alternative when storage space is a concern.

If they enter a building, they are capable of doing damage to a multitude of objects because of their chewing behavior. The most common entry point for squirrels is the attic, which they may enter by chewing a hole into a gable or other susceptible area. In other cases, squirrel will chew into soffits areas and make themselves quite comfortable there.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;Once in the attic or soffit, they may nest and eventually reproduce with a litter of several young. In an attic, there is potential for damage to stored goods as well as to wiring with the potential for fire due to gnawing of those wires. Droppings from squirrels may also be a nuisance. If squirrels enter a home through a door or garage, they may do damage to furniture and upholstery in an effort to escape. In other cases, squirrels may do damage outdoors by chewing on structures, screens, lawn furniture, plants or digging in the grass.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;strong aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;What bait should I use for squirrels?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"&gt;Cereal, grains, nuts (especially peanuts) sunflower seeds, anise oil (a drop or two on bread), shelled corn, apples work well for bait.
