Customer Reviews for Havahart Cage Trap Model 1079

The trap arrived very soon, set it up with a trail of sliced apples that afternoon and the next morning I had my groundhog! The trap worked GREAT; I couldn’t believe how easy I trapped the groundhog that was causing a mess under my shed and in my garden. The only thing the instructions are tricky to read for the first time and the release of the animal is not as simple as the instructions say. I don't want my hands or my body near the cage when releasing a wild trapped animal.

As soon as I received the trap I set it up to catch feral cats. I caught 5 in 5 nights. The trap functioned just as I would have hoped. Good product. Well worth the money. I will continue to use.

I bought a Havahart Cage for a ground hog that was making very large tunnels around my home. I put cut fruit (apple and banana) in the cage near one of the holes; and on the first day we caught him. I took the cage to a wooded area away from my house and let him out. No more holes in my yard. I should have done this a long time ago. Thank You Do My Own Pest Control....

Wow this trap really works. We were trying to get rid of a possum in our entryway. We were quoted $399 for a company to come out & bait for 3 days. I found this trap @ domyownpestcontrol & was very pleased. The next night we baited & woke up to find our possum. We let him go several miles away & my husband baited it again. We were so surprised to find another, bigger possum the next morning! It was really easy to use! 5 stars!

Sorry, but cannot rate as of today, but it sure would trap it if it went in. Haven't trapped the little pest yet. Think it is an armadillo and have heard they are real elusive. Will probably have to use a more drastic measure. It was delivered in a timely manner and will eventually get to use it.

For the past 2 years I have had a opossum going under my home. It wasn't until this year that she decided to nest, causing a nightmarish flea infestation. Within the first week, after setting the trap, it caught a roaming cat as well as the opossum.

Great Product. Large enough for the feral cats I needed to catch and have spayed & altered. Sturdy & well constructed.

This a great product. Caught a cat rigt away and was able to relocate it very easily, both in transporting and releasing it.

Followed Havahart instructions. Online tips indicated cantaloupe was the best bait for groundhogs. Set the trap in the afternoon after smearing cantaloupe all over the inside and outside of the trap. Only used half a cantaloupe. Put about a third of a half inside the trap past the trigger. Also put some one inch square pieces leading up to the entrance. Used rubber gloves so as not to get my scent on the trap. I had the groundhog trapped within two hours. Very easy to set up and use. I should have the one I ordered tomorrow. One more hog to trap. The key is using the right bait and not getting your scent on it.

Set out the trap and it was easy to load and place. Wanted to catch a "whistle pig" but caught a juvenile racoon. Have not seen the woodchuck lately but may set the trap out again and see what happens. But it works as advertised.
