Havahart Trap
By Dennis on 10/21/2010
The Havahart 1085 is the only single door trap I've had any luck with trapping wild cats. You must also use a human scent remover so the cat won't shy away from the opening. Make the trap as natural as possible with brush, limbs or any other natural material. I bait with either sardines in oil or tunafish in oil-both work great!

It just works
By Tony on 04/06/2012
This trap is rugged. After trapping two armadillos and a huge raccoon the trap shows no sign of abuse or wear. I thought the raccoon would have wreaked havoc on the trap but, no. Super easy to use. Just bait it and forget it.

Effective trap
By Nic on 01/05/2012
Worthless for adult racoons
By Andy on 01/09/2015
In Anaheim Ca we are being over run by rac coons. They love the dry cat food. Three juvenile ones sat on my patio table and casually munched on my cats food. They stared right at me until I got real close. The cats are afraid of them. So I set the trap and apparently caught ma or pa. They bent the door lock up real good and ate the food. So much for the 1085. They sent me a new door lock and spring.

easy set not so easy release
By Tony on 08/16/2017
trap is definitely easy to set. but when youre trying to release a skunk sitting on the trip plate the door wont stay open. You've either got to stand there holding the handle in the set position or put a rock on it to hold it down while a loaded skunk takes its sweet time leaving.

There is a sensitivity screw on the Havahart Easy Set Trap – Model 1085 so that you adjust how easily the door is tripped. This is helpful when trapping animals of different sizes.

I need to kill opossums chipmunks and moles. Is there a product that will cover all three.
Despite its appearance, the opossum is not related to the rat. In fact, the opossum is a marsupial, or “pouched” mammal, and is therefore related to other marsupials such as the kangaroo and the koala. The most common way to get rid of opossums is to trap them. There is not a poison labled to kill them. The trap that is made for that sized animal is the Havahart 1085 Trap. Please see our Opossum Control/Trapping/Removal Guide.
There are also no poisons on the market to kill chipmunks, we recommend trapping them as well. Another option would be gassing chipmunk burrows and this can be done with Giant Destroyers. Please see our Chipmunk Control Guide.
There are many different ways to treat for moles. One of the most effective means of mole control is using Talpirid Bait. One Talprid Mole Bait worm contains a lethal dose and can kill in 24 hours. Please take a look at our Mole Control Page.

I seemed to have the screw tension set OK and then caught a squirrel. But after that, when opening the door to set it, it kept immediately falling shut. It did not stay open at all. I have tried turning the screw in both directions and no luck. Which direction helps keep the door open? Do I need to do any adjustments on the side levers?
