Product Overview

Tomahawk Model 1232 is a plastic trap that measures 32L x 12W x 12H and weighs 13 lbs. It's made from durable polyethylene and formed into one solid piece. The solid frame construction protects animals from the environment and handlers from animals. It also prevents trapped animals from reaching outside the trap and damaging the surrounding area and prevents animals from reaching into the trap and stealing bait. Dura poly traps are an excellent choice when animals need to be trapped in populated areas because captured animals cannot be seen from the outside, and people cannot reach into the trap and disturb the animal.

    Great trap for professionals

    By Jesse on 04/07/2013

    Verified Purchase

    I've wanted a trap like this forever!! trapping & relocating nuisance animals is a service I offer as a pest control operator. I've been sprayed by skunks, clawed at by raccoon's & have had the back of my truck soiled by urine & fecal matter from animals I'm relocating. This trap solves all of those problems. Pricey? Yes, but worth it to me.

    Best trap for raccoons and skunks

    By Tony on 09/30/2013

    Verified Purchase

    The raccoons tearing up my yard were not deterred by chemical and natural repellents, motion-detection sprinklers and barking dog alarms, and electrical "scat mats." A live-catch steel cage trap caused excessive agitation and allowed raccoons to claw aggressively as the trap was moved. One was even able to bend the cage bars and escape. It also made for unbearable spraying from any skunk that was trapped. The poly trap solved all of those problems immediately. Trapped raccoons remain much calmer while they are being relocated. There is nothing for their claws to grab. Skunk spray is completely confined to the impermeable and seamless trap box, isolating the source of the smell and greatly increasing the effectiveness of neutralizing agents. This is a well-designed, well-made product of exceptional strength and durability. Don't waste you time or money with anything else.

    Good design.

    By Lee on 11/05/2016

    I bought this trap because I'm a hobby farmer chickens and a calf. Making it a regular stop for raccoons, skunks, and opossum. I wanted a trap big enough for raccoon but yet don't want to deal with the smell of the skunk. I knew I had a skunk and that prompted me to make this purchase. 2nd night caught the skunk I could handle the trap with no issues. Now I just leave it set next to the chicken coop to catch any passer bys.

    We LOVE our trap. it is easy to use and keeps everything clean and safe. Raccoon felt safe as he didn't make any noise. Interesting fact: professional trapper has never seen one of those and now he wants to buy few of those too :-)

    Day 2 - Got My Pesky Raccoon

    By Den on 08/10/2015

    The trap worked as advertised. On the second night that I put the trap out I got the pesky raccoon that's been frequenting our patio at night. I've since had another coon visit. This time he/she managed to get the marshmallows without touching the trap door lever. Setting the trap again tonight. NOTE: I had to coax the trapped coon out of the trap by tipping it 180 degrees, it must have weighed 20-25 pounds. : )

Q
How does the release work for the Tomahawk Dura Poly Live Trap for Raccoons & similar sized animals?

Worried about getting sprayed releasing a skunk.

A

Tomahawk Dura Poly Live Trap for Raccoons & similar sized animals  has one door so it does increase the probability that you will be sprayed using this type of trap versus a door with an easy  release door such as the Tomahawk Deluxe Live Trap Skunks/Opossums Easy Release Door - Model 605.

Q
How do you see in the Tomahawk Dura Poly Live Trap for Raccoons & similar sized animal?

I'm trying to trap 2 colony cats, How can I tell if I caught a cat or something else?

A

The only way to see what exactly you have caught inside the Tomahawk Dura Poly Live Trap for Raccoons & similar sized animal is to carefully open the door a small amount to allow inspection but not enough that a caught animal would be able to escape out of.  You can see slightly through the trap to see the animal shape and can hold up a lightsource on one side to see if you are able to identify without opening.
