Caught a snapper in less than 12 hours
By Jennifer on 07/12/2019
I had suspected I had a snapping turtle in my pond because one of my ducks had it's flipper chomped which ended up costing me $700 in vet bills. I anxiously waited for this trap and set it out and the first night I had a HUGE snapper. Baited it a chicken breast I let sit in the sun for hours and put it in a mesh bag and tied it to the back of the trap. My only complaint is that I wish the back side opened because it was quite difficult to open the trap door and get the turtle out without getting bit myself. Also, a hook or clamp to attach your bait to would be handy to on the back side.

Good v Bad
By Rob on 08/09/2023
I had snapping turtles killing ducks in my pond and wanted the snappers removed humanely. Having used live traps for racoons and opossums, I liked the concept of this turtle trap. Pros - - Very well made - Worked on first night - Easy to use Cons - - A little more expensive than I expected - Long lead time from order to delivery Ultimately, for me, the good outweighs the bad and I would recommend this trap to anyone wishing to humanely remove turtles from their impoundment.
