How do you set the for on the trap, or hook the trigger on the trap to hold the door open? Do you cut a notch in the PVC for the rabbit to push against to spring the trap? I have made rabbit traps as a young boy and fought rabbits but I'm 68 years old now. I have even made rabbit traps using a stove pipe and can amigan one could use PVC pipe now because PVC wasn't around when I was a young boy. Using stove pipe or PVC you would dig a slanted hole in the ground and bury the stove pipe in the slanted hole and put a peice apple or a carrot in the bottom of the pipe, the rabbit would go down in the pipe to get the Apple or carrot and couldn't back out because the pipe was too slick and it couldn't turn around to climb or lump out. It worked because I've caught many of rabbits that way. Thank you for your video I really enjoyed it, it brought back a lot of memories.
I dont trap rabbits yet. I raise rabbits and i build a "burrow" for therm out of 1x10. They casn get inside it to fee l safe. Its like your trap but open on both ends. I figure that i could easily make a box trap out of them. The fact that they smell like rabbit is probably a good thing. What do you think?
You've got your do gooders and your do badder's. The do gooders will let your critters go or smash your trap. The do badder's will steal your trap. I've learned to hide my traps.

Do you sell your traps? What type of apples do you use?
I was looking at his Facebook page and it appears that Mr. Ricky has gone home to be with our lord, last July.

What do you do with the box after a possum catch?
Eat the opossum and reset the trap.
I have a rabbit I’m trying to train my dogs with and he eats potatoes. Could you put that in a trap
How to build this kind sir
I would buy one from you if you didn’t live so far
It's worth a try. I have just always used apples.
