More Effective  More Humane

The Elgeeco Squirrel Trap and Bird Feeder is mounted on a tree trunk or a fence away from predators, such as foxes, badgers, cats and dogs.  However, squirrels are vulnerable to cold and wet weather when held captive for a long period in any live catch trap.  A covered refuge cage attached below the floor door of the Elgeeco squirrel trap provides a darkened weatherproof compartment into which a captured squirrel can retreat if it wishes.

In areas where red squirrels might be present, nesting material can also be placed inside.
