Best solution Ive found |
11/10/2023 |
| I caught 2 skunks the first day it arrived. One more the next day. No spray, no smell of any kind. Apparently I have, correction, had, a family of skunks in the woods next to my house. I caught the young ones, now I hope to catch mama skunk. She may be more difficult as I think she might be a bit smarter. I should know something in a couple days. |

| Ive used this type of trap before, but the #6 skunk trap is better made than those other brands. Simple, effective design, I caught three skunks in three nights. Fast shipping |

| Ive tried a lot of traps to deal with a squirrel problem. What Ive come to recognize is that these are some smart animals, and they figure things out very quickly. I saw a YouTube video showing this trap being used on skunks, and how it ingeniously keeps them from spraying, and thought Id give it a try on these squirrels. I left it out in the area Ive been seeing the squirrels for a while to let them get used to seeing it, then baited it up with a few crackers. Voila! I found the door closed and inside was one of the problem children, nicely packaged for the trip to a new home away from other houses.
The best thing you can say about a trap is that it works, and this one does! I will be adding another for a second location. |

| I bought this trap to help an older lady in my neighborhood relocate a big skunk because she was losing all kinds of sleep trying to deter it. I wondered if it would be worth buying the trap for just one skunk. It turns out the trap has caught many skunks since then. Between me and another guy with a very inferior trap, over 15 skunks have now been relocated. Im absolutely certain were not catching the same skunks over and over again. The trap works great and I dont worry about getting sprayed. I take the live skunk in the trap on a little drive, set it out on the ground downwind from my truck, open the door quickly and run a safe distance upwind and wait for it to exit. They exit more quickly at night, of course. What happens after they exit is entirley up to your own personal circumstances. |

| I purchased the Tuff Trap in September. I needed to find something to trap and get rid of skunks that were actually ruining my lawn.
As of this date I have caught and disposed of five skunks. Hopefully tonight I will get one more.
Thank you for making this trap available. It is so easy to use and it really does the job. I am so grateful. |

Catches skunks for sure but coons trip the door |
9/2/2021 |
| Any suggestions to keep coons away to give a skunk time to get caught? Is there a specific skunk attractant available?? |
| - Rock T, OH |
| |
| We would suggest using a bait that does not attract coons. Here is the link to view some of our skunk baits. https://www.snareshop.com/products.asp?dept=302 |

| I am a 66 yr old widow with skunks in my compost pile. I purchased two of these #6 traps and in the last few days have trapped and relocated 6 skunks, two at a time. The traps are super easy to use and its true that the skunks dont spray. Great investment! |

| Weve had a skunk problem in our back yard for weeks. I did some research on amazon, youtube, etc. and settled on this trap. Shipping was fast, it got here to California in 3 days, set it out baited with dry cat food and marshmallows, and caught nothing but ants. Second night a small scoop of wet cat food and dry cat food, and caught a possum. Third night same bait and got a skunk! Release was easy, removed the front door, and then the back door, backed away from the trap and a few minutes later the skunk scurried off and into the bushes. I am 100% impressed with the quality and durability of this trap and looking forward to catching and relocating the rest of the skunks in my yard. Thank you! |

#6 Tuff Trap |

Great Trap |

| I researched skunk traps because we have a family of those stinkers under a building in our back yard. Tuff Trap sounded like folks have been having great luck with it so I ordered it from Snareshop.com on Wednesday and received it Friday. Super fast shipping. Set the trap on Friday night and didn’t get anything. Moved it to where I’ve seen the mama skunk and three babies Saturday night. I baited it with a small can of salmon flavored cat food and a marshmallow with a dab of peanut butter on top for dessert. It wasn’t an hour after dark I heard the trap door clink shut. Lo and behold, mama skunk took the bait. It was super easy to carry the trap to my pickup to dispose of the critter. Now for those babies. Buy this. It is so much easier than trapping skunk with a cage trap. You won’t have to worry about getting sprayed. |

Wonderful Trap |

| Just received my skunk trap, What an amazing well made trap. We live outside of Duluth & for the last few years have been over run with skunks. Last year I live trapped and then shot 25 skunks in the traps, what a mess. I did use S Steel shot so the vultures and Bald eagles could have them. With your trap & and a small water barrel....no more shooting for me, Thanks for the great product. |

Lots of skunks |
6/23/2021 |
| This trap has a bullet proof mechanism, easy to set, and release. I have four 4 of these traps. Ive loaned them out to neighbors and friends who have skunk problems. This year, I have caught 29 skunks, and transported them to the fields, where they can continue with their mouse catching activities. I have never been sprayed.
I use marshmallows, where cats are around. Where cats are not present, I use dry cat food, just thrown into the back of the trap which works well, and then put a little in the front to lead them in. This trap should be sold in national chain farm stores so more people would have the chance to see and use it. I give it Top rating. Thanks from Utah. |

The Anti Trap |
4/7/2021 |
| I’ve had this trap set for about 3 weeks. Plenty of activity around it but it doesn’t catch a damn thing. They even manage to clean the trap out and they’re polite enough to shut the door on the way out. |
| |
| I am sorry to hear you having troubles trapping the skunk. A couple of suggestions for you. When baiting the trap, you will want to make sure that the bait is as far back in the trap as possible, behind the trap pan. The skunk needs to be all the way inside the trap when it steps on the pan. If it isn't, the door will hit its back and it can back out of the trap. We like to use cat food or marshmallows. They have a good scent and they are also a good visual for the skunk. You can set a couple of pieces "trailing" into the front edge of the trap, but you want most of the bait behind the trap pan. I know it can be frustrating trapping animals, but this is a really good trap. Sometimes they are smarter than we give them credit for. Good Luck! |

| Much heavier and easier to use, in every way. Easy to clean after a catch, just remove both ends, hose out. Then put bait on the trip pan, close the back, set in place and set the front door. |

Awesome trap! Did the trick! |
12/2/2020 |
| Noticed on the night camera that skunks were getting into our cat food in the garage. Set trap outside with some canned cat food as bait and caught 1 one night, and another a few nights later. Calmly walked trap with the skunk inside each time to a field and opened the trap door to let him lose. The skunks calmly walked out of trap without incident, and best of all- no spraying whatsoever! The trap shipped fast too! I will order here again! |

11/23/2020 |
| i accidentally caught 2 skunks in my live traps. i was trying for groundhogs. did some research and decided on this tube trap. caught 2 skunks with this product. watch out for raccoons. they will roll the trap around trying to get the bait out. i placed the trap against the shed and put a cinder block on top and on the side. drowning method works great. i wired the trap to the ladder in the pond while i dug the grave. i used a fish scale to weigh the tripped trap to confirm a capture. weighs right at 8 lbs empty. they stay calm up until the trap is submerged. no smell! i used cheap brownies for bait. after the 2 skunks, i did catch a possum. trap is not difficult to hose out and the handle makes it easy to move it around. well worth the price! |

Great Trap |

| I received this trap very quickly. I set it the 1st night, but didnt catch anything. Second night, I caught a skunk. Worked great! Skunk didnt spray. I chose the drowning method, but when I picked trap out of water to dispose of skunk, it let loose of its oder. Maybe I left it in the water too long, but it did stink some. Still a great trap, though. |

Awesome skunk trap |

| Have caught 13 skunks so far with this trap. Easy to bait and set and never had one spray. I have only ever caught skunks so far with it and there are a lot of cats around here so its nice not worrying about catching peoples cats like you would in wire live traps |

Love this Trap |
7/26/2020 |
| I was made aware of this trap by my local Mosquito/Vector Control District. It is the same as they use, so, since it is the brand they choose, that is endorsement enough for me! I got the trap and set it up right away.
I place the bait on the floor of the pipe at the very back as well as on the back top of the pan rather than only on the pan. In my experiences it was easier for the skunk to steal the bait w/o tripping the mechanism when bait was placed only on the pan. I caught two skunks on the third night at separate times. Removing the skunks is so much easier than removing them from a wire cage trap as the tube is smooth and they slide right out.
The trap is extremely sturdy and well made. The tube is solid pvc pipe, so it is easy to clean and, since there are no holes to see out of, the animals stay calm and do not spray. The design is simple, making it easy to set and leaving very little to go wrong as far as its operation. Should last forever. I love this trap and highly recommend it! |

| I purchased a Tuff Trap and its the best thing I ever brought as far as a trap. First let me say I received my order days earlier than expected. Second I set and baited the trap the same day I received it . I went to work and when I came home the Skunk I was having problems with was in the trap. It took less than 24 hours to solve my problem. I want to say THANK YOU and this is the best trap I ever seen. Once again THANK YOU for your OUTSTANDING service. I am a very happy customer. |

| When I ordered this trap it arrived with no front door! The trap is worthless without the sliding trap door. Seems to be a lack of quality control. |

It works. and Skunk wont spray |
3/27/2020 |
| I am a rank amateur when it comes to the trappin life, but I got rid of the neighborhood skunk with this trap. It works well, and the skunk will not spray. BIG hint. It is not magic, set the trap where the skunk enters or exits your property or facing his den. If he is under a building, figure out how he is getting in and out and set the trap a few inches from the egress. |

50/50 on this one |

| Caught 2 skunks in 2 days. BOTH skunks were smaller and BOTH sprayed inside the trap. The trap was not easy to clean out and retained the odor. I also suggest a couple quick, cheap fixes to the trap to make it even more user friendly. Please drill a small hole in the lift tab of the removable door as well as the small locking piece so a gaff or cordage can be used to open/move the pieces in the event of a spray. Also, not quite as easy a fix, but having a plunging style endplate on the trigger end would help with pushing a skunk and its waste out of the trap, and ease cleaning. It was simple enough for my kids to use and understand. But we had to get in way too close to the spray and were quite off-put by that fact. It would need to be a large, full grown adult to keep the tail down from spraying. We caught 2 juveniles. One was able to fully turn around, and was reaching through the holes in the door trying to escape, and had sprayed inside. The other was slightly larger and was STILL able to spray. Now that the trap is sprayed, it is basically useless for a long period of time due to odor deterrent. |

Fantastic live trap for skunk |

| Been battling with skunk under our porch for 18 months. We decided to try the trap, what did we have to loose. It WORKED! We had all the skunks removed in 4 days and no one was sprayed! Thank you |

What a great trap! |

| Besides the great and prompt service during the ordering and delivery process, this trap is everything and more that has been said about it. Never out with bait for more than two days, the multiple skunks encountered and trapped were calm to the end and did not spray. Today was a surprise as the trap contained a possum that I have no idea how he fit into the trap. Great product, works like a dream, and Im now somewhat controlling the skunk population on the property. Highly recommend this trap. Built well, functions perfectly. |

Best trap ever |
8/28/2015 |
| No shortage of skunk supply on my farm since I started to raise chickens, I became an expert of catching them with the Have A Hart Trap, most of the times without spraying, but few times I got a nasty one that dowsed me with a full blast, recently I tried “Eaton Trap” which is a solid trap except that the spring loaded door mechanism failed before I even catch a Squirrel. My newest purchase the “Tuff Trap” is the best ever, I caught the biggest skunk in the second day, picked him up and took him to the woods, with no spry, cover or any hassle, 10 minutes later he came out and I made sure he will never come back. This trap is rugged, simple design that works. I highly recommend. |

| Caught skunk first night it was set. Great for in the farm site, able to take skunk to another location to dispatch, so no smell around the farm. Small enough that coons cant get in and steal bait and set off trap. Caught a opposum the next night. Will surely buy more!! |

| Just got two of these in last Friday, what a great trap. Paired it with the SKB skunk lure and first set equaled first catch of the spring! I can see these being around for a long time to come. Extremely well built and easy to use. Wish I had these when I was doing ADC work. |

Mine are pushing ten years old and still going strong as the day they were new. A hundred plus catches and not a one sprayed great trap snare shop |
