Drop trap plans?

[Kevin]

Does anyone have 'Drop Trap' plans? I'm renovating my kit box and looking into making a better trap. I already have the plywood, 1x1's, and dowel rods.

Help is greatly appreciated!


God Bless,
Kevin

Is the vertical opening of 7'' big enough for them to drop into?

That should be big enough. The birds should be able to drop into something even smaller. I have another trap that is just a swing board that only opens about 5".

Yeah, there are cats around my neighborhood too. My dog keeps them away and at night the trap is going to be closed.

Here's what I came up with. It's my very first attempt and hopefully my last one for this loft. What do you guys think?

Here's my version of a drop trap.

nice job kevin. just make sure you close it at nigh to prevent predator from coming in.

mine looks like what ezemaxima has on her loft.
