I have a bad skunk problem at my house and would like to make one due to the fact that last time I caught a skunk he spooked and sprayed my door to the basement wood storage and caused the inside of the house to smell for a bout a week.

They are, skunk can't raise their tail inside, so they don't spray. Made me a lot of money in ADC work. Can't help with the plans since I bought mine from the Snare shop and MTP. “A government big enough to give you everything you want, is strong enough to take everything you have.” - Thomas Jefferson

Don't over think the triggers, all they need to do is hold open the door until the skunk hits the trigger. Here's what I do on cages, let me think on the PVC for a minute, bet I can come up with a simple design for them... www.iowatrappertalk.com ADC's Baits Click Here <--

Use a solid door and just a rod from the pan inside to hold up the door until they step on it or push on the rod. Very simple. Should get it from MT's post above. ~ADC~ Last edited by ~ADC~; 09/26/12 08:09 PM. Reason: too slow monster tom already showed the pics. www.iowatrappertalk.com ADC's Baits Click Here <--
