Thanks, I'm wondering how well a rat trap would do on a longtail. I have only caught one longtail in a #155. Shorttails are much more common in my area and nearly half the size of your longtail.

A wooden rat trap would work. Set it so the weasel lands on the pan.

How many adult male Longtailed weasels have you caught with wooden rat traps there in Michigan?


Catch a lot of them in rat traps here in Mn probably the NO1 way they are taken here
