So I use a lot of the Duke 5x5x16 live traps, I know I could go to Tomahawk or my favorite that size is Safeguards, but they are cost prohibitive for the amount I need. I normally buy 100 a year. Anyone have any good ideas as to swapping out the door, treadle and tripping mechanism? What I use them for doesn’t fight the traps much, they are just cheaply made, and fall apart after a couple years. I keep thinking if I could modify them they would last several years. I do add extra j clips on the door already. Some of you guys have great ideas.

Why 100 a year? Because they are cheaply made? I make my own so I can't answer your question,
