Description

How it works:

The rodent is lured into the Main Hood by the scent of bait. As it steps onto the Flip Platform, the plank tips under its weight, dropping the pest into the bucket. Thanks to the adjustable counterweight, the platform immediately resets for the next "visitor."

Key Features:

Adjustable Counterweight System: The yellow platform features a dedicated hole for a balance bolt. Pro tip: Use a long bolt and add as many nuts as needed to fine-tune the gravity reset. This allows you to adjust the sensitivity for both small mice and larger rats.

Rock-Solid Mounting: The Mounting Rim is securely fixed to the bucket lid using standard M3 screws/bolts, ensuring the trap stays perfectly stable.

Compact yet Effective: Total dimensions are 210mm x 160mm , making it compatible with most standard 3D printer beds and bucket sizes.

Humane & Reusable: Use it as a live-catch trap (dry bucket) or with water for a lethal option.
