For the glow stick it might be worth mounting the trap much higher on the tree say 10′ or higher the use a small eye bolt down lower to run your line through. The idea being at 10′ or higher you can see the glow stick from farther out and it also takes more effort for someone to remove it.
Thats a good idea i was thinking that you myself
Thanks for the video.
Have you thought about ‘stacking’ two primers in each corner, instead of one each?
What if you gorilla glued two primers together, in a little stack, and put one stack in each corner where you had previous. Sticking out higher, they ensure good strong striking by the trap bar. All four should ignite. This might also create a louder sound. What do you think?
KEEP PUTTING IN THOSE CLIPS BUD, THERE GREAT..
I love the idea of using this as an early warning system so you don’t walk into an ambush. Keep these awesome videos coming.
small head nail an muzzle loader primer work better
I thought people only got rat poison so if you want to do away with their wife or husband. At least that’s what I see on all the true crime tv shows.
Very interesting! How would you combine a large rat trap with a cheap dollar store door/window alarm to REALLY make some loud, long-time extended noise? I guess the window alarm would have to be draped/wrapped in plastic, to protect from moisture…
You could just pull the spring off of the trap so it can’t come back and hit you, it’s not that hard and you can put it back on.
So you have a power drill in your bug out bag?
good idea with the primers. the glow Sticks don’t seem easily defeated by simply taking them after the pop.
My favourite one is the 30 rat traps at the front door and you hear them scream
