The Flaptrap

thingiverse

Experience humanitarian rodent relocation with the Flaptrap! This innovative mouse trap consists of three parts: a door, a body, and an end piece. The door slides into the body and securely clips onto a solid hinge, opening with minimal pressure but remaining closed on the opposite side. Inside the body, a built-in clip ensures safe confinement for the captured animal. To release the trap without harming the creature, simply press down on the clip to remove the end piece from the body. The end piece also features a small bait shelf to guarantee the animal reaches the end and triggers the door closure. The Flaptrap design is even makerbot-friendly, so print, assemble, and enjoy your humane rodent relocation experience!
