Wait till you get a coon in that box!!!!!! He will shred it!!!!!!! I have trapped them in gardens only to have them drag everything in reach into the trap they could reach. They barely had enough room to move!!! A buddy took one of my traps and caught a cat food raiding coon only to place it in the trunk of his car to bring to me. BAD IDEA!!!!! When he got there the coon had everything he could get his paws on and drug it into the cage and destroyed it!!!! That and he may also open the trap door if you don't have a one way door with a door stop. Might be better off and buy a steel one or 2 and go from there. I used to do ADC (animal Damage Control) work and have caught 100's of coons. They still amaze me.
