Default RE: Best buy for traps

Just build your own, I have 10 traps that I have built in the last 2 years. We have tinkered with a few designs and found one that we like a lot. It is light and works well. It is a lot cheaper this way, I think it cost us around $30 a trap to build. We used "3/8 pencil rod, bought 100' roll of 16 ga. 1" wire mesh, and hog rings to fasten the wire to the frames. If you have a welder you can use and a good imagination, then you are set. We got an avg. of $120 a bobcat pelt last year. Our first three cats paid for the traps, the rest was profit. Good luck!!
