ABSTRACT:
A bird house trap is disclosed which comprises an enclosed bait compartment or house, a bird containment compartment, and a dividing wall between the bait compartment and the containment compartment. An entrance opening is provided in the bait compartment and an escape opening is provided in the dividing wall leading from the bait compartment to the containment compartment. The entrance opening is spaced above the escape opening. A so-called bait housing is provided within the bait compartment and is movable between a raised position in which the bait housing is in register with the entrance opening thereby to permit a bird to enter the bait housing, and a lowered position in which the bait housing is in register with the escape opening thereby to permit the bird to move from the bait housing into the containment compartment. The bait housing is balanced on a counterbalance arm and is normally in its upper position such that when a bird enters the bait housing, the weight of the bird will cause the bait housing to move from its upper to its lower position.
