ABSTRACT:
A small animal trap of a type which can be economically produced and is constructed so that the user can discard it with the captured animal without any exposure to the animal. The trap is in the form of a thin-walled enclosure of resilient plastic with a door flap being formed in the surrounding wall by slits with a portion of the wall adjacent the wall being integrally attached to the door flap so that the resiliency of the plastic allows the door to be bent inwardly to an animal admitting condition but is normally biased to a closed condition in which it is flush with the surrounding wall. The trip member, which may be made separate to the enclosure, is provided for holding the door flap in the open condition and is connected to the door flap or wall in a manner to readily become disconnected if it is slightly moved by an animal entering or by the animal's activities within the enclosure. The entire enclosure, including the door flap can be molded as an integral unit in a single plastic molding step, and the form of the trip member, which may be a second molded part of the trap, can be of a simple form and constructed so as to permit the user to install it when setting the trap.
