ABSTRACT:
In order to support a bait which attracts a rodent into a trap, a recessed post member is formed on a lid member and secured to a post member formed on a housing member which is closed by the lid, using a tape which is lapped about the posts. The tape interferes with easy access to the bait so that a rodent will gnaw through the tape. Once the tape is broken its retaining function is removed and the door is free to close under the influence of a spring produced bias. The shape of the recessed post member is selected to reduce the amount of contact area with the tape and to facilitate release of the post from the binding hold of the tape once the tape is rent.
