ABSTRACT:
A pest-trapping device that enables quick and easy containment of one or more rodents such as mice or rats. The device includes a container that may be easily manufactured in a unitary piece. A dowel is fixed between opposing walls of the container. A rodent access ramp spans a distance from the surrounding floor to the dowel. An entry hole is located adjacent to the ramp connection to the dowel to provide a rodent path into the container. A baited spinner is rotationally placed on the dowel so that a rodent travelling up the ramp, through the entry hole, and along the dowel will climb atop the baited spinner and lose its balance. The rodent will then be trapped in a well portion of the container. The well may be empty or may contain a quantity of fluid sufficient to drown the rodents. The spinner is preferably formed in the shape of an hourglass.
