ABSTRACT:
A safety catch for a rotating frame animal trap of round wire stock. The trap has two similar frames each frame having jaw forming sides and ends extending between the sides to support the jaws. The catch comprises a helix of an internal diameter about equal to the external diameter of the round wire stock of the frame so that the helix can fit around a first frame of the trap. The spacing of the coils of the helix is at least equal to the diameter of the wire stock. A hook extending outwardly from the helix to be able to engage, when the catch is in its useful position on a set trap, the second frame of the trap to prevent rotation of the frames. The catch is easy to install, even in a manufactured trap, unlike prior art safety catches.
