    Satisfied

    By James on 02/13/2021

    Good solid wire trap that works. The price was less than less quality traps in the box stores and shipping was fast! I prefer not to buy Chinese products though!

    Self releasing trap

    By Lance on 08/25/2020

    Quality construction but I've trapped the same large raccoon three times that pushes open the door and is released. Seen him do it once...

    Great trap

    By Dennis on 04/17/2020

    Trap works great, the only problem that I can see in the near future it's going to rust, it has already started rusting a little after a couple of weeks outside. The paint seems to be a little thin.

    Peaches saved!

    By Rick on 07/26/2020

    I have lost peaches for the past three years to coonThe first night I set the trap around my peach trees, my neighbor called me to let me know that three coon were hanging around the trap. When I went out to check, one coon went up the peach tree, and one was in the trap. I ran over and had to manually set the trap. I found there was a slight flaw with the trap. If a coon is small, It will not set off the trap because of it's weight. It can go in, take the bait and not set it off. If the coon is larger it never misses. I have caught 7 coon in 2 weeks and finally saved my peaches. Thanks Duke.

    Large Fox and Raccoon trap

    By Barndt on 07/24/2020

    Trap is strongly built with heavy wire. Door is made of bars with rings that slide down to prevent an animal from raising door. The rings make it difficult to set trap because you have to raise both rings to raise door. Dangerous if you have a Coon in there because you are putting your hands close to animal if you want to release it. Small trap door to add bait at back of trap has no latch. Trigger rod has only one notch so you can't adjust sensitivity. Trigger foot platform is made of wire and many animals won't step on it. This trap is not worth what I paid for it. I would not buy another one made like this.

    Save your money

    By Tc on 07/22/2022

    I was extremely disappointed with this so called “heavy duty” trap. First off, once you open the box you can't return it; it's made in china, the “heavy duty” wire is little more than chicken wire; the trap door is barely engineered to stay open and when a rambunctious animal rolls the cage over the “trap door” falls wide open. I found an honest to goodness heavy duty trap Made in USA at a local Huffmans Farm and Home for equivalent $$$. Save your money.

    Raccoons Beware!

    By Tom on 09/24/2021

    This is a serious trap. The ones you typically find are too small and will not work on full size coons. This one does.

    Country Man From Georgia

    By Gary on 10/16/2020

    I have only used the trap twice. The first time I used it the opossum went in and ate half the cat food and then left and must of bumped the door on the way out because the door was down but the opossum was nowhere to be found. After that I decided to adjust the moving parts to make it easier for the floor piece to spring. I also lubricated all the moving parts to make it easier to spring the trap. On the second try , lo and behold I got him. This opossum was so big, he was a keeper. You would not throw him back. One thing about Georgia, we know how to grow opossums.

    Good Solid Trap

    By Mack on 10/02/2020

    Seems solid and well-constructed. Some of the paint was scraped off in several spots when received, but I re-painted it with flat paint anyway. Shipping time was reasonable.

    Heavy duty & built to last.

    By Rosemarie on 09/25/2020

    Love this cage! Heavy duty and well built to out last the raccoons that always seem to invade us. I've been looking for one like this for awhile and very happy when it came back into stock. Easy to use and the size is great.

    Larger than expected

    By Charles on 09/11/2020

    This trap is much larger than the first Dukes raccoon trap I had. Also, something keeps tripping the the trap and stealing the bait...? I'm gonna put a camera on it this week. But all in all, a very sturdy and well-made trap.

    By Susan on 07/26/2022

    Wow! Got this live trap one day and captured that pesky huge raccoon that night. Our other cage couldn't hold it. I would recommend this Cage to anyone with a hard to catch creature!

    great trap

    By Daniel on 06/05/2020

    I like this trap, the trip mechanism is not all the way to the back like others and has a higher probably of tripping when entered. In my other trap the trip plate is at the back and the animal can eat over it without ever stepping on it. Food would be gone each day but the trap was still set. Bought this trap because the trap i was using could not catch an armadillo that was tearing up my yard. Caught it first night with this one. Decent construction, better than most. Sensitive trip mechanism. Happy with purchase.

    Duke Trap(1114)

    By Pamela on 09/11/2022

    I have a very old rusted trap. Needed to catch ground hogs so as not to eat the garden which is fenced in by the way. Caught a grhog but it chewed a hole in it and got out. Repaired the old trap and one got caught and chewed the new wire again to get out. Ordered 2 of these traps. Set one and caught a grhog the next afternoon and it died in the trap. Reset it and caught another the next afternoon and it died in the trap. I recommend this trap because it has the wire plate instead of the solid metal one that animals can bend making the trap not work properly. Also it has a feeding door but we put a clip on it just in case. It is the only trap I found that is most like the old one. I think you will be satisfied with it.

    New but not improved

    By Mort on 08/18/2023

    Construction quality not as good as my previous Duke trap. Not sure where it was made, but this one was made in China. I had to add reinforcements in several spots before first use

    Rugged, great mechanism, a little rust

    By Daniel on 09/29/2023

    Right away caught two possum and one armadillo. It sat through one rain, now showing a little rust in friction places. Critters don't care, but eventually I'll need to spray paint it if it keeps rusting.

    Damaged In Shipping, But Good Trap

    By Sam on 07/22/2022

    Through no fault of the manufacturer or DoMyOwn, the trap was rendered unusable without extensive repairs at some point in the shipping process. DoMyOwn gave me a full refund on the item and didn't require me to return it, so I eventually made time to cobble it into working condition. Since it's been repaired, it has been a very effective live trap. Our raccoons have met their match! The trap and DoMyOwn are held in high esteem here at our place!

    Good trap

    By John on 10/13/2023

    All my other live animal traps were too light. The coons and possums tore them up. This trap is strong. Some years I have caught 12 or more coons and possums and it's the only trap that works. Like all traps you have to learn how to set the trip.

    large trap

    By Lloyd on 06/24/2022

    great heavy duty trap- big racoons can bend their way out of light traps. racoons are indiscriminate killers, our chickens and ducks. they met their match with our DUKE TRAP. THIS IS OUR SECOND TRAP . that what happens when you lend it out and don't get it back. MIDWAY UT.

    Works Great

    By John on 06/17/2022

    I stared using this trap as soon as I got it. I have already caught several raccoons. I plan on moving it to a new location and hopefully lower the population more.

    Heavy duty trap that serves the purpose.

    By Ron on 09/11/2020

    Good heavy duty trap, plenty large enough. I had one raccoon giving me problems, caught it the first night with this trap using marshmallows. The raccoon was a large one, I would guess 25-30lbs, but had plenty of room in this trap. I like the way the door releases when the trap is rolled over. Trap was received with hole in side of the manufacturer's box. It was not shipped inside of a second box. Side of trap next to door was slightly bent, preventing the trap door from closing properly. It took me about 3 mins to correct the problem with hammer and block of wood and it was good to go. Also I fastened the bait door shut with a small carabiner clip. DoMyOwn's customer service is top notch as I cancelled two orders prior to ordering this trap, one because I changed my mind and second because the Tomahawk trap that I originally ordered was on backorder from manufacturer and I didn't want to wait. All in all I'm glad I decided to get the Duke 1114 trap. It's well built and should last a long time. The only negative thing I can say about it is that it is made in China.

    Raccoon trap

    By Tomas on 03/13/2020

    Great, heavy duty trap. First day I set it up I caught a large raccoon and the trap held up great I had traps before that the raccoons completely destroyed and escaped from. This trap was not one of them. Again works great
