摘要

It is made up from an iron frame surrounded by a wire mesh (1), the bottom is a metal sheet (2) surmounted at the entry by a small blade (3) followed by a second small blade (4) fastened on pivots or a hinge (5). This small blade is suspended by a rod (6) where another rod (7) with notches (8) is attached and fastened on a spindle (9) followed by another rod (11) which has a nick (12). This rod passes over the trap on supports with guides (13) and is inserted in a hole (14) of the trap door (15) and has a return spring (16) and a damping (shock-absorbing) spring (18). Inside is installed a mirror (21) with a protective metal sheet (22), and the whole assembly is raised in a slide (23) with a handle (25). This trap catches vermin alive and without injury. IMAGE
