Two Door Trapping Tips:

We have discovered that trap placement is very important for double door trapping. The best trapping method for double door traps is the funnel or drift method. This method works well with armadillos, raccoons, and opossums.Try to place the trap against a building or existing structure and angle a 2” x 6” board at one end of the trap away from the entrance. Repeat on the opposite side. Armadillos do not see very well and will follow the boards right into the trap. Be careful the boards do not prevent the trap doors from closing. Another variation for trapping armadillo is to use four boards, placing one board at each edge of the trap and angle them away from the entrance. Let the trap sit for a few days, making sure to check it daily. After trapping your first armadillo, place the trap back into its original location. The smell from the first armadillo will attract a second.
