The big problem I had when using box traps was that when approaching a thrown trap you had no way of knowing what was inside. 🥴. Seems best I can remember there would often be a big old possum hissing at you or a pissed off skunk with vengeance foremost on his mind!🫣
We put 1/4"wire mesh on the back so we could look into the box and see what we had. Yes possum's were a problem and they would really mess a trap up crapping all in it.
