Never had any luck with the box traps. Can't legally transport live critters here either. Went to dog-proof (DP) traps and scored after they started to go after our layers. ZTraps with diced hot dog just over the push/pull trigger. Going to try small marshmallows with a slather of grape jelly as the weather dries out more. Get an old baseball bat from a thrift store if you can swing but not shoot....
