Mice & Rat Traps for catching game

This may sound silly, but I also use mice and rat traps to catch game such as snakes, squirrels, birds, etc. I drill a hole about 1" from the end of the trap and attach 3 feet of strong wire, then attach the other end of the wire to a small tree so the animal won't carry off my trap. Bait the trap, set it, and before long, it's dinner time. Saves bullets, etc.
Deadfalls work well, also, as well as snares for me. Cool

Many squirrels have felt the wrath of a rat trap at my house. The buggers are a nusance and get into your barn and make a mess, so I baited a rat trap with peanut butter and fix'd the problem.
