World’s Best Rat and Squirrel Trap: Uhlik Repeater

Whether you’re fighting rats at your barn, hunt camp, or bugout cabin or simply trying to combat ground squirrels undermining your building’s foundations, this trap looks to be a real winner. It’s called the Uhlik Repeater.

It’s a simple and clever live-catch trap. Critters walk up top, approach the bait, and trigger the trap door. It drops out from under them and they fall into the cage below. And this can repeat over and over, allowing you to capture a whole slew of critters in one sitting — without having to keep resetting the trap.

This could also be a great way to get yourself a little protein in a survival setting. Even city squirrels breed like crazy and taste good.

And, that’s about it, unless you want to see buzzards eating the rats — or hear about his plans to hunt pronghorn antelope using an 1862 muzzleloading rifle.

Want to buy one of these traps? Apparently, the only way to do it is to contact the inventor, Matthew Uhlik: uhlikrepeater@yahoo.com Tell him you heard about it on AllOutdoor.com.
