The cage is made with 2 mm diameter wire, fully welded for strength and rigidity.  It is zinc plated after manufacture to provide weather protection and a quality finish.

The all metal 180 mm peanut bird feeder, which is included, attracts squirrels and feeds tits and finch size birds.

29 mm clear holes in the purpose made 31 mm square mesh allows small birds, such as tits and finches, to enter and leave easily without feeling confined.

A strong carrying handle is also provided.

Grey squirrels are vulnerable to cold and wet weather and they may not survive if held captive for a long period or overnight in any open trap.

A covered Elgeeco Refuge Cage attached below the floor door provides a darkened weatherproof compartment into which a captured squirrel can retreat if it wishes.

Use of the optional Refuge Cage is recommended when traps cannot be checked more than twice a day during periods of bad weather or before nightfall.

In areas where red squirrels may be present, always provide nesting material and check the trap frequently.
