Q: I noticed one of these is offered without the basin. What is the purpose of the basin? Thanks.

Ground squirrels coats can begin to smell badly from running around in the dirt and heat during the summer months. The basin is used for giving them a good shampooing to freshen them up prior to releasing. It's fun and squirrels really enjoy it. I recommend using a flea shampoo (with a nutty fragrance) as these cute furry little critters are occasionally tested and found to carry the bacterium, Yersinia Pestis. Yes, I'm talking about the Bubonic/Black Plague. I wouldn't kid you.

Q: What is the best bait to use for Squirrels (Got them in my garage and now going up walls and how should it be used in trap?

Cut up apples seems to work best. I think the squirrels can smell the apples better when they are freshly cut in pieces. I got 12 squirrels at one time in the trap by just useing the apples.

Q: What keeps the doors shut while the trapped squirrels are being transported to some other place?

This is somewhat of a lengthy answer...The trap has two tunnel entrance doors. These are gravity doors that the squirrel can push through to get inside, but they dont have the ability to lift it and get out. Once the squirrels are inside the trap, there are two security doors that close to cover the tunnel and ensure that if one of the gravity doors were to open, the squirrels still can not get out as the security door is tightly fastened.

Q: Does this work for burrowing ground squirrels?

For burrowing squirrels I had them take my bait through the bottom and top when I just set this trap on the ground by itself. I had to set it on a piece of plywood or concrete slab then put another piece of plywood on the top with a heavy rock to hold it down. Worked like a charm after that, but only one at a time. They were very aggressive little buggers so multiples wouldn't get into the cage together. They really liked pet-store bird feed and white bread as bait.
