Nuisance muskrats
Got some nuisance muskrats burrowing into the bank.  What is the best way to trap them?   Set a body grip in the entrance? 

In the city so shooting not an option....

A colony trap set at entrances.  Looks like a live trap.  Can and will catch multiple rats at a time.

Those are worth looking at.  They drown in there?  The place I have the water is pretty shallow.  Not sure it would work, but I will sure take a look.

Yes sir.  No worries about snapped traps on dogs or kids.

A few years ago I had a muskrat bite right through my transducer cable on a one year old locater.
