I have a cat trap built the same way but i am afraid the raccoon might be too big for it.** A: That will depend upon the raccoon in question. I've caught a lot of woodchucks, opossum, squirrels, the occasional bird, and a skunk in my 1079 but have been having mixed results with a current raccoon problem--raccoons got into an attic. I caught a medium sized one right away and another a few days later. Unfortunately the second one flipped the trap over which released the gravity lock and it was able to escape. After that I wired the trap to the roof framing so it couldn't be moved and they attacked the trap from the outside to get the bait... they even pulled the trigger rod out of the trap! I ordered a Havahart 1081 (15x15x42) recently and it arrived Wednesday. I set it Thursday evening and caught a huge raccoon overnight. I had that new trap wired to the roof framing also and covered the floor of the trap and pan with a piece of carpet that was in the attic. Some sardines (in a tin that was opened just a crack) was placed near the pan and away from the end and sides so the raccoons couldn't reach it. Regarding the it depends aspect... How big is the raccoon you are after in reality. If it is truly a large one get a bigger trap and I think you'll have better luck. **Q: why bait tray tripped, bait gone, no catch** A: Depends on bait.... Birds and rats can get in and out without tripping the trap! I had to bend the wire at the top hook where it lockcs and it works fine. I always test it when I leave it. I have caught 12 Racoons...3 feral cats...and one neighbors trap. I have had the best luck with Fried Chicken left over bones, Marchmallows, and Reeses Peanut Butter cups.What amazies me is if caught with a couple of chicken bones as bait when I go to get the trap the Coon has eaten the entire bone. **Q: What's the difference between "Havahart 1079 Live Animal Professional-Style One-Door Raccoon, Groundhog, Opossum, and Stray Cat..." and Havahart 1089?** A: The only difference is that in the 1089, when you lift the handle, it automatically sets the trap or locks the door for the animal you are trying to catch. In the 1079, which I bought, you set the trap manually. I like being able to get the bait inside and every thing done before I set the spring on the door. I don't want my arm cought in it trying to get the bait set. If you are trying to catch raccoons, you will also need something to stabilize the cage. You would be surprised how a caccoon can roll the cage. Sue **Q: What have you put under it (to prevent bathroom accidents in your vehicle) during transportation?** A: I use a trash bag and put newspaper in between the bag and the trap. Plastic alone is not a good idea because liquid just roll right of. The newspaper absorbs the liquid, the trash bag prevent the dirty newspaper from touching the seat. ## Frequently Bought Together - HAVAHART 1079SR Large 1-Door Humane Catch and Release Live Animal Trap Cage - Live Raccoon Trap, for Bobcats, Beavers, Dogs, & More - RAPICCA Animal Handling Gloves Bite Proof Double Leather Reinforced Padding Dog,Cat Scratch,Bird Handling Falconry Gloves Grabbing Reptile Squirrel Snake Bite 16in Grey-Black - Trap Cage Cover,ONLY Cover, Cage not Included, Heavy Duty Animal Trap Cage Cover Small Animal Trap Cover for 1-Door Humane Cat Trap 32 x 10 x 12inch (Army Green，ONLY Cover, Cage not Included) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/1098477-havahart-large-1-door-live-animal-trap-for-raccoons-cats](https://www.desertcart.us/products/1098477-havahart-large-1-door-live-animal-trap-for-raccoons-cats) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-07-20*
