Some body (Rick?) put up a you tube video of a guy (in Africa?) making a box trap. I'd like to see how he made the box out of sticks- with no string. I need to learn that trick!

Thanks!

Mack uses string. It's what hold the sticks in place.

i am a fan of bird trapping. i just read a trapping book printed in 1853. it had plenty of good bird traps. and i did some research into "Bird Lime" its a glue that is extreemly sticky, it is still used today on paper mouse traps and roach traps ...

Here is a bird trap I built that has fed me and the wife on dove meat out bush. I have experimented with birds traps and bird nets over the years and finally made one that works consistently...I use it in the desert where there are lots of doves coming around a water source...itīs made from scavenged chicken wire with bread crumbs for bait. The entrance is a bit flimsy in this pic and can be made more solid....75357536
