Put a soup can over it. Worked for us and also keeps water out.
Nice job Tristan. Those DP traps are pretty cool. [/b]
I usually put an 8oz styrofoam cup over mine for eye appeal and it keeps the rain out. If I have a mouse stealing my bait I will put a golfball on top and the mice cant get in. [/b]
Good idea w/ the golfball. Tried the styrofoam cup once and ended up having to clean up a mess. Grant Woods spray paints his trap and tin cans white for eye appeal like you are talking about.
