Collect Required Parts

Build the Bucket

You need to drill two holes at the top sides of the bucket. Moreover, you should drill two more holes in the center of a tin can. Once you have made holes in the bucket and can now is the time to insert the dowel through holes of the bucket and the tin can. You are almost done with the process. Afterward, you just need to bait it and put a ramp so that rats can climb up to the bucket. Lastly, pour enough water in the bucket to kill the rats. You can leave it empty if you do not want to kill rats. 

How does Bucket Trap Work?

Once you set a bucket, it starts working. Rats jump at the can through the ramp. The weight of the rat sets can result in motion, which, as a result, throws rat into the bucket. If you have filled a bucket with enough water, a rat cannot escape it or climb up through the slippery bucket walls. Ultimately rat dies inside the water. 

Benefits of Bucket Trap

When you use other trappings, you must remove already caught a rat and set the trap anew again. However, using a bucket, you can find several rats. The bucket is easy is to build, and you can put any food item on the can fix in the bucket to entice rats to climb up to can and get trapped.
