A mole trap includes a molded housing with first and second portions. One of the portions includes two molded posts. A trigger and release plate are each pivotally mounted on one of the two posts, and are substantially encased within the housing. The trap may include a first shaft connected to a trigger pad, and a spring loaded second shaft. The first shaft is slideable with respect to the second shaft, which is connected to a plurality of tines. A release is operative to hold a trigger in a set position, and thereby hold the spring loaded second shaft in the set position. The first shaft is operable to displace the release in response to an upward force applied to the trigger pad, wherein the release is operable to release the trigger in response to the displacement, wherein the trigger is operable to release the spring loaded outer shaft.

Mole trap and method of operation therefor

An insecticidal activatable bait station including a base, the base having an integral structured reservoir provided therein, a series of piercing spikes extend upwardly from the base of the reservoir, and are provided for piercing the seal of a container holding a supply of liquid insecticide, to allow for the deposition into the base when prepared for usage. A series of columns extend upright form the base, holds the containerized liquid either in an elevated position, as during shipment, storage, display, or while awaiting its usage, but that when the liquid container is lowered, and pierced, the container is held into its lowered position, its seal having been pierced, for deposition of its liquid insecticide into the base reservoir, for consumption by any insects. Convenient ramps are provided to allow access through slots into the reservoir, when attracting any insect located nearby.
