Abstract
A rodent trap includes a base, a strike member, a biasing member, and a trigger. The base defines a base interior and an opening. The strike member is movably coupled to the base for linear travel between an extended position and a retracted position. The strike member comprises a tunnel element extending through the opening of the base. The strike member defines an entryway that communicates with the base interior. The biasing member is coupled to the base and the strike member. The biasing member is configured to bias the strike member toward the retracted position. The trigger is movably coupled to the base. The trigger is configured to contact an outer surface of the strike member in the extended position. When the trigger dislodges from the outer surface of the strike member, the strike member linearly travels to the retracted position.
