Abstract
A disposable rodent trap is fabricated in the form of a generally wedge-shaped enclosure from a single blank of pliable, bendable material. The right triangular ends each have an access opening formed through them at the corner adjacent the base. The back side wall is hinged at the top with the cover portion of the wedge and is bent inwardly to terminate in a moveable floor which has a transverse dimension less than the width of the main base of the trap. The moveable floor has a coating of adhesive material on it for trapping rodents. A provision is made for pulling the moveable floor toward the narrow interior portion of the wedge after a rodent is trapped to move the moveable floor and the back side wall to a position where the side wall is forward of the openings in the end walls for disposal of the trap and the rodent entrapped therein.
