Examples

Fig. 5 shows a perspective view of a trap 1 according to the invention. The trap 1 includes a trap main body 2. The trap body includes an inlet end 10 and a side wall 21. The rear end 15 includes an opening 15 b. The opening 15b makes the trap appear to have an open end when an animal enters the trap 1. Therefore, the animal will enter the trap 1 less hesitatively. The trap 1 further comprises a cover 16. The cover 16 encloses an electrical compartment 18 (see fig. 6).

Fig. 6 shows an exploded view of the trap 1. The cover 16 is detachably connected to the side wall 21 by means of a connecting device 17. The inner wall of the cover 16 is the upper channel wall. In addition, the cover 16 includes an intermediate wall 13 (not visible) that separates the electrical compartment 18 from the electrical shock compartment 19. A switch is arranged on top of the cover to close or switch on the trap 1.

Fig. 7 shows a perspective view of the trap 1 without the cover 16. The trap 1 comprises a lower channel wall 11 and a side wall 21. The channel of the trap is made up of wall 11, wall 21 and rear end 15. Inside the channel wall, the trap 1 comprises a shield 8. The trap 1 comprises a first killing plate 5 and a second killing plate 6. Of course, a three-plate arrangement is equally feasible. The shield 8 protects the user from high voltages when the trap is in use and activated.

Fig. 8 shows an exploded view of the trap 1 according to fig. 7. The killing plate 5, the killing plate 6 and the shield 8 are connected to the side wall 21 by a frame 20. The killing plate comprises connections to the electrical compartment to connect the energy source to the killing plate 5, 6.
