Description

Too many turtles can quickly unbalance a pond-raiding spawning beds, eating fish, and damaging vegetation. Managing them by hand is tedious, and most traps are flimsy, ineffective, or harm non-target wildlife. The Floating Turtle Trap is engineered for serious pond owners who want results without the hassle. Its smart design uses turtles’ natural behavior against them: the floating platform attracts sunbathing turtles, who climb up and fall gently into the trap below. No bait required. No constant monitoring. Just efficient, hands-off control. Built with a rust-resistant aluminum frame and watertight vinyl floats, this trap is rugged enough to stay in service season after season. It stays afloat, stable, and effective in ponds, lakes, or reservoirs-without sinking, tipping, or breaking down. Humane by design, the Floating Turtle Trap doesn’t harm the turtles-it simply captures them for easy relocation or population management. With minimal upkeep and a proven track record, it’s the no-fluff solution for restoring balance to your pond’s ecosystem.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this harm the turtles?

No. The trap is designed for humane capture. Turtles climb up naturally and fall inside unharmed, allowing for safe relocation or population control.

Do I need to bait the trap?

No bait is required. Turtles are naturally attracted to the platform to sunbathe, making it both effective and maintenance-free.

What kinds of turtles does it work on?

It works best on basking turtles such as sliders, cooters, and painted turtles. Snapping turtles typically do not bask and require different management solutions.
