Magnetic air tight animal trap assembly

A magnetic air tight animal trap assembly in combination with a metal enclosure comprising,

• a magnetic trap door assembly having a magnetic door, a hinge means, a bait means and a door support rod, said metal enclosure having an opening to permit entrance by an animal, said opening sized to the animal being trapped and to said magnetic door such that an area of overlap is assured, and the area of overlap being large enough to maintain an air tight seal, said magnetic door having said bait means attached thereto such that with the door open the bait will be on its upper most surface in front of said door support rod, said magnetic door being flat with projections on its top edge surface to be received by said hinge means;
• said hinge means and said door support rod attached to an inside flat surface of said metal enclosure such that said magnetic door having been received by said hinge means will pivot downward from an open to a closed position;
• said magnetic door, because of gravity, will close and contact said inside flat surface of said metal enclosure as the door is dislodged from the support rod by an animal, said magnetic door held open by its magnetic attraction to said door support rod and held closed by its magnetic attraction to an inside flat surface of said metal enclosure, said magnetic door overlapping said inside flat surface such that an air tight seal is maintained.

A magnetic, air tight, animal trap assembly comprising,

• a magnetic trap door assembly having a magnetic door, a magnetic door adapter, a hinge means, a bait means, an attachment means for attaching said magnetic trap door assembly to an inside flat surface of an enclosure, and a door support rod;
• said magnetic door being flat with projections on its top edge surface to be received by said hinge means and sized to said magnetic door adapter;
• said magnetic door having said bait means attached such that with the door open said bait means will be on its upper most surface in front of said door support rod;
• said magnetic door adapter being flat with an opening to permit entry by an animal and sized to the animal being trapped, said magnetic door adapter having said hinge means and said door support rod attached thereto, such that said magnetic door having been received by said hinge means and held open by its magnetic attraction to said door support rod is dislodged by an animal and with the force of gravity said magnetic door will pivot from an open position, to a closed position in contact with said magnetic door adapter, said magnetic door held open by its magnetic attraction to said door support rod and held closed by its magnetic attraction to an inside flat surface of said magnetic door adapter, said magnetic door and magnetic door adapter in a closed magnetized position overlapping one another in an air tight seal.
