The NEW Boggy Creek Eliminator

Designed with help from State Wildlife Control Services, this new light weight hog trap gate lends a new twist to an already proven design.

Designed to lag into wood posts or to be used with steel "T" Posts or can be adapted to any situation you may have.

How the Eliminator works...

A trip line attaches to the front of the door
hanger and then to the rear of the pen. When the hog hits the line the 3 doors go down. It is nearly impossible for any hog to get out through the door after it closes.

The light weight aluminum doors allow even the smallest hog to get in.

The 3-door design allows all sizes of hogs to enter after the trip line has been released and the doors are to the down position. Allowing one at a time or multiples to enter while eliminating the chance of other hogs escaping.

The door opening is 34" tall x 38" wide. Each door is approximately 12" wide. Allowing you to trap all sizes of hogs. Overall height is 68".

You will find this gate to be very user friendly and extremely durable. (Now in Steel! Click here!)

This trap was setup in South East Oklahoma, near Soper. (The wild hog paradise.)

Shown is the saloon style gate set up with the ever popular 3 door drop style gate. These pens were
12' x 12' x 5' tall. Made from heavy hog panel gates
and designed to work with our all aluminum hog gates.

Day one we went to the site where the hogs have been seen regularly, set up our pens and used shelled corn for bait.

Feral Hog Trap

After setting up the pens with the gates side by side we tossed the corn very loosely around inside the pen as shown in the pictures.

We used tie cables to the back of the pen that we found after our first catch we should have used a stake in the back of the pen instead of tying to the panel as the first hogs trapped released the second door on the other pen from hitting the gates and tripping the cable to the pen beside them. This would not be a problem if you use stakes in the back of the pen or did not have the pens side by side as we did.   wild boar trap

The gates were a great success as we caught six pigs the first night. The biggest hog would have weighed in the 180 to 200 lb. area and really seemed to put the pen to the test.

NEW DESIGN!!
Boggy Creek Saloon Style

Doors are held open by cable rod attached to rear of pen. As soon as the hogs hit the cable the doors go shut.

The New Saloon Style Hog Gate - now without the center bar for a more open feeling for the hog when entering the pen.



The opening through the doors is 36" wide by 37 1/2" inches high.

Singles or multiples can enter as they want through the spring loaded saloon doors.

This unit breaks down for UPS shipping. It also can break down for storage or ease of hauling.

Watch Phil setup the Boggy Creek Eliminator Trap:

The easy to handle light weight aluminum gate held up with no problem what so ever. We are very confident you will be 100% satisfied
with our Hog gates as have found through our testing.

One of our customers in Pauline, SC used cattle panels from local supplier and welded heavy hog panels on the inside of cattle panel. This makes for a very easy to haul set up and catch wild pigs.

 

Feral Hog Trap
We encorporated the lightweight aluminum doors
for catching the smaller hogs that can't push open the
heavy steel doors. This trap comes with a tough powder coat
finish (olive drab or tan) for complete rust protection.

New Steel
Eliminator Trap

Our new all-steel frame hog gate is for those guys who just have to have steel! It's the same proven "Eliminator" design except with an all-steel frame.



 


This new steel and aluminum design is a great combination to rid your property of problem hogs.

NEW COLLAPSIBLE
Swing Door
Hog Trap

Our Swing Door trap has a spring loaded gate door. Once the trap has been tripped, the gate closes at an angle in the corner of the trap. This allows a void for the hogs to push their way through the gate even after the door is tripped.

Click here to see how to setup a box trap.

  • Quick and easy to assemble no tools needed
  • Field tested and field proven
  • Fits in the bed of a pick-up truck
  • Can be disassembled for storage

We recommend staking down the box trap, even though it has been successfully used without stakes.


"Thanks for all the friendly service and advise from
Phil. I caught these 3 little pigs this morning. More to come.
The trap works great and is easy to set up."
~ T. Johnson

Our swing door style trap is designed to allow a single person to set up a trap site. The trap has a powder coat finish to help withstand abuse from the weather and the wear and tear of trapping hogs.

Our 5-piece design reduces the amount of human traffic while setting up the trap, a great advantage when trapping wild hogs. This lowers the amount of human odor in the area which can keep the hogs away. Another advantage of the multi-piece design is the ability to get the traps into a remote area. Each piece can easily be carried in to an area then assembled. This design allows you to get the traps where the hogs are.

Trap works well for hunters, farmers, ranchers as well as city, county, state and federal agencies.

Below is Phil demonstrating how easy the Collapsible Traps are to setup.

The traps have no wire bottom. The natural ground
floor will prevent the hogs from being skittish while
they are enter the trap.


Transporting the gate is a snap. Above is Phil heading out to set up a site.


Collapsible hog gate shown above ready to go out in the field. This took less than 6 minutes to breakdown and load in the truck. As you can see it would be very easy to haul multiple gates to your trapping sites with ease. Ships easily.

Feral Boar Trap

Manufactured completely from aluminum, the Boggy Creek Eliminator and Boggy Creek Saloon Style gates are easy to lift and carry.

After working with various State agencies, we found standard steel hog trapswere just too heavy and difficult to move. Therefore, we built these gates entirely out of aluminum to make them very easy to install and move.

Easy to handle. Easy to move.

Weighs less than 55lbs.


Phil and Dr Steve White have used four 5 foot x 16 foot cattle panels to form a round pen. When not using a top to the pen, always make sure your pen is round so the hogs can’t pile up in the corner and escape. T-posts are installed every 4’.


Phil attaching the trip cable to the rooter gate trip bar.
  

Above Phil is checking the trip cable to make sure
everything is working smooth.


Time to scatter corn from 4' in front of the trap and in through the doorway. A pair of holes 2' deep are dug and filled with corn under the rooter cable trip wire.
  

The doors will be wired open until the hogs are hitting
the bait nightly and are comfortable with going
into the trap. We want as many hogs in the trap
the first time as possible.

Phil is shown above wiring the rooter gate to the t-post
in four places with number 9 wire.

Phil is adding additional corn bait leading in
through the gate door.

Lastly, Phil is pouring some black gold on a dead log
to finish off a pen set.

We will drive post every 4’ around the pen and this hog pen is ready to go.

 

Available in two colors.

Black Gold Wild Boar Attractant

Black Gold is an environmentally safe wild boar scent attractant. It is designed to be used as a rub and is best when applied to the side of a tree or post or when poured on the edge of a recently used wallow. Both hunters and trappers alike have had great success bringing in boars with Black Gold!

What makes Black Gold stand apart from other boar attractants is that it contains no salt. Hogs do not sweat and therefore cannot handle salt. Most other hog attractants have salt listed as their first ingredient.

As a scent attractant or rub, Black Gold can be used in most states that forbid baiting because boars are attracted to the strong scent and want to rub and roll in the pungent odor. Always check local and state game laws before using any attractant.
