The traps come with 50 plastic zip ties that are about 6 inchs or so long. I would say the trap length is around 10 inches long. The trap is a plastic mesh and it is a sealed mesh at the bottom of the trap. I agree with another person where I use one trap inside another to collect the most lint and when I replace I switch the trap from the outside to be the new inside trap. They work well and I recommend them!

The fastener is a an 8 inch long electrical zip tie. The trap is 10 inches long and since its a meltable material its melted at the bottom. I wouldn't advise using on a pipe larger than a pop-can. It will run if stretched too large.

The trap is sewn across the bottom and is held onto the washer's discharge hose with a very strong rubber band (I double the band for a tight fit). I change my trap about once a month and there are just 2 of us to do laundry for.

This is almost like a really thick piece of tape. I ended up using a sheet metal cutter to cut the length. A heavy duty scissor should work too. Just clean the surface and apply firmly, making sure there are no air gaps. I applied the tape to the outside of the gutter, and then used sealant inside the gutter to cover the hole (attached link). The tape acted as a surface where I could apply the sealant. I have gotten no leaks since. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0006B6818/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

The bait works well.You need the plastic container to put the bait in.Looks like a box with two 3 inch holes on each end and a lid for the bait

I used an electrical snake (fish tape) and electrical tape to secure it. You could easily cut the p-trap and put new one on if it's that.

The one that I bought was 1 1/4" long. Also, the bottom piece is aluminum and the thin top piece is steel, not aluminum as advertised. I bought mine for a bipod mount and it worked perfectly, stayed on tight. I decided to go with a quad rail and took it off. I'll send you the one I have for free if you can find a way to get me your address without pissing off Amazon.

I use what's called a crock on the bottom of the cage, for my Eclectus. Works fine.

you could put a samll tack weld on the bottom which would prevent it from beinging removed or replace it with a bolt and and locking nut which could still be removed but would require tools and more time.

Hey CPA, from the bottom front female snap fasteners, look along the bottom inner seam for a corresponding male snap fastener. Wrap the female fastener around each of your legs BACKWARDS and snap onto the corresponding male fastener. Strange design but it seems to work OK. I hope my explanation is clear...

+They have hooks on both ends. I secured it to my handlebars with the soft straps also sold here, then no danger of scratching the bars or tank I don't think I would personally cut the strap off as I just use that left over strap to wrap and tie it to the tightened trap so it doesn't flap in the wind and also looks more secure.

There are many fasteners available from hardware stores and even Walmart. The easiest is a plastic anchor and screw. You'll need a masonary bit and drill. Drill the hole. Insert the plastic anchor. Screw in the screw.

Do you mean to say " a 1.5" trap connection"? I used the drain plug on a standard vessel sink. I attached the bottom of the drain plug assembly to a 1.5" trap assembly. Connection to vessel sink and connection to trap went perfectly .... everything was sized to American measurements and standards.

There is a big nut under neath so you will need acces to the bottom to attach the nut

Around the bottom, on one of the sides there will be 2 wire clips that secure the cage in an open position. Looking at the picture the way it sits on Amazon. If you look at the bottom right of the cage where the right tunnel is, in the bottom ring there will be 2 rings that secure the cage in the open postion. All around it is a good trap. I did make a few tweaks to better secure the trap when opened but you will understand if you purchase the trap.

The traps are about 8-10 inches long and 2.5 inches or so in diameter. They work great for me!

I would suggest that after reading the operating information for the trap, that you redirect this question to the manufacturer. I am not going to be on their tech support team. I think the basic idea behind the traps might be ultimately effective, but maybe the implementation in the hardware is less than optimal.

I have the built in gunwale rod holders in my boat. The trap ease puller base looks like it is meant to be permanently mounted with the supplied bolts to the gunwale. I did not want to mount it that way, so I bought a scotty gimbal mount - Scotty Gimbal Mount (Length- 9 Inch) - which slides into the gunwale rod holders. I then attached a bamboo cutting board to the gimbal mount and mounted the trap ease base to the board. I can use the board for cleaning fish and cutting up bait and then drop in the trap ease puller when I need it.
