We're supposed to have a bit of snow tomorrow, but what bothers me most is being below freezing. Hard on the animals . Today it's 65° here. Crazy stuff!

Do you have the bait end of the trap against a solid surface(wall or box at least 6" tall)?

I think it leaves less room for them to back off.
All I know is it works.

That's true but the 'wall' works even when not on a run.
