The animal trap system includes a glue board, an animal trap accelerometer sensor, and a signaling unit proximate to and in communication with the animal trap accelerometer sensor, the signaling unit also including an accelerometer sensor. The animal trap system may use differential signal analysis and machine learning techniques to detect capture events, non-capture events, false positives, and/or types of captured animals. When an acceleration is received by the animal trap accelerometer sensor above a preset acceleration threshold, it sends a capture signal to the signaling unit, and if the signaling unit does not receive such an acceleration event, the signaling unit sends a capture signal to an off-site receiver do. A method of trapping one or more animals using this system is also provided. |
