The Original Net Trap: Pig Brig® Trap Backed by Science

When it comes to wild pig management, not all traps are created equal. The Pig Brig® Trap System didn’t just enter the trapping game—it changed it. Pig Brig pioneered the passive net trap category more than five years ago. Since then, it’s been trusted by landowners, ranchers, and wildlife professionals across the country for one reason: it works.

Scientific Proof: Pig Brig Net Trap is in the Top Tier

A recent study published in the Wildlife Society Bulletin (Taylor et al., 2025) evaluated the effectiveness of three feral hog trap types—corral, drop, and passive net traps—across 850+ capture events in the southeastern U.S. The results? All three designs, including the Pig Brig Trap System (we know they used a Pig Brig - usually papers specify equipment used, but in this case they didn’t), captured 88–97% of targeted wild pigs per event when using established guidelines.

That’s validation that reinforces what Pig Brig users already know: when a trap is well-engineered, it delivers.

Built for All Seasons

Wild pig behavior shifts with the seasons as natural food availability changes, but the study found that passive net traps were less affected by these seasonal changes, maintaining consistent trapping success despite fluctuations in bait appeal. Translation? Pig Brig works year-round—during the lean times, green-up, and mast-heavy months. Seasonal shifts don't have to throw off your trapping strategy.

Simple. Effective. Field-Tested.

Taylor et al. (2025) concluded, “All wild pig trap types included in this study were effective... and when used appropriately by capable trapper personnel, they can be used to successfully control wild pig populations.” That’s what the Pig Brig, wild pig net trap system, delivers—a science-backed, field-proven, trapper-trusted tool that helps you protect what matters most.

Pig Brig: The Smarter Trap System

Pig Brig didn’t follow the trend. We started it. And five years later, our patented, net trap design remains the go-to solution for anyone serious about managing wild pigs. Backed by independent research, built to perform in real-world conditions, and adaptable to your land, Pig Brig is more than a trap—it’s a smarter way to trap.
