Perfect trap. If you got bad pigs make sure you get the boar shield. Very easy to put on.
Mark B.
14 first day I dropped the net and 1 big boar the second.
Les C.
This trap simply works! It is completely passive ( nothing mechanical) and there’s nothing to spook even wary pigs. Best of all?… one doesn’t have to lose sleep in order to “drop the gate”. After getting the pigs conditioned, they do all of the work… simply brilliant!
Lee W.
It is performing better than wet could have imagined. We have caught 55 hogs since mid February (46 in the same location). We have been surprised by the number of large old boars and sows we have caught in our sounder groups. A key to our success was advice received from the Pig Brig staff about keeping the trap set for multiple days after a catch. We have most often caught on the second day as well. Love the boar shield and cap. Trap is easily moved with a 2nd set of posts and anchors installed so you can feed in multiple areas.
Jason B.
Have caught 37 in a little over a month on 70 acres and even caught this boar while it was still in condition mode!
Steven C.
We finally set up our trap and so far in the first week we have caught 36 hogs!! This is a game changer for sure!!! Thank you so much for a great product and great customer service!!
Steve Chenault
Carl B.
This is the easiest trap to set up. Set it up for a week and caught 15 the first time.
Keith T.
Let the net down and less than four hours later had 14 caught. The very next day caught 17 more.
Lee Y.
Well built good quality putting up was super easy
Getting hogs inside of it is a different story but that’s not on pig brig
Robert Z.
From a Giant lone boar to a giant sounder this is the ticket to stopping their spread. 2” cutters do not phase this system
Robert Z.
36 in 4 sets was able to completely remove the remaining hogs in 4 separate sounders, 5 over 300lbs with zero trap damage… this is a game changer removing the ghost sounders in the Alabama river swamp

I have caught some pigs (25). I conditioned with the net up for two weeks. The first time I set the trap there were several that escaped. Since then, I have set it a few times and still haven’t caught my two target sows even though they have been in the trap twice; once on the initial setting and once on the last setting. I have ordered a trap with a drop gate. I am curious to see if it will get the job done.
Dr. Robert B.
It works was designed. Locate pig core areas, bait them, slowly lower net, set trap. Extended baiting time as trapping was gonna have a short window of trap checking once set.
Set one night, next morning caught them sounder. We have fed 46 pig lead all during hunting season. Trapped nine in one cast of the net.
No sign other sign of hogs in two weeks so am moving to another trap site on my property.
Expect to catch several boars in new location. Best product support I’ve ever experienced from a company.
Thomas M.
Vicky, The pig brigs are working, catching hogs, roughly about 220, some of which were trap shy of Jager Pro & Boar Buster. I've made a decision to equip our 21 HCC'S with pig brigs, just have to do a little at a time based on funding.
Tom
Gary Y.
It worked exactly as advertised.
Tucker C.
Love the concept but don’t think it will last long without the heavy duty boar shield
David L.
Easy to set up. Great hog trap.
Larry K.
Set up for conditioning for one week. Set to trap and that night the hog in picture was captured. No damage to net. Very satisfied so far.
Caroll G.
I used a "loaner" for a Demonstration by our local County Extension Agent and we caught 15 pigs ranging from 50 to 250 pounds. I was sold so I bought one and just caught a 211 pound boar. I am looking forward to many more catches.
Michael D.
The first time the trap was set we caught a total of 7 pigs. We had been seeing 11 pigs on camera while conditioning them. The pigs entered the trap around 11:00 pm we ran the trap at daylight the next morning. Had a large boar (350+) with big cutters. After all the pigs were removed from the trap we inspected it and found 2 extremely large holes in the boar shield and 3 medium holes in the outer net. After looking back over the pictures it looks like we had 3 or 4 small to medium pigs escape.
The trap is a good concept, easy to use and catches pigs but it's not tough enough to hold the big ones without receiving damages.
Jarrod P.
Works exactly as advertised! Easy to trap large groups of pigs.
Jim J.
Due to adverse weather and demands of scheduling it took a bit longer than anticipated to actually get the trap set. After nearly two weeks of hit and miss opportunities, I set the trap yesterday. The result is a truck load, 21 hogs, 7 boars, 6 sows and 10 piglets. I do believe we got the entire sounder from this location. Regrettably, a heavy fog set in about the time the hogs showed up last night so I wasn't able to get the videos I wanted to document their reaction to the trap. I do have video that I will share with you after our arrival this morning. No hog damage to the trap and only one minor fault due to a bullet hitting a strand of the net.
John D.
The trap works great! Superior customer service and support staff!
Mike M.
Have owned a Pig Brig for 1 1/2 years. I live in NE Texas. Have trapped over 100 pigs in several locations. It works great!
Simple and easy to move around. Then there is the support and customer service from the company and owners that is top-notch!!!!!!
It is amazing how many feral hogs have been trapped with the Pig Brig trap in the USA & overseas!
Lots of good sausage!
Proud to be in the Pig Brig family!
David T.
Trapped 28 hogs so far.
LEE H.
Works good and good support service.
Terry G.
Great product! I had zero experience trapping hogs, but with this system and the amazing customer service of Pig Brig, I am much more confident and completely satisfied with this endeavor . I know I have more swine to capture, just practicing Patience.
Jerome M.
This was my second set, two large boars…
Bill C.
I have all the posts and stakes installed into the ground and have been baiting the area with corn. My current situation is that the deer are eating all the corn and have not had one pig come into the bait area. Any suggestions on how to discourage the deer and encourage the hogs to the area?
Joseph R.
Worked great. I followed the preconditioning procedures and when I set the trap I had 16 in it the next morning. Disposed of them and baited the trap again and caught 9 on night 2. Four days later I had 9 hogs in the trap that I was not aware were anywhere nearby. This trap has solved my hog problem. I took the net up just to see how long it took and the difficulty. Only 45 minutes and no helped needed or wanted. A Pig Brig is a good solution and money well spent.
MARK B.
After getting T-Post in the ground.
Easy set up. Bait for two days then it was on.
Jason G.
It took for ever for these pigs to get to use to the trap. I have had a few climb out the trap.
I still love the trap
stetson s.
i was waiting a few months to write a review to give a better opinion. i have caught hogs twice with my trap now at two different locations. i did not use the cables that came with the trap to hook your straps to because i set mine up in a hay field and seems the cables would be hard to get out of the ground. i used T-post that i cut in half. easier to move out of field when not in use or when moving trap. trap seems to be better than expected. in my last experience had one hog get in there bout 7pm two more by 9pm with a total of 9 hogs when i got to trap at 6am the next morning. i would recommend a trap like this. it also seems that they are doing what they can to improve this trap as time goes on. with that being said the 5 rods on the inside of trap that are recommended to be upward seem to always roll over (does not seem to be an issue though). the hardware that hooks the net to the five rods on the inside could be better they will not open up enough to fit over the rod. all rods were close but one. I had to ply open the other four to fit hardware in and slide it around. other than that trap is great.
Jay B.
My brother and I farm in southeast Georgia. We have had a great deal of damage in our peanut and wheat fields. We bought the pig brig system particularly for one farm. It’s located next to a 18,000 acre management area, that is a pig producing monster. After we got the peanuts harvested off of the farm, we sat up the trap for the first time. It was hard to get the pigs focused on the trap, with all the loose peanuts left after harvest, but once they got turned on to the trap area we made our first catch. Our first catch was 8 in the trap and a spare pickup hanging outside the trap. For a total of 9. Reset a couple days ago and got 11 in the trap this morning. This trap system works! In fact there are several traditional hog traps scattered around this farm that haven’t produced yet. If you have hog, you need Pig Brig.
John William M.
Worked as expected. Held up great. No holes or tears from the first capture. Just ordered 2 more sets of anchors and post clips so I can rotate trap sites.
Charles L.
Set it up, no problems. I left it in the conditioning mode for two days, set it in catch mode and the next morning had a big boar, big sow and five of their kids. Best product I've bought in the last twenty years. Very satisfied with this thing.
Mitch J.
This is by far the easiest and most effective trap to use. On several occasions I have caught the whole herd. I have a very minor pig problem and these traps have helped me keep my population well under control. I plan on buying several more for my other properties. Best money spent.
Mindy P.
These people are the most amazing people to work with. Their customer service is absolutely amazing. They are truly genuine and caring people. I would highly recommend them to anyone trapping hogs! My father was one of the largest hog trappers around a our area. He was an old rancher and farmer and knew how to trap hogs. He loved his new Pig Brig trap!
John F R.
caught first single small pig, gnawed out in few hours1
Justin J.
I’ve set this trap four times and caught the whole sounder 4 times plus bonus hogs twice
Curtis Z.
Great Customer Service!!! Easy Instructions....Quality materials and design....Works great...Great Customer Service!!!
DALE F.
The day UPS dropped off my pig brig the pigs left my area. With hunting season in full swing and piles of corn everywhere we can't get the pigs trained. After hunting season the corn will go away and we will start training the pigs again. I have set it up for a field day demo and it was easy to put together. Can't wait for the pigs to come back.
Brehm V.
The trap was easy to set up. We started feeding in the trap area with the sides tied up. We had a camera so we would know when and how many pigs were coming in. In just a few days, there were plenty. We put the sides down and the next morning we had 20 pigs in the trap. That was not the whole sounder because the camera showed pigs still outside the trap. The problem was that there was no more room in the trap. We set the trap again in the same place about a week later and caught 3 big sows and 2 15 pounders. There is still another boar out there we would like to get. We are now at the point where we will move the trap to another location on the same property where we know pigs come in. This is an economical way to get rid of a BIG problem. I highly recommend it.
Raymond C.
I’ve caught 24 in 3 settings no trap out that is easier to move and setup
Russ S.
First set trapped 12 !!!
David H.
Caught a sounder of 15 head on the first setup. Conditioned them for 3 nights before setting the trap to catch. I like the ease of setup and the quiet net so there is not much chance of a "crash" against steel trap when a dominant boar asserts himself.
On the downside, in the first catch we had three pretty significant breaks in the boar shield netting and all of the anchor stakes were bent, 2 were bent at 90 degrees, easily fixed on the anvil and zip ties will suffice until I can secure some paracord for a permanent repair.
Pig Brig will catch hogs and we will use it a lot this winter
Tim M.
First catch a bore,sow,5pigs.
Can't wait to reset and get more
Great trap system and I highly recommend it.
Thank y'all

Video is from a friend who I suggested purchasing a pig brig to. We use them two of the traps and have had 100 percent success rate so far. This is the first trap that I have seen and used and thought that if enough people would trap with it we could actually hurt the pig population in an area. They are continuous catch and simple. A wild hog used to not have much to worry about, but now they are worried! Pig brig. Get you one if you want to actually control the population on a tract of land. Every land manager should have a pig brig in his arsenal of management tools.
Jonathan S.
Simply a Fantastic Trap! We have been very successful with the Trap in just a short time. We’ve set the Trap twice and caught a total of 22 feral Boars (12 on the first set & 10 on the second set). I don’t have enough good things to say about the Pig Brig, the owners Tony and Vickie or the support staff! Everyone is friendly and accessible should you have a question or concern and my favorite part is, they are American owned and operated!
Craig T.
Great product and even better customer service! So glad I found this trap. 32 down already!!!
Edward H.
The Pig Brig is awesome this is a video of the final two we caught out of a sounder of 14..We caught 13 total..We have moved it to another area and at currently baiting and conducting surveillance with cameras..Great product and no damage to the Brig..Video from Kirksey SC in Lower Greenwood County
William R.
The best trap system I know about. Set after a week of conditioning and caught 11. Have only seen 1 pig left on camera. I will get him in a week or two.
Tyler T.
Caught 52 pigs in a week. Good trap just now got holes. Need stronger netting but great design.
Les C.
An awesome product from an awesome company! Customer service is top notch. If you have a problem with feral hogs, there simply isn’t a better way to deal with it than Pig Brig. It really is a “life sentence”.
Rick R.
best service and support of anything i buy and i buy a world of stuff.
Dylan F.
Great trap and easy to setup! First set with the trap . I set the trap up, conditioned the hog for 2 nights (went right under it and started eating within 15 min of seeing the trap for the first time ), 3rd night set the trap and came back the next morning and had caught all 12 head .
Robert L.
Works well. No escapees. Hogs accept the Pig Brig’s presence quickly. So far it has not taken more than two days before the hogs are going in. The Pig Brig is very portable. I move it about 2 times per week, as I have many locations to trap hogs. Catching lots of large boars who bend up the interior net anchors a lot. The anchors are easy to straighten out. I wish I would have purchased a Pig Brig trap sooner.
Xavier M.
It’s great and easy to use
John N.
6 pigs in first catch. 2 in second catch.
Bob M.
Caught 35 on first set. Was really impressed with how the netting held up. The hogs just bounced off like a volleyball bounces off a net.
Scott M.
The Pig Brig,
Hunting the Central Western black belt swamp area of Alabama has proven to be a challenge. Yes we have a nice deer population, but we also have an overwhelming population of pigs!
It comes a point when you have to make a decision, live with them or try to control them?
Many attempts were made, so without a lot of detail on prior methods, I was introduced to the Pig Brig by a representative for the Pig Brig company.
He showed up with a new trap in tow, explained its practical use and jumped right in showing us how to properly set up the trap, the whole time continuing to talk and train us on how to use the trap successfully.
Use the instructions so net is set up properly he would say, raise the lower section and condition your prey, he would say regardless of how long it takes, conditioning is key he would say!
Condition, condition, condition!!
Trap is set, conditioning begins, we are watching them on cameras and we were amazed at how comfortable the pigs adjusted to the trap in a short period, about 2 weeks and about 150 pounds of corn later.
Yes, it seems in our area corn seems to work the best.
We drop the sides one afternoon in March 2021, the next morning when we approached the trap we were amazed to see 23 pigs corralled and running crazy.
Yes, and our rep did explain how the pigs would react when approaching but did tell us be patient and give them time to calm down a bit before dispatching the pigs. All worked as planned.
We clean up the pigs, took the net down and moved it to a new area and begin the process again. We have had success with each move and also success when leaving and setting the trap in the same area multiple times.
One thing I can recommend is spend a little more money and set out several areas with T post and anchors on key areas around your property, this will save time and energy. We did learn that setting trap in the food plots is not a good idea. But that’s your choice.
We hunt 1,100 acres, with about 300 acres of prime swamp pig habitat.
We have 4 different sites on our property set up for quick movability of the trap.
We only move the net, straps and main center anchors. One man job, easily!
Quick and efficient!!
Also what we do is continuously feed in these areas, even after successful trappings and trap is moved to new location.
They will continue to come back. Remember pigs will travel a good distance to find food.
So keep baiting.
At the time of this post we have trapped 138 pigs and will continue to set.
We have caught as few as 3, but remember every little bit helps.
Thanks!!
Marshall L.
After years of running jager pros this trapping system has won me over with its portability and ease of set up. The trap is strong and durable and can be deployed literally anywhere. As a professional trapper this trap is perfect. The days of dragging a trap on a trailer in a field or wooded area and finding level ground for a gate is over. Also the Pig Brig team has some of the best people at any point I can call or message with questions and someone responds quickly and offers helpful suggestions and advice. You don't get that with other trap manufacturers.
Jeff P.
This is not intended as advice, just my experience as a first time user.
We had a hog nuisance that turned into a hog problem. During the nuisance phase we were attacking a symptom of the problem, feeders. Obviously spin feeders attracted them so we went to troughs however, they only held enough food for the week and the big ones could get their head in and we had one hog that learned to climb in our feeders! We switched to port feeders and they learned to put their front hooves on the post and jump up and down using the top of their head to bang the feeder to make it rain corn on the hogs sleeping below them. Then the ultimate insult, they made a 3/4 acre clay iron pea food plot look like it had been used for mortar practice, nothing was left! Took 3 passes with a rotary tiller to get it flat again.
My partner and I were discussing the problem one night on speaker phone and my lovely bride over heard us and started searching on how to eradicate hogs on Google. She asked what about this “Pig Brig” I kind of laughed and said “sweetie they cost a couple grand” she asked, “how much have you spent on protein this year???”
So, on Monday morning I ordered the XT system. I had to go to our hunt camp (5 hour drive one way) on Friday to spray fields to do plots in two weeks and since I was there I wanted to condition the hogs to the t-post because my system would not arrive until Tuesday (mistake one, I should have waited on the system! It has some handy measuring straps that make it super simple to set the post) I called Pig Brig, this was my first introduction to Dear Sweet Amanda who for the rest of the story shall be referred to as simply DSA. DSA answers the phone at Pig Brig she is most assuredly one of the most professional individuals that I have ever dealt with over a phone. On three occasions I have called with some pretty stupid questions and DSA is patient and has never said “sorry I can’t help you” she has gone and made calls to Ryan (Pig Brig expert) while I wait to get me the answers that I needed. This kind of Customer Service is what I think our grandfathers got! I have not experienced it in years! So my question is to DSA can I get an electronic copy of the instructions for set-up and I explain why and about 10 seconds later I get an email from DSA with the link and then a text from Ryan explaining the distances between post.
I decide to put it around one of our 300 lb port feeders (mistake number two, way to much death and carnage around a deer feeder, in fact I moved the feeder after it was all done but put it there because that is where the pigs were. Bet they could find corn 20 yards away too!!!) I set the t-post and threw 50 lbs of corn between them (be careful not to get corn all around the post cause they dig for it) That night we had hogs the only concern they had with the t-post is scratching their backs on them.
On Monday I go home after dumping more corn and Tuesday my system arrives and I couldn’t wait, 5 hours back to camp. Wednesday we set it up (had to pull and replace three t-post because I didn’t wait on the trap and its measuring straps, the tolerances are pretty tight an inch or so one way and you miss the hole in the net for the t-post). We get the net up and then my second call to DSA, the question is “does the sign go on the inside of the trap or the outside???” Turns out we set it up inside out and just for your information the sign goes on the outside of the net, that was mistake number three!!! We swap it to right side out, now our hunting property is in central Georgia and it is August so I was sweating, I read the instructions to say that I need to condition the pigs with the net 1 - 3 “ vice ‘, mistake number four I read that the net should be 1 - 3 inches vice feet off the ground. We finish the set up dump 100 lbs of corn around the net, under the net and on the inside and go back to camp and later that night I am going over the instructions and realize my mistake. I am torn either go ahead and lose the night by fixing it at 11:00 PM or hope no pig gets caught in it. I go with the second choice and sure enough watching on our camera pigs are all around it, under it and in it first night. No pigs got trapped or scared at all by mistake.
I corrected the height the next day and put out another 100 lbs. Again, we were fortunate the hogs were not shy about the net at all it seemed. The most hogs I had seen in a single picture on our property was 13 so that was what we defined as success if we catch 13. Friday we set the trap.
We get a couple pictures early around 9 with hogs around it and then none for almost three hours (camera glitch) at around midnight we get pictures and the trap has quite a few hogs in it. I know one of Pig Brigs selling points is you don’t stay up all night to drop a trap however, I still stayed up most the night out of shear excitement watching pictures come in and trying to count hogs. I believe a majority went in before midnight, the last pig I saw go in was at 4:47 AM.
At daylight we head down to the trap, mistake number five, carry a bucket of bullets, we ran out and had to go back to camp to get more! Our pigs never calmed down and stared at me (like in the euthanasia video) and stood there waiting for me to shoot them in the head. Once done we had removed 20 hogs (two pregnant sows make it actually closer to 36). Mistake number 6, we had a friend coming up to help us get rid of them and our adrenaline was a little elevated having 20 pigs charging at you in a net, “trust the trap”, so we went to camp had a cup of coffee our friend showed up so no more than an hour went by and we go down to clean up the carnage and did it smell! My recommendation is to at least get them out of the net area immediately after.
We reset the trap but nothing the following night, took it down after a couple days with no pigs so I hope we got all in that immediate area. We took the trap down and pressured washed it to clean it up and now have it set up in conditioning phase on another area of the property where I know we have at least 10 more.
Mistake number six, I posted the picture on Facebook “Pig Brig Owners Group” immediately after we dispatched them, I recognized my mistake while going through the site that there is an etiquette to lay the catch out for the picture!!!
Guy’s I know $2,500 is real money however, if you have a pig nuisance get it before you have a pig problem. We spend around 6k a year feeding deer (that is corn and protein not including the plots the pigs destroy) I know we will actually save enough money in feed to pay for it in one to two years!!!
About a week and half after the trap arrived Ryan from Pig Brig calls me. Said he saw the post and it was a great catch that he was just following up after my purchase to see if I had any issues!!! We talked for quite a while and he gave me some great advice. If you set this trap the way they lay out in the instructions THIS THING WORKS, trust the trap!
Seriously considering a second trap because I live so far away when I do go up I can deal with twice as many in the same amount of time.
Hope this helps someone!
Russell G.
Even works under water. lol
Such a simple, effective design.
I'm still mad that I didn't think of it, first!
Steven M.
I followed the directions and I conditioned for 4 nights and set trap last night. Worked like advertised. Still have several more groups to trap. Great system!
Deaver M.
Works exactly as advertised. Simple to set up. Effective. The follow-up from the customer service team has been great.
Count me as very satisfied.
Barry C.
I had a good friend tell me about the Pig Brig and after looking at the web site and videos I decided this was what I needed to try and stop my wild hog problems on my land. After talking to Clay at the company I purchased the XT trap system with sewn in boar shield and top cap. Started feeding or conditioning hogs while waiting for trap to arrive which came very quickly. Set up a trail camera near feeding area and could not believe number of hogs on bait. Set trap up on Friday with a friends help by following the great set up instructions and continued feeding and conditioning hogs to enter trap. Following Monday afternoon I set trap for capture. Tuesday morning at daylight we headed to field where trap was set. As we approached we could hear pigs moving in trap and we could not believe what we saw. Trap full of pigs trying to get out but no way with Pig Brig. After shooting all in trap there was a total of 35 hogs on first catch. Am VERY happy with this trap system and also the great customer service. I know where my land is there are more but right now for the first time in 20 years, I am not seeing my land destroyed. Thank you Pig Brig. B. Collins Central Georgia.
Brian T.
You need a gate in them so removal of animals is easy. Now you have to crawl under netting to remove and that’s not ok
Stormy M.
Love that it is continuous catch and that no cell service is needed because cell service is so hit and miss. In our experience so far it doesn't take long to get the hogs used to the trap and we are catching them shortly after setting it.
Jamie V.
Great trap, wonderful service, and great people. Reccomend to all my friends.
Kelly
Unboxing to catching Hogs in a week. Can't get better than that. Set up was easy. Bait the trap, condition for a couple days, catch the hogs. Worked like a charm.
David J.
The Pig Brig is an awesome product that works. Set up was easy. The first time I set the trap I caught 13 with a 6 day condition time. Caught 3 more in this same location a week later. I wish I would have come across this system sooner!
Nathan W.
Easy setup. We’re catching hogs!
Kirk G.
We’ve been chasing these four for several weeks. They were real skiddish. Trap had been set for 5 nights without them showing up. Patience paid off last night!
Alan B.
I baited the area I had planned on testing it for a week before it was delivered. I kept it up for a week letting hogs feed under it. The first night the Net was done I removed 3. The next night 4. Then I tied it up for two nights. Then lowered it again. Caught 8 more that night.
I had no problem setting it up for operation. Just follow the detailed instructions provided. It works just as advertised. I already have another location baited for the next setting.
DAN W.
So far we have set the trap and are in the acclamation phase. Our pigs are shy and only occasionally visit, so we have soaked corn to keep deer and raccoons from eating all of it. Waiting for pigs to become comfortable.
Trap was easy to set up. Very satisfied.
Russell G.
I was skeptical, but decided to try it. It took a couple of weeks to get the first batch of pigs conditioned to the trap. I set it on a Friday afternoon with 4 bags of corn inside.
In two hours, I had pigs entering the net. By Saturday morning, there were 11 pigs in them.
When I walked up to shoot them, they went nuts trying to get out. The simple net designed absorbed the energy with no problems.
I put more corn in it and started the conditioning phase over and two more were eating under it. that very night!
I am impressed. Every possible issue I thought I might have was addressed in the instructions and the attention to every detail has been engineered into the trap.
Norihiro K.
The setup process was straightforward and easy to follow, looking forward to the results and capturing numerous feral pigs.
Jon M.
Excellent Trap, simple but very effective. Customer service is top notch.
Mike A.
Easy to set up, easy to condition the pigs to come into the trap, easy to set the trap and capture entire sounder! Cost is 1/3 of a steel trap and you don't have to stay up all night watching your phone to know when to shut the door. Love the Pig Brig.
John S.
Pig Brig trap is easy to move and set up. Its one of the best and most effective way's I have found to catch pigs
Eufaula, AL
Incredible solution to feral pigs. Simple to set up with one person and you do not have to check your phone all night in order to close the gate at the right time as with my other trapping experience. I caught the entire sounder of 16 on the first set which included 4 sows over 300 lbs and the trap held them all night. I could not be any happier.
Christopher T.
Customer service is outstanding. Had issues with site selection due to large amounts of mud. The Tony took the time to discuss and give solutions. Trap is amazing, especially when you can't get a truck and or a trailer into the deep woods. Packs up easy on a 4 wheeler. Goes up fairly quick. Liked it so much I bought a second one a week after taking a whole sounder of 14 out. 10 out of 10 would buy again.
Edgar M.
This trap is the way to go for catching any size feral swine and getting a full night of sound sleep. It doesnt require all the preconditioning other rigid panel traps do and the 260 lb boar had never seen it before he went in and even caught 3, 180lb boars another 180lb boar with 4 pigs while turned inside out due to operator error which allowed 260 boar to rip hole in main net and get out, come back in 2 days later and go out same hole, flipped net inside in and 3 days later he went in and came out dead. Tony and Vickie are the best and most helpful people in the hog trapping business and stand behind their traps.
Eric S.
Blown away with the effectiveness of my new Pig Brig Pro! I’ve had it for 1 month and already caught 45 pigs on our family property in Alabama. We were infested with pigs and they were starting to really hurt our deer and turkey hunting and habitat management efforts.
Equally impressive is the customer service that comes with the Pig Brig. Clayton “held our hand” until we figured everything out and continues to offer advice. Cannot recommended enough that you get one.....TODAY!!!
Scott M.
Had a great experience trapping my first sounder. Tony was a great cheerleader and became a friend as we text almost every day discussing all sorts of hog issues. You absolutely can’t get a better customer service. This trap is simple to setup and take down with very little tools to use!! Get you one and share in the fun of getting rid of these pests and eating very well also!!

When I first heard about the system, it seemed to good to be true. After talking to a landowner in a neighboring county about his success; I called and visited with Tony about his product. He undersold the product! We now have ordered another trap and rotate our 2 Pig Brigs between 6 stations. The stations are inexpensive and easy to set up-moving the nets between stations takes one man 45 minutes. We started in early January of 2021 and as of this date (April 22) we have captured 103 total. This does not include approximately 40 pregnant sows which did not have a chance to "gift" us with another 100-300 pigs!
BEST FERAL HOG ELIMINATOR ON THE MARKET

I have never trapped hogs! I bought this trap after reading the reviews and talking with Vicki. We set up the trap with Tony's help on the phone and it worked perfectly! We caught 13 hogs the first try. No issues with the pigs getting out - its strong! We will reset the trap because we have several herds that pass through our property. We are hoping to catch all of them! Thank you Tony for this easy ingenious way to trap the hogs!

Works as advertised! The pigs entered during the prepping phase on day 5. I set it on day 9. Got all of them! Also, Tony's personal service is second to none. Their product and expertise is at the highest level.

The trap works very well we caught 6 the first time out and 9 the next time. We are just trapping on our properties, soon as turkey season is over we plan to get back at it. We use the trap along with cell cameras so we can see when they come in so we can dispatch them as soon as possible.

The trap works as advertised. Easy set up and it holds the pigs. I caught 11 hogs with the first trap set. Easier than I imagined getting rid of the hogs once captured. I have moved the trap with no problem. I got ten more T-posts and only moved the net. No need to stay up at night watching pigs go through a gate. Brilliant idea. Kudos to Tony!

Vickie and Tony were excellent from start to finish! Before buying this trap I had tons of questions. Everything they have said has been right on with how to set the trap up to how it works. You also have someone call you after buying the trap to assist your further in the future if you have any questions. I am a trapper and have owned hog traps before. But for me this trap catches hogs that are normally trap shy and will catch an entire sounder and then some. Can't say enough good things about this trap. It's definently outside the box thinking. Buy one and you won't be disappointed!

The pigs started going into the trap around 8 pm, and now the whole group is there (11 pm). This trap is so much better than my camera controlled gate traps. We've been waiting for this system.

I have been trapping feral hogs for residential, commercial, municipal and industrial customers on the Texas Gulf Coast since 2013 as an add on service to my primary Pest Control business. The Pig Brig Trapping System's ability to continue catching on and on and the net material walls makes it the most versatile and best option for me in the future. I LOVE IT!!!

I am a retired wildlife biologist (32 years service) with the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources. In the piedmont region of SC, where I live and work, feral swine populations have reached all-time highs. My neighbors and I have used various methods to kill pigs and reduce their damage to our properties. Shooting, dogging and some trapping had not put a dent in the population. I was contacted by my friend, Tony DeNicola in December 2019 about our pig problem. He was fine-tuning a new concept net-type trap and needed a place to finish the design. I provided him with six locations on my neighbors and my property. The locations were far enough apart to target different sounders of pigs. Trail cameras were installed and monitored on all sites. Tony set up sites where he could use night vision technology to actively observe pig behavior in and around the traps. Some design adjustments were done and we were set. I am sure some of the pigs had seen standard steel paneled traps before. This new soft system does not cause any reluctance to trap entry. We were very successful in eradication of pigs in the areas we trapped. Tony left a trap for me to use when he left. I caught two sounders in two locations. The trap is easy to transport on an ATV and easy to set up and take down with the aid of a t-post driver to put it up and a lever-action t-post puller to take down. The count of dead pigs went to 99.
