The simplest trap a player can use is a Mouse Trap, which can be found in the world. The player can also use their Trapping skill to create traps, if it is high enough and if they have learned the crafting recipes. Player-made traps include [[Snare Trap|Snare Traps]], [[Stick Trap|Stick Traps]] and [[Trap Box|Trap Boxes]]. The trap needs to have Bait added to it to be effective. Traps can also break or go off without trapping an animal inside. Traps are only effective in the wilderness, where there are no zombies around. [[Zombie|Zombies]] are also attracted to traps with animals in them.

Trapping is a Survivalist skill in Project Zomboid. It allows the player to use traps to catch animals, which can then be butchered and used as food.

Usage

The simplest trap a player can use is a Mouse Trap, which can be found in the world. The player can also use their Trapping skill to create traps, if it's high enough and if they have learned the crafting recipes. Player-made traps include Snare Traps, Stick Traps and Trap Boxes. The trap needs to have Bait added to it to be effective, which determines what type of animals you will catch, if they can be caught with said trap. Traps can also break or go off without trapping an animal inside. Traps are only effective in the wilderness, where there are no zombies around, and zombies are also attracted to traps with animals in them.

Creating a trap requires the required materials and/or tools in your main inventory and click either the material or the tool to make it. You will also need to learn the recipe for the trap from a skill magazine in order to know how to craft them. Experience for Trapping is increased when a player collects an animal from the trap, if something has been caught.

Times when animals may get caught in a trap:

  • Rabbit or Squirrel: 1900 to 0500 (7:00 PM to 5:00 AM)
  • Bird, Mouse, or Rat: Any time

Occupations & Traits

The Park Ranger occupation gives a +2 to the Trapping skill, along with a +2 to Foraging and +1 to Carpentry. The Hiker and Hunter traits both provide a +1 to Trapping, while Hiker provides a +1 to Foraging, and Hunter gives a +1 to both Aiming and Sneaking.
