A rodent trap includes a platform having a flat upper surface, a spring loaded trapping member pivotally movable between cocked and actuated positions, and a retaining arm pivotally mounted on the platform at one end thereof and adapted to hold the trapping member in a cocked configuration. A diverter is mounted on the platform and has a vertical wall portion formed with an open ended slot adapted to receive a free end of the retaining arm. The diverter also has a bait anchor tab extending forwardly and at an acute angle relative to horizontal and relative to the free end of the retaining arm when the retaining arm overlies the trapping member in the cocked position. The tab may also be curved in an axial direction to receive the free end of the retaining arm in nested relationship. The trapping member may include an added transverse member to insure trapping of smaller rodents.
