I have affixed the nut onto the trap using copper wire. While I am reasonably sure that El Diablo can chew through this, I am also sure that he will trigger the spring if he does. I replace the trap in the attic, and as I do, I sense he is watching me from the darkness. I return to my control room and sit in front of the video monitor...and wait.
