We had some boxes that didn't have the see through mesh compartment. And just wired the bait to the top and had no success. I am not saying that the box was the reason it just kinda worked out that way. I stole the idea from the trapping rendevous martin seminar. The instructor ( don't remember his name) very smart fellow had a box that was similar with the mesh compartment and a see through hole in top. I also used the trap holder on them so I know it is set and stable. I am also not a martin expert and I am not sure if it snowed the boxes would be great or not. More experimentation.
