we used to have mesh on the block end!!!! a never did know why!!!!
when the seagulls follow the trawler...it is because they think sardines will be thrown into the sea!!!!

you want the far end to be high than the entrance and the far end should have mesh on it so then the squirrel or rat will see light and this is what intices them in.

I think I can probably help a little with this. As Kobidog says the 'closed' end needs to be high enough so that there is a clear view through when the see-saw is set.

I haven't quite got posting pics sorted yet but there's loads of detailed information on my website here
