All the traps specify which animals they catch. One Amazon.com page* shows

Wouldn't this one trap catch all size animals that are too big to get through
the mesh?

Yes, if they are also heavy enough to trip the trigger. The way
they are set up, the weight of the door holds the trigger in place-
the bigger the trap, the heavier the door.

Also note that relocating wildlife is illegal in most places. [and
beside the legality- why just drop your problems on someone else's
property?] You can probably get a permit to kill nuisance animals-
or let an animal control officer take of them.
