The placing and size of that trap makes it very odd to catch a squirrel, it was too high over the passage below, the size of the loop was also too big for a squirrel. It was indeed set up to catch people
It was likely one of many other traps they had set up beforehand to catch whoever was going to follow them. The more the better.
You may also be right about the place not being visited often, but it could also have been that they had setup the traps the day before, so there wasn't a lot of time to allow someone to randomly fall into them.
Though maybe some days had passed until they had caught Shiraishi.
