# Disabling Traps with Triggers

![](/files/-MW5-th7sAi7T92_t9QQ)

To create a game object that can disable an already active trap, use a [Trigger](https://deadlydocs.runemarkstudio.com/traps/triggering-a-trap) to control player interactions.

* Assign the trap component.
* Set Action to Disable, and the cooldown greater than 0 (to avoid fast repetitive action).
* Set Tag filter to Player.
* Interaction to Key Code, usually E. 
* Set Events if you want to show or hide UI, spawn particles such as sparks or audio when the action happens.
