The simplest way to get chips from your opponents is to just keep betting.

Traps usually work best against aggressive players. They don't work very good against tight players. Adjust your play according to who you are playing against.

Here is a simple one. 3 bet a raiser with 23os and hope the flop is A 4 5 rainbow. You're practically guaranteed villain will ship if it does. Of course, the other 92% of the time you're pretty much screwed.

Don't get obsessed with trapping liable to lose your bank roll if not careful.

Traps aren't made... they happen. "A good poker player does not make good hands happen. A good poker player recognises when they ARE happening and takes full advantage of the situation." UTG min raise, call, call, Highjack 3bet, And i'm on the button with 8 10s... going to the bank. maybe.

it depends on your table image. It depends on your opponent.
Can you get your opponent to ship if you check or show weakness?
Are you loose aggressive, mixing it up, getting involved in a lot of pots?
Generally it's hard to trap a good player.
"Traps" you are talking about are probably coolers.
set vs overpair
Nut flush over K flush
Boat vs Boat(or quads)
Depends on the stakes too. At the micro stakes, no real reason to trap. They will call you down with 2nd or 3rd pair. They will chase their draws.
Microstakes, when you have it, bet bet bet. When you don't have it, check.
Let aggressive players bet when you have the nuts. Against tight or passive players, bet them relentlessly.
Piece the hand together. Some fish will jam the river when they miss their draw.
3bet in position a lot perhaps. be prepared to fold marginal hands but eventually you're going to get AA KK or AK and blast them off.
Poker is so situational, really need more information about what traps you are trying to set
