Found easy way to do this kill an enemy set a booby trap with s mine or teller mine then throw rock near dead body to lure guards over first make sure there are guards close enough to hear rock then save right before they blow up from trap then reload keep doing it until you get 100.

This is a good solution. I recommend doing it on the Abrunza Monastary mission. Right at the start, you're on a roof, and there's an enemy soldier packing from left to right on the street in front of you.
Kill him stealthily, trap him with an S-Mine, and then use rocks to lure the enemy directly to the west (that you can see on the radar on Easy). Just before the guy runs over, save, and then just reload the checkpoint after explosion. Make sure to turn trap cameras off in the options to make this go much quicker. You can probably have this in five minutes.

I did this using the first enemy closest to you at the start of the Abrunza Monastery Mission. You should be able to get this within 5-10 minutes. Note: Wait until you see 'Booby Trap Kill 25XP' message at the bottom right of the screen before clicking restart checkpoint. If you restart the checkpoint too quickly, that kill won't count.
You can see my method in the video below:

Great video, No idea why you have a negative vote on this one! Thumbs up from me...
One thing I would say for this maybe to add into your guide, you can view how many 'Kills' you have with traps in the 'Service Record' and then scroll down to 'medals' and on the first page it's on the second row.

Thanks for the upvote. I probably got a downvote because in the video, I was a little too quick. But it was showing the method.

Target Führer DLC only.
Before you start the mission, make sure you have the teller mine equipped.
As soon as you're in the facility where Hitler is, find him, then follow him around from a distance making sure you stay undetected.
you'll want to follow him until he reaches the stage. After he has finished talking on stage he will walk off in the direction you were following him in. This is when you want to place the mine in a good position, he has loads of guys around him too, so this is your chance to kill them all with the mine.
What you want to do is Manual save just before he steps on the mine, then as soon as the mine goes off it should kill him and 4 to 5 other guys causing a chain reaction, as there are also explosive barrels in the area! Then after they are killed re-load the manual save and repeat.
These clip shows how its done:
If you're unsure on if the mines going to kill all of them you can change the mine from a single step explosion to a double step by holding
and hover over the mine to change it.
You can even put a second mine on the other side of the wall to kill the other group of people who walk in you're direction.

Alternatively if you play a lot of Survival, and you're proactive about planting traps to protect the supplies and doorways, you can easily pickup 20-30 kills over a 12 round session, play multiple sessions and you could get this in a single days play, I've only played 2 survival sessions and completed the campaign and have 66 trap kills, 80% of these from survival mode.

Required: DLC Deathstorm Part 2
with this solution you can get 12 landmine kills in mere seconds and the setup isn't too bad either.
During the Deathstorm Part 2 DLC one of the optional objectives is to eliminate the Valkyrie Squad.
I recommend playing on easy and equipping 2 landmines before starting the mission, if you havent unlocked the two landmines yet there are 2 landmines nearby you can grab instead.
After the game loaded stick to right side of the map and make your way north you should be able to sprint/stealth your way up there without too much resistance.
When you enter through the huge gate east of the objective you can see stone stairs with 1 landmine at the bottom and if you walk up the stairs there is another landmine just outside the radio station from where you have to call the Valkyrie Squad later.
After clearing out the area a little, place both landmines on the bridge leading into the castle. Configure the landmine further east to explode when triggered the second time and leave a decent space between the two, this way both halftracks will be destroyed.
Now go get the radio codes from the safe in the Tavern and make your way to the radio station.
I recommend you make an additional save here so you can tweak your landmine placement in case you don't get both halftracks with mines.
Next call in the Valkyrie Squad and immediately after that make your way to a nice spot in order to watch the show.
Last make a manual save right before the halftracks cross the bridge so you can reload this one later.

On the 3rd dlc just before you blow up the bunker about 5 enimies will come up a lift, put a body in front of the lift and place a trap, manual save it then destroy the bunker and when they come up the lift you will get 5 kills, rinse and repeat

I would suggest going to the level you feel most comfortable with, unlocking S-Mine or Teller Mines then sneaking around the while map and any areas that are chock-points (Where NPCs are likely to walk through) plant a mine of your choice. Just don't be too close when the NPC is about to walk over it.
I would also suggest just planting as many mines as you can find, make a manual save then hideout somewhere away from where you planted them (Or make a manual save after you have hidden) and wait till at least 50-75% of the mines planted have gone off then reload. Then it's just a waiting game. :)

First off, head to the player loadout and purchase the S-Mine. From here load up any mission you fancy and kill the first enemy you see (not blowing your cover). Make a save proceed to booby trap the enemy you just killed with the S-Mine then make a save. Throw the body into an open space so that the other guards see it to investigate only to suffer the same fate. Load up your save rinse and repeat.
It's far easier this way since you'll unlikely unlock this during your story run through.
A great way to grind this out is to load the map San Celini Island. Once you get past the first 3 guards continuing sprinting until Karl says "That tower looks like a good vantage point". From hear get the truck to see you, then plant an S-mine by the ammo box to where the truck parks. Quickly run away a tad and make a save. From here, you will just be exploiting the save feature. If done right, you should be getting 4 kills per load.

Trip Mines, S-Mines and Teller Mines are considered traps. Just set one of these traps and wait for an enemy to walk into it. Do this 100 times in any game mode to unlock the achievement.
A good method to get this out of the way is to make a manual save just before an enemy is killed by your trap. Once they are, just reload that save and keep repeating until the achievement has unlocked.
