Vole Trap
- Pesticide free
- Environmentally friendly
- Reusable
Unique - Worldwide patented
Swissinno has created a trap that avoids the several shortcomings of other traps on the market.
Simple single-action setting in seconds: pull the sprung handle out to its limit, and the trap is set. Supersedes the complicated spring arrangements that are found in other traps.
Requires no great strength to operate, unlike other traps which need above-average strength to stretch their springs.
Fits neatly into a 6-cm diameter hole; it does not need the extensive excavations that other traps require.
Gives a clear above-ground visual signal when the trap has been activated … the handle drops back into the trap. Other traps require digging up to reveal whether they have made a catch.
Works in either direction in the tunnel.
Simple instructions
- Locate the underground 'run' with the probe; it will suddenly go into the ground easily when you find a tunnel. Ideally, the trap should be positioned where the tunnel is straight and level.
- Using the hole cutter with a twisting action, cut a neat vertical hole (6 cm (2½") diameter) down into the tunnel, plus an extra 2 cm (3/4") into the floor of the tunnel. Carefully, lift out any loose soil from the tunnel, or push it flat into the hole in the tunnel floor.
- Push the trap into the hole and carefully pull the sprung handle out to its limit. Scatter loose leaves or grass round the trap to block out draughts and light. The trap is now ready for action. Check the trap next day at the latest. You will often make a catch in only a few hours.
Accessory set (tunnel location probe and hole digger) are separately available.
