1.) Insert traps in used tunnels that run as straight as possible and without any branching off. Neatly dig up soil approx. 10cm x 10cm. Remove loose soil from the tunnel.
2.) To catch voles, clamp a piece of bait (carrot, celery, potato) on the plate (a.). Do not use bait to catch moles. Press the handgrip (b.) together to set the trap and insert the bait plate in the middle of the trap (c.). Finally move the bait plate back and forth and slightly loosen it. This will set the trap for maximum sensitivity.
3.) Insert the trap carefully into the prepared tunnel opening and cover up again with soil. Usually several voles live in one tunnelling but only one mole.
