Oypla Humane Animal Rodent Rat Pest Trap Cage - Silver

Bait effectiveness varies by animal. Peanut butter, nuts, seeds, and small pieces of fruit are generally effective for rodents and squirrels.

It is recommended to check the trap at least twice a day, in the morning and evening, to ensure the animal's welfare and to promptly handle captured pests.

The trap is made of galvanised steel, which offers rust resistance. However, it's best to check the mechanism after rain and dry the trap afterwards to maintain its condition and functionality.

The dimensions of the trap are 61.5cm (length) x 19cm (width) x 21cm (height).

This trap is designed for ground-dwelling small animals like rodents and squirrels. It is not specifically designed or recommended for catching birds.

Clean the trap with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and allow it to air dry completely before storing or re-deploying.

Ensure the bait is placed correctly beyond the trigger plate. Check that the trigger mechanism is clean and moves freely without obstruction. Verify the door is properly set to be held by the trigger.

Confirm the door has fully closed and latched. Ensure there are no gaps or damage to the trap structure that could allow an escape. Check that the trigger mechanism is sensitive enough.

While made of rust-resistant material, clean and dry the trap thoroughly after each use, especially if exposed to moisture. Store in a dry environment when not in use.

This trap is designed for humane capture. Ensure the door closes smoothly and does not slam. Check the trap frequently to minimize stress on the captured animal and facilitate a quick release or relocation.
