Features:
- Provides an instant and humane kill.
- Made from high-quality plastic and galvanised steel for years of use.
- Easy to bait and set, ensuring effective placement and quick results.
- The nano size allows for versatile placement, including tight spaces like kitchen counters.
Installation Instructions:
- Identify active rodent areas like attics, under floorboards, or near nesting materials. Avoid open areas unless using a protective device.
- Place bait, such as apple or oats for rats, on the food hook and inner cup. Ensure the bait doesn’t touch the trap body to avoid interference with the food hook motion.
- Check the hammer lock is forward. Pull the hammer bar back and lock it into place, ensuring fingers are clear of the kill zone.
- Hold the trap by the rear tower and place it in the identified area, a couple of feet away from nesting holes or activity.
- Scatter a small amount of bait near the trap to draw rodents closer.
- Check twice daily and remove any catches promptly to prevent trap shyness.
- To unset, press the trigger at the rear. Lubricate the mechanism regularly for smooth operation.
Tips for Success:
- Remove competing food sources before placement.
- For pre-baiting, scatter bait directly on the floor for a few days to familiarise rodents with the food, then introduce the unset trap before activating.
- Traps may be ignored initially (neophobia). Leave traps in place to allow rodents to adjust over time.
Safety Note:
Keep traps away from children and non-target animals. Use a protective cage outdoors to limit access.
