Trapping Tips
Boost your success rate with our possum trapping tips:
- Put the trap in the right place:
- around hen or poultry houses, wood piles, farm buildings, stock tracks; rabbit burrows; small animal pad runs or tracks that pass under fences; small drain pipes that run under roads; under trees where vegetation is short; shelter belts and hedges; stream edges, rivers and ponds
- look for sign, e.g. droppings.
- Consider when to trap – February to April is the proven optimal time to trap mustelids. But if bird life and poultry are in danger, trap immediately.
- Attach the trap firmly and correctly – look at the instructions for the trap you’re using.
- Attract the stoat, ferret, or weasel with a lure or blaze – use:
- an egg
- a blood trail to and around the trap site by dragging a dead rabbit or poultry carcass
- our lure range – either edible or smells (our solid lures attach onto the wire inside the trap).
