FENN

one thing to remember all the squirrel works on sight not smell so what ever you do be it snare them or trap them the make the bait visible . i hang a mesh bird feeder full of maize on the center of the pole so they can see it .also i i use the maize behind the fenn and outside the set to attract there ?

Nice going Paul

i have tried all sorts in them but the best bait is fresh rabbit or pigeon guts .

Now now you know it will come back on you saying such things

Yes that is it on the bottom photo .i would have put a photo up myself but have no idea how too

What sort of lock do you use on the 1 mm wire. ? Bike link micky bike chain from wilkinson £3-£4 you get 150 locks out of one chain .just split the chain with a good link splitter then bend the links with two pairs of pliers so the run down the wire well .much cheaper than the micro locks etc I also use the link on the fox wires .Holds them no trouble at all .

How uch do they work out as mate, where ye get em from? I make all my wires myself .i get the wire from Handy straps for the ferrules i use 2mm nuts and 3mm .As for the lock i use a bike chain link .. as per cost per wire i couldn't tell you never gave it a thought lol but i tell you i find them much better than the brass because you can load them to be very quick as with fox snares . I get great enjoyment of catching with stuff i make myself rather than buying off others. If it all goes wrong then you have no one to blame but yourself

Make some up out of 1.5mm 7x7 wire .rabbit will not snap those also if you have a fox in them then he will be sitting waiting for you also .Gave up on the brass wires myself and now only use 1.5mm or 1mm wire . Thankfully the brass wire is a thing of the past for me lol . All i need now is some rabbits to populate wales

Try handy straps .They have just about everything i need for such things .

personally i would set up a pole between the house and them trees with a wire bird feeder filled with maize in the middle of the pole .Then i would get some snares on the pole and watch them hang one by one

Ha Ha micky that would not bother me one bit

Just as mr tea pot said but i would have added a fox wire or two along the run also lol

I use the Wolf garden trowel never lets me down and lifetime guarantee bit expensive at around £10 but you get what you pay for .
