It ain't much, but its a start . . . .

Had this little bugger in my lean-to for a few days, so out with the trap today and Bob's your uncle

 

 

Now that I'm a competent trapper (ahem, as competent as I have to be to post on a forum ) it's time to move on to the rat under my neighbours coal bunker. First I'll make my trap, then I'll catch the critter - pics will follow

 

[dave h 1]

were you get that trap from it looks to set better more sensative than mine

[Crow 1]

It is very sensative, and of course the sensitivity can be adjusted by using a bigger bit of cheese

 

I brought the trap today (£2.99), although I'm going to make a few up as they look easy enough.

Crow; If ye can buy those things for 2.99 and yet are even contemplating making the buggers? You most definately must qualify as the Man With MOST Extraneous Time On His Hands!

 

Anyway, good luck with the rat mate ..... Take ye time!

And where do you buy them at 2.99 ?

Ditch: Whilst I enjoy making things to do with hunting theres even a line I wont cross - so it will be rat traps I'll be making not mouse ones (I didn't make that clear ) but in the same style.

 

However, I did get the price wrong for the mouse ones, they weren't £2.99

 

They were £2.91

 

John B: I got them from Atlantic, based near Bungay. If you want their product code / tel number let me know.

that type of trap but for rats sells in their shop at Bungay in suffolk for 5.99 so i would query their price guide.

 

 

Crow as your brother is a pro traper why did you not think to ask him for help? im sure he would have droped his price to help you out?
