PLEDGEY 495 Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 Tunnel traps, AKA , duffus or barrel traps. Find run, set trap, place trap, lightly sprinkle soil over the top, job done!. If i think walkers may be going near the traps i spray a big yellow dot on the ground ten feet from the trap with road marking paint (tool hire shops sell it). You can only see the mark if you are right by it and even the it means nothing to the person looking at it, but you know your trap is ten foot away from it. Quote Link to post

andy p 32 Posted February 4, 2012 Report Share Posted February 4, 2012 I'm not knocking them I set them with my duffus traps and the moles always seem to end up in the duffus first I like the idea of the traplines tho nice and small Quote Link to post
3175darren 1,100 Posted February 4, 2012 Report Share Posted February 4, 2012 andyp Make sure you lift the back end up, and push the front tynes into the bottom of the run,which will just cover them they are a very good trap, take a bit of time its worth it, I catch a lot of moles in them best of luck Darren Quote Link to post
andy p 32 Posted February 4, 2012 Report Share Posted February 4, 2012 I'll wait till next job and just use traplines I'd like to get familiar with using them Quote Link to post
swanseajack 227 Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 Yellow sheep marker !!! safe with animals.. randomly mark your traps and hills with X's, circles or straight lines or whatever, you will know which marks represent the traps, and it confuses the nosey ones.
