Matt 160 Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 Like I say Le Brac, each to his or her own. What you describe as 'pratting about' is me spending a few hours every summer going through my traps and checking them over. The dip costs less than a tenner, and for that, I can dip around 500 mole traps. Quote Link to post
Probuk 93 Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) I get near 100% catch rate with genuine Talpex traps. The way I see it is that after the effort of finding and preparing to set a mole trap why not give yourself the best chance of catching a mole with the best trap you can get. I change per mole and once one of my traps catches a mole which is usually within the first 48 hours its already paid for itself and my quality traps with last for many years and so go on paying for themslves. I take the customer around with me which inspecting my traps so a high catch rate always impresses them, makes me look professional and in turn gets me many referrals for more work. I guess if you are only catching for yourself you afford to go cheap and miss moles whereas I look for value for money and often that means buying the best to be the best. http://i1245.photobucket.com/albums/gg585/probuck2/018-2.jpg These are the traps im using at the moment...the cheap scissor traps i got off ebay is the one in the centre.
