Duffus Trap Triggers.

[mazperks 18]

Some people say you should "camouflage" the trigger plate of a scissor trap with a layer of mud so the mole thinks he is just shoving soil.

Likewise does anyone do this with their Duffus triggers, I've never tried it, but I have a patch

with what seems to be pretty savvy blighters. They are filling both the Duffus and scissor traps.

I,ll give it a go, it cant hurt to try, but I expect every concievable way of setting has been tried before.

I think you are looking at the wrong reason for your traps being filled. Millions of moles are trapped every year using Duffus traps with unadulterated triggers.

Why bother?

 

If the trap is tuned correctly it should go off the second a mole touches it, with or without soil.

 

I never bother, and don't seem to struggle to catch them

That white one is a ringer. I hope the farmer didn't pay you for that one.

That's no way to talk about Florence the terrier

 

That was the pinnacle of my 35 years of molecatching. I'm off back to the same place in a few weeks, so fingers crossed for another

Too right

 

I charge for every one, regardless of colour, race, creed or sex...

 

I'm nothing if not unprejudiced when it comes to vermin

Its a shame there is not a market for mole skin/fur

Good luck and be sure to wear some flowers in your hair.

There's a thing Matt regards sexing moles.

Is it still legal down your way?

Only goats left on the list up here.

I've given some away to fly tyers for fishing, god knas what they do with them.

[Nicepix 5,650]

They pinch out some fur and then spread them along a length of waxed thread. When the thread is wound round the hook shank it makes the fly's body look hairy just like a natural fly.

I wondered how the fishermen actually utilised, them ? Thanks for this,....
