SteveieP 0 Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 (edited) [What] about the spring-loaded carrot? Rabbit bites into it & 2 bolts shoot out from either side. If it doesn't kill it outright, the bolts sticking out stop it running back down the hole He he. Joking aside, I can't see it would work but most interested to see if anyone else has even tried it Edited December 12, 2007 by SteveieP Quote Link to post

stork 1 Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 if you bait a cage trap with carrot`s they catch so why not put some out two days befour to let them get use to them and feed them it and hopefully when you go to shoot them they will be where your feeding the carrot.....only put it out at night else other vermin will only take it give it a go and tell us if it work`s Quote Link to post
