(We we’re On a farm). Now I’m fairly sure that someone is going to jump on this but the trap was barrel shaped. I’m guessing about 150 mm long and about 60mm in diameter. There was a hole in the top whereby fitted a wooden paddle which connected to a spring affair which, when dislodged, sprang two ring wires at either end of the barrel catching said mole. We had a lot of success with these traps. I’m fairly sure that there is a half barrel trap but once again I’ll leave it to the experts to explain. Fairly sure you’ll get some pics shortly. ATB.Jok.
