what just scattered or stuck with melted Pnut butter?

you can smear a little peanut butter on the plate thats fine, then stick some nuts on and around that and bingo.

a squirrel in a loft should be used to eating off bird tables assuming theres other houses around so any sort of bird seed or peanuts should get him, but i have caught them with a corner off a peanutbutter sandwich out of my own lunch. i only use cages or the kania in lofts as sometimes however well set mk4s dont always kill cleanly and this maybe upsetting for the customer

they are a very good trap but it can happen that they dont catch correctly (maybe a very weary or fast squirrel) it doesnt happen often but it can happen.

i just believe if youre in someones house it is best to avoid this if possible as we all know how this sort of thing can be blown out of all proportion

cages once caught the squirrel can be taken away and dispatched and i have never had a live catch in a kania

and i have never had a live catch in a kania

 

I should hope not,

kanias are kind of beyond my price range for a couple of pesky squirrels as a favour, my live catch is sortyed now so i might try that, Same baits?

 

oh yeah and now the guy has a problem mole which has evaded his shoddy efforts so looks like the dufus i gonna have a run out (the trap not me)
