Did anyone try out these new traps that catch them live?  Would be interested if they worked.

I find the shotgun pretty effective myself, but it takes a while to wait them out  :chuckle:

Do not say, Why were the old days better than these? For it is not wise to ask such questions.

Silly that there would be a regulation on how to trap a vermin. It's like saying you have to live trap mice/rats.

"Silly"  :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: Come On  :yike: :chuckle: :chuckle:
When I was in Business I use to have people call my office and ask if we would trap them alive and relocate them.  Yep "mice" ................. and rats!

We told them "NO" but some still wanted us to do it until we told them what we would charged  :yike:
and than for some reason they would always say: well I need to talk to my  :yike: "wife"  :yeah: to see what she wants to do  :bash: :bash: :bash:  :tup:  :chuckle:
JC   :hello:

 :chuckle: What a bunch of wusses. Vermin will always come back to some sort of building if relocated close enough. Heck I'd charge an extra $40 to drive far enough to drop off a mouse in the local woods.

I've heard these are the best, by far.  You can put two in one trail and bag one coming in from each side.

Yes those are ! A little tip is tie a string to it and tie it to something or sometimes you gotta dig the trap out

Just like Wolfdog said I have been using these for a couple years now and they work great the best I have used also the moles will be very active in February and March is their breeding time.  Look them up online at   Trap line products

Good Luck

That's what I do. I actually tie them together and leave some string showing from above the hole. And fill it back in with dirt. Best thing about these is you don't have to dig a giant hole in the ground to fit a trap. They fit nicely right inside the tunnel.

I bought some and did not tie off with a good string..  Was hoping for a Vole, Think it got a mole that dragged it down the hole.  Figure I will find it when I till the garden next year.  :(

I also have use Cinch traps.  Same concept but the spring part of the trap is much bigger so they cannot drag it off. Cost a little more but I don't lose them.

I am also interested in whether the live capture traps were working.
