Just been round the trap line with the lads we missed it last week (too busy fishing).
Amazing the difference a week makes...mostly just clearing rat fur from traps today.
I have charged them up with a whole heap of smoked snapper bones from last weekend so i reckon we will get a few inquiries this week
@Flyblown absolutly aggree with what you say above. We are running about 100 traps here & have owned the block for 6 years.
There has been a notable increase in bird life in that time. Pheasants, quail, ducks and natives also. It is a reasonable commitment but i have no doubt it works !!!
A couple of interesting things from today.
1. We picked this up, pretty sure its an Owl pellet, can often hear the little owl at night.
2. This trap was re gassed & lured about 2 months ago. I see it at least twice a week. I have not seen anything under it in that time yet the counter shows 9 strikes.
I am utterly convinced that as the ALP releases a droplet of lure (see that one on the tree below the trap) It knocks the trigger wire on its way past (i fail to see how it cant) recording a strike !?!
