Thread: Decades of 1080….before and after

At work we get through about 30-40 DOC 250 traps per day. It gets time consuming when you do it properly (don’t touch the bait with hands, clean out the soupy hedgehog, grub the grass off the entryway of the trap but not too deep to leave a puddle) This is with a drive time of <30 minutes to sight. The running cost of an employee is ~$500 per day. (wages/vehicle/training/ppe etc) Servicing cost per trap per day works out at around $15.

I do about 50 a24 per day on my volunteering on my day off. That’s a pretty big day. Going from the above you could say $10 per service for A24 traps.

Transport to sight is often the biggest thief of time, if you’re not trapping close to the road the numbers above go out the window.
