I watched same show Dundee..the cat lady was classic..and you can GUARANTEE if all cats had to be neutered and kept inside she would be letting them out and still breeding them.

the photos above show the good the bad AND the ugly of trapping...a bi catch of a bird is unusual but not unheard of...a cat with long leg is same.... the fens shown have caught as they are supposed...
we had a few ferrets eaten in traps...then I caught a BIG ferret...how the heck it managed to get head into and over trip plate of doc250 was surprising...I have cut the square in mesh larger by one...
I believe anything getting eaten is eaten by stoat/ferret I had couple of ferrets eaten then caught a HUGE ferret....maybe make up a double set box eg trap at each end or place dead rat in back of...
if neighbour is releasing HH...its time to set a DOC 250 ....release is problimatic when they are used....
tie piece of cotton around and around through peanut butter and under plate...drip of bacon grease of two on bait wont hurt either... I reckon the rodents teeth catch the cotton and trigger trap....
Ive used dry burley pellets from warehouse...look like big turkey turds...they worked. a simple ping pong ball works too.... its said they think its an egg and go for a look.still got one plastic egg...
your rats look much better than the ones Ive caught here in town...3 so far...2 in last week,the ears are all scabby and cauliflowered almost like front row prop and tail all scaly too...dirty huas...
I sure hope you rubbed its smelly bum all around the trap.......that will often get its mates...we managed 5 stoats in a week from same trap that way.
yes the ping pong ball is purely a visual thing....but Ive caught enough hedgehogs and mustilids to proove they work...particularly for a lazy bugger who doesnt check traps often enough.
sore head...try a ping pong ball.....they work just as good as an egg and dont go off.....havent tried a golf ball yet but they SHOULD work in windy area,would definately need the ol 3 nail cradle...
