Victor Metal Pedal Rat Trap - 1 Trap M201 - Wood Rat Trap : Home Pest Control Traps : Garden & Outdoor

Description

1. Remove the arm bar from the staple. Move the arm bar to the back of the trap so it hangs over the back of the trap. 2. Bait the trap with a high-protein substance, such as peanut butter, chocolate or hazelnut spread. Place the bait on the metal bait pedal using a Q-Tip, toothpick or another tool to avoid spreading your scent. 3. Pull the kill bar back and hold it in place with your thumb. 4. Swing the arm bar over the kill bar and latch the bent end of the arm bar into the notch on the pedal. Slowly release pressure from the kill bar until the arm bar has fully engaged and holds the kill bar securely. 5. Place the trap wherever you’ve seen signs of rodent activity or along the wall where rodents like to travel. The baited end of the trap should be placed flush against the wall. For best results, place multiple traps at 2 to 3 foot intervals. Victor Metal Pedal Rat Traps are a time-tested solution for capturing the mice that have invaded your home or business. Rats are able to sneak inside buildings through tiny spaces where they can spread disease and destroy your property. Victor Metal Pedal Rat Trap M201 When rats take up residence under the kitchen sink, a rat trap is often required to evict the pesky visitors. Snap traps are thought of as the more humane lethal rat trap, killing rats quickly. Snap traps also don’t pose the health risks affiliated with rat poisons. The base of this snap trap is made from Forest Stewardship Council-sourced wood harvested from environmentally-monitored forests. The wood has been kiln dried and will not warp. The trap’s metal pedal has four releases for greater success in catching rats. The trap has a copper-steel wire bow. Two springs are oil-tempered for efficiency. For best results, bait the trap with a sticky substance. Rats are fond of peanut butter, fruit, meat, and cereal. Using several traps and placing them three feet apart in the rats’ foot path increases the chances of success. After catching a rat, Victor advises users to throw out the trap.
