Attenkofer-style wire trap

• Wire trap with entrances on both sides for capturing voles
• Base frame and trigger mechanism made of galvanised steel wire with corrosion protection for long-term outdoor use
• Spring made of galvanised spring steel wire for high and sustained impact even after multiple use

Tips:

• Voles are rarely found alone and they dig tunnels several kilometres long. Locate the tunnels from the mounds of earth and remove these. Then open the tunnels down to a depth of around 20–30 cm. Check the openings after around 24 hours. If the tunnel is closed up again, it’s an inhabited tunnel. Open the tunnel again and position baited traps in all inhabited tunnels. Use several traps to make sure you capture the voles.
• Voles are drawn to vegetables (carrots, potatoes, celery, etc.). Do not use animal products as bait. This prevents you from capturing moles by mistake.
• You must wear gloves when setting and positioning the trap – voles have a very sensitive sense of smell and might be warned off by the human scent. Wearing gloves also prevents injuries!
