More Information

 

    • About A18 Trap: The future of grey squirrel control. Powered by a CO2 cylinder, the trap attracts the target species with a dedicated, long-life grey squirrel lure. When the Grey Squirrel enters the tunnel of the trap to get to the food source, it activates the trigger which is located at the back of the tunnel. This trigger activates the trap, instantly dispatching the squirrel humanely and efficiently.

 

    • Placement and installation: When looking at placing the trap into woodland, parkland or your garden, we recommend choosing an established broad leaved tree, fence or post that sees regular grey squirrel activity. Once installed as per the quick start guide, a couple of handfuls of peanuts, sunflower seeds or maize, scattered at the base of your chosen tree will help to create a feeding area that grey squirrels associate with food. This can be repeated on a weekly basis, to build the grey squirrels confidence and visit the area regularly

 

    • Hazelnut Lure and Food: The Hazelnut lure provided with the trap is a good starting point for most environment’s; its long life and hazelnut base remain attractive to grey squirrels for extended periods. Like all trapping though, we see seasonal changes in diet and feeding routine. Should you wish to try a different food in the trap, such as peanut butter, crushed walnuts or hazelnut butter, this can easily be done using the provided lure basket.

 

    • Non-target species: As with any trap, it is vital we do all we can to limit non-target interaction with it. Our A18GS humane squirrel trap has an entrance tunnel of only 5.4cm, the smallest entrance of any squirrel trap currently available in the UK. We have hundreds of hours of footage that monitored the interaction of the grey squirrel, during this time, no birds or non-targets interacted with the trap. Tree Creepers, Nut Hatches, Tits and Woodpeckers were seen in the back drop, but not near the trap. Be mindful of non-target species such as Dormice, Pine Martens and Red Squirrels; with these species present, we do not condone the use of our A18Gs or any other lethal trap. If they are present, live traps such as a squirrel cage trap will enable any non-target species which is caught, to be released without harm.

 

  • Siting: Placement will depend on your setting: an urban garden, young compartment, or established woodland. Squirrels will use trees to move through areas, then climb down them to forage and feed.A good starting point is a mature tree with an interconnected canopy that allows them to access it from other trees, fences, or structures. Often, a squirrel will feel trapped if chased up a tree, which has no means of escape. In addition, squirrels will generally avoid undergrowth for fear of predation, so the base of the chosen tree should be clear and the vegetation short.
