LUNA Wühlmaus-Zangenfalle mit Spanngriff

Mole trap VoleX (Yakee) galvanised, equipped with two tension brackets on the top side. Thanks to the sturdy tension brackets the trap is easier to set.

Tips for placing the YANKEE Super trap:
Moles first create a so-called ring tunnel around the plot. This tunnel remains the mole's regular route for moving around. From the ring tunnel the mole makes runways in different directions, taking it further into the plot. The mole will use these runways regularly, so this is a suitable place to set a mole trap. You can check whether a runway is in use by pressing it closed and checking the next day whether the mole has reopened it.

Place the mole trap in a straight section of tunnel, as close as possible to the ring run when possible. Are the runs too deep? Then place the trap in the ring run.

Carefully open the tunnel and then remove all loose soil. Place the trap in the opening and check whether it can close easily. Set the mole trap and place it in the tunnel. If desired, test whether the trap can easily snap shut.
Always place the set trap with the setting pin at the top, angled in the tunnel so that the setting plate is at an angle of about 135 degrees. Close the opening by sprinkling some loose soil around the trap and cover the area with, for example, pieces of turf or leaves.

Check the mole trap daily! Remove a caught mole as quickly as possible and always immediately reset the trap. This is because the tunnels are often used by multiple moles. No mole caught after three days? Then the tunnel is almost certainly no longer in use. Check other tunnels for activity and move the trap to a tunnel that is still being visited. Always clean the mole trap thoroughly after use with a stiff brush and store it in a dry place.

Moles have a very keen sense of smell, so it is advisable to wear gloves when handling and placing mole traps. Generally, a property contains up to 15 moles per hectare. In some cases, this can even rise to 25 to 30 moles.
