HOW TO TRAP BIG SMART RATS 🐀
Feb 10, 2023Your more than likely here because you have tried hard catching a big or very smart Rat that is in your property, and you just can’t get um huh?
Yes, we’ve been there too, it’s super frustrating isn’t it ?
Large Rats seem to be the smartest Rats, along with being smart, they are super neophobic, meaning, when they see new objects in their space they sense and stay away. So by placing a trap in the environment that their used to, more than likely you will never trap, no matter how & what bait you use.
One of the biggest issues we see when trying to trap a smart rat, is the trapping techniques.
1- The use of Glue boards, rats sense the danger and will
Never walk on a glue board. If they do, the strength they have to wiggle their way off is what we’ve seen 99% of the time.
So in our opinion glue boards are a waste of time.
2 - Setting, baiting & placing Rat Traps :
We see so often, way to much bait being placed on the bait pedal, traps not placed in the right areas, and the biggest issue is the improper Rat trapping techniques.
3 - Relying on Poison Bait black box stations : This is one of the biggest waste of money in the pest control industry, these boxes only work 26% of the time, most often in areas of massive rat infestation.
Hours of Monitoring with our rodent cameras, we’ve seen big smart rats NEVER entering inside those bait boxes.
BEST RAT TRAPPING TECHNIQUES YOU NEED TO KNOW :
After performing thousands of Rat trapping jobs, and the use of our monitoring cameras, these smart rats made us smarter and forced us to be innovative & creative.
HOW TO STOP SMART RATS FROM STEALING THE BAIT ?
We receive a lot of emails in regards to Rats stealing bait and people frustrated with not catching The Rats…
One of the biggest things we’ve seen on our cameras is their ability to lick the bait off the snap Traps slowly & delicately from the sides & back never deploying the Trap.
Another one is they deploy the Trap, but it catches their tail, or leg and they walk off with traps.
We’ve also seen these Big smart Rats escape the kill bar with their stoutness & quickness.
Well, Not anymore….
We created the Twins Rat Bait Tugger & Twins Rat Trap Hoodie. This deadly rat trapping combination has increased our catch Rate 68% in a property that still has entry & exit points
And 100% with sealing off all their entry & exits points inside a property.
