We all know that pests have an uncanny way of sneaking around and avoiding capture. Creatures like rats and mice are not just a nuisance, but can carry diseases that are harmful to human health. People with children don’t want their cereal boxes and food supplies tainted with germs. The only way to prevent this is to eliminate the intruders. There are many ways to do this, including poison bait, traps, glue traps and sonic emitters. However, most of these systems practically torture the animals they capture. Sticky traps force the creature to starve to death while paralyzed. Poison slowly kills the animal over time. The only humane way to get rid of pests is to trap and release them. This can be done with the Havahart two-door cage trap.
The Havahart system uses a sensitive trigger to close two trap doors when a pest tries to eat the bait. Bait is placed on the sensor and the trap is laid out and placed in a suspected pest location. The pest can then be released into the wild away from your home. The spring loaded doors snap shut quickly, giving the pest no time to react. Smooth edges inside prevent the pest from getting hurt or caught. This is the perfect size for catching mice, chipmunks, voles and more. This device has gone through extensive testing to ensure a high capture rate. It’s extremely simple to use, even for people of non-technical nature.
The Havahart trap comes fully assemble and ready to use. While baiting is easy, the system comes with instructions on how to get best results. Simple food products like peanut butter and cheese are inexpensive and work as excellent bait. The animal is drawn into the cage and while attempting to remove the food, triggers the mechanism. The animal is allowed to enter from two directions, increasing the chances of them entering.
Keeping your back and front yards clear of debris can help deter pests. A healthy lawn without dry grass and dead plant material is best. A healthy lawn can be achieved by using a wormery to get nutritious compost. Composting is a great way to grow plants and help the environment.
