Double entry - tunnel trap for live capture of animals and pests. An excellent cat trap, possum trap, animal trap, magpie trap and pest trap for humane live capture of most animals. 

Particularly good for trapping, trap shy animals like rabbits. Also more likely to trap cats that have become trap shy, than other traps.
Size - 1000mm x 300mm x 300mm

Will trap most animals that will enter the trap including:
Cats
Possums
Ferrets
Stoats
Rabbits
Hedgehogs
Rats
Birds (sensitive enough to catch small birds, including sparrows, starlings and magpies. )
This is a fixed cage trap, no assembly required. 
Can be used with 1 or both doors open. 
Simply place the appropriate bait at the centre of the trip plate or at one end of the trap (if using 1 entry). 
Animals entering the trap stand on the trip plate, the drop down doors close immediately, trapping the animal. 
A small mesh size, along with a strong door locking system, prevents escape of the trapped animal. 
Strong and robust for everyday or professional use. 
The cage trap is made from zinc plated steel, then powder coated green for excellent rust protection.
The slide up doors allow trapped cats or other animals to be easily transferred to another cage or box.
THIS IS A FUNDRAISER FOR OUR NEW CHARITY.

THE FUNDS WE RAISE FROM THESE SALES PLUS THE REVENUE FROM OUR NEW CHARITY SHOP IN SILVERDALE, AUCKLAND WILL MEAN WE CAN OFFER LOW COST OR NO COST DE-SEXING AND MICRO-CHIPPING.
