Bolt Traps

[The one 8,397]

out of interest, why use these when you can use purse nets?

On the side of a road etc when you dont want the rabbits or ferrets getting out being seen and causing a accident .

My only problem with these is space transporting them and storing them out of season

Brilliant bit of kit the bolt trap I use them all the time .........

Generally I use them where the holes are in positions where it is very difficult to set a purse net. Under bramble bushes for example.

Good for this time of year or end of season for catching the little puff balls that would normally slip the net, for say in a sensitive area where you can't take the dog to snaffle them up : ) regards j ,

handy for the uses mentioned, but if your like me, useless making things, but they are expensive to buy,

Would they work attached to a type of sack or something rather than a rigid cage so they fit in a bag easier? Like the old stockings on a bean tin for rats.

I cant see why that wouldn't work. If you had a net sack attached instead of a full length bolt trap I suppose you could kill the rabbits without removing the trap from the hole.
