Mole-catching is a testosterone-fuelled and very serious business. You have to be tough to tackle a mole(a big male can reach seven inches and tear a worm apart in seconds!),and defend your methods,tr

Why do you ask ? ? (& my seller rebuts that his Putanges are fake ! ,.....& Mr Kenyon, seemingly finds the stainless even better than the standard ones. Apparently, alot of folk have learned from him , off You Tube, etc , (& on THL !)......& my sellers feedback from customers, was almost 100% satisfied, .....ive observed ?),.......but maybe you should be the new 'go too ' guy for tuition & advice, etc , regarding the Putange ?  lol.  (who knows ? ?)

I asked for a free sample trap, & was kindly obliged,.......& that's correct, i wasn't keen on it, therefore didn't place an order.  (oh wait a minute,......you don't think that's them in my photos there , do you ? lol)

What you have there are not genuine putange

if you want genuine putange there is only one person in the country that sells them

You could buy a smaller amount to try them but not expensive if there the correct thing

Caught too many by the belly ( and yes I did tweak the tunnels before anyone has a go !) the last straw came when I walked past a fired trap . I went to my furthest point and picked traps up on my way back.. 20 mins before I got back to that fired trap and when I lifted it the mole was still alive and caught round the belly. I control pests but try to do it humanly IMO the tunnel trap isn’t humane.
