PASSED NAWAC GUIDELINE
The BT200 Traps have been independently tested by the DOC founded research and development entity, Zero Invasive Predators, against the NAWAC standards. This trap killed rats and stoats in accordance with National Animal Welfare Advisory Committee guidelines every time to achieve a Class A rating.
These kill traps are fixed permanently to the bottom of a box which is specifically designed for targeted species. Tunnels channel the target species through holes in mesh and only allow entry of certain sized mustelid. This ensures non targeted species such as kiwi are not harmed, as well as protecting the public.
HOW TO SAFELY SET THE BT200 TRAP
In order to meet animal welfare requirements, the BT200 is a powerful trap. It is recommended that the trap is set with a specific setting tool (sold separately). For your protection, a safety bar (also sold separately) is then applied while the trap is baited. The safety bar can then be removed and the lid fastened to seal the top of the box. Ensure use of the safety bar any time you change the lure. We can supply you with the necessary equipment to make setting your traps easy and safe.
MAINTENANCE OF YOUR BT200 PREDATOR TRAP
Using quality materials in its construction has ensured that the BT200 kill trap is designed to deliver long and trouble-free use. This trap will provide many years of successful trapping provided that it is well cared for. Never activate the trap and allow the jaws to snap against each other as damage may occur.
