Dougie_fn12 Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 Been having some severe trouble lately with some squirrels in a garden that provides one of our permissions but the garden cannot be shot so set to work for a couple of hours with a couple of 110 Body Grips, all tunneled up and just a waiting game, ended with four in less than an our and plenty still there! One in the pic is soaked due to the dog dropping it in the water bowl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dougie_fn12 Posted February 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 what are body grips? traps? Yes mate they are by far the most humane traps ive come across, use them in tunnels so as they do not trap any un-targeted species and nothing gets away its instant!

Loki Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 (edited) Hiya All Bodygrips (or Conibears) are widely used in the US including for larger 'furbearing species' (such as Otter, Beaver, Fox etc). Designated by numbers eg 110, 220, 330 based on jaw size in inches. The 330 is about 9" square and has 2 springs (evil & dangerous to set unless you know how as wont just leave your hand/arm throbbing); 110 has a single. US Fur Fish and Game Magazine (on-line as well) details uses etc. Seems a shame that the 330 is not permitted in the UK (so I have been led to believe) for Fox. U-Tube will show some interesting footage............... Cheers Edited February 10, 2011 by Loki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
