30-6 Posted January 5, 2023 Report Share Posted January 5, 2023 I was reading a description of how to set what we know as a putange mole trap, originally called something like arouze trap after the French town they were made. Instead of laying lengthways along the tunnel, they used to apparently be put vertically down in to the tunnel, if they had gone off could then be seen. Anyone felt the need to set in this way ?

enfieldspares Posted January 5, 2023 Report Share Posted January 5, 2023 I've got one, maybe two, somewhere about. If you want to make an offer I'll try and find them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
30-6 Posted January 5, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2023 I'm OK thanks, have all I need. If you mean the older models, the vintage trap collector should be interested. I think he is the owner of the company called fourteenacre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone felt the need to set in this way ? if you are setting them that close to the surface...you aint going to catch much.....the top galleries once dug arnt used much....the deep galleries are 6-9" deep and need to be located buy using a thin steel probe...
