Guest guest Posted June 9, 2002 Report Share Posted June 9, 2002 Help! I desperately need to get hold of a humane rat trap - does anyone have any idea where I might buy one (perhaps mail / internet order?) Thanks! Jane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 10, 2002 Report Share Posted June 10, 2002 Hi Jane, You can get them mail order from CAT (Centre for Alternative Technology) - £5.95. http://www.cat.org.uk (choose Green Shop -> Browse Full Catalogue -> House Hold Products or try this link but I'm not sure it will work because I suspect they use sessions).

Jane I asked that question a while ago and bought one (although for a mouse) from a site Lesley discovered, I can't remember where it was though, if do a search of the list then it'll be mentioned somewhere. Must be about six months back. The trap was a metal box with a clear plastic top which lifts up to release the mouse. Unfortunately it didn't seem to attract the mice, even with all the different food attempts to entice them. Only one ever entered, who I released into the park, but after a while the mice stopped visiting and I can only assume someone less humane got to them.

Guest guest Posted June 12, 2002 Report Share Posted June 12, 2002 It's at: http://www.trap-man.com/ BUT they also sell non-humane traps so they are not necessarily the most ethical place for Jane to get a trap from! I think Rob's answer was better (and cheaper), he was recommending the Centre for Alternative Technology. Lesley Mavreela [nec.lists] 12 June 2002 10:48 Re: HUMANE RAT TRAP >Help!
