UPDATE: I set 12 of these traps in my yard, in mole tunnels. I was left the traps undisturbed for a few days. Tonight I started digging up the traps. I caught a HUGE mole! He was 5.5 inches long, and was rather pudgy. I was so proud of myself. So far 2 small moles using the mousetrap with peanut butter trick. And the Grand Daddy was caught with a trapline trap. I am hoping I have them all! IF not I have the traps. Thanks TrapLine!
I got a set of these. They work awesome, I did have to get the location correct before I caught the mole, but I only had one mole and I have a large yard. I bought two and put them facing opposite directions in the tunnel so no matter which direction the mole came from I would have a trap waiting. THANKS!!
It worked! I bought 2 of these traps from the trapline website, and just had a catch today.
These traps are the bomb, SO much better than your average hardware store scissor kind. I am ordering 4 more.
Thank you for the demonstration video. I just got these traps in the mail and never would have figured out the written instructions.
your welcome
Best mole traps ever made. I own 4 of them. Last year I trapped 7 moles in my garden with them. Just FANTASTIC!
These work great. I was skeptical, but I bought 8 traps and have probably caught 50 voles so far.
I have encountered some voles that are very smart and push the trap out the hole and then fill it in with dirt. I haven’t figured out how to fix that yet.
I have not used my traps in a while until yesterday, keep loaning them out, and have to buy more as they never come back : ) Set the trap last night, big mole caught this morning.
This is a good trap. The only challenge with it is you need to “know” the direction the mole is taking. As silly as it sounds, if the mole trap is set in the opposite pathway of his burrow, you have to wait and potentially flip it around. Or lay down two traps in opposite directions. Thats what I do and works effectively.
I think this is why they are sold in pairs. I just bought two pairs so I'd have two opportunities to catch some very destructive moles before the ground freezes.
I have been trapping moles for the past 30+ years , and can say these traps work great ......not 100% of the time , I haven't had a single one back filled with soil , like the Duffus traps get , mainly set of by improper setting in tunnels (my fault) , but on the whole , a very good trap, so much so I now have 2000 of them for my business .
Im thinking of getting intobthe mole removal business ..ive always used scissor traps...why did you decide on these trap line traps ?
Once you have them in your lawn you won't feel sorry for them. They're very destructive and I've found them to be nearly impossible to get rid of.
I've tried other traps without any success so I think I might get a couple of these.
P....dad finally relented and let me order some lethal traps. He wanted me to live trap and relocate the moles.
Just set four of these. This is an excellent video.
I just finished setting two traps and when I went to cover my work I saw one of the traps start to move. Over the next 30-60 seconds the trap's trigger end started moving outwards and upwards. The mole must have been pushing down and back on the jaws end which lifted the trigger end and the vole just kept going until the trap was completely out of the tunnel. After the show I've re-set the traps. This time I dug the jaws end in much deeper into the dirt. Hope to see a dead vole or two but am worried that learned behavior is going to foil my attempts.
how would you cover it?, what if the mole comes from the other direction?,, i use duffus traps, you can cover them with soil without the run filling up, and sometimes you can catch 2 moles in one trap. they are also know as break back traps.
How quick it is !! LOL ..How irrelevant is that ? What do you think is going in that dirt - a fast reverse gear on those critters
When I first moved to my property here in Montana (7 yrs ago)........there were TONS of pocket gophers. (15, to be exact).
They DESTROYED the yard. I couldn't mow or I would hit the mounds and dull the blades.
I bought 4 of these traps (2 medium, 2 large). In 10 days I COMPLETELY ELIMINATED ALL the gophers. These are THE BEST
traps money can buy. AND.......I consider them EXTREMELY CHEAP for what they do. (At the time, $7 ea.)
I bought 12 of these traps, I have them all set out in my backyard now. I plan to check them in a few days. With any luck, I will have the little critter. I am aiming at the very least to maim him! They are destroying my yard!
a lot of times when your yard is all tore up and you would think there has to be 15-20 moles , and may only be 2 or 3. one mole can do a lot of digging in a day. work on a fresh tunnel that you see getting longer .
Looks like some awesome engineering. Anyone smart enough to design this so it works from either direction.
yeah, me. buy two, lol.
which size traps did you buy and how many?
Can you tell me how to make the trap
does this trap work in only one direction? so, one needs two of these traps with the jaws facing "outwards" away from each other when placed in an active tunnel
unless you can see the end of the tunnel in the middle of your yard, its only going to come from one direction
my trapline traps work 50% of the time,not good enough to start a mole removal bussiness, does anyone know of a good mole trap? how about tunneltraps?
The large ones for gophers, their site says, 2 for $!4.99 US dollars. I wish they would answer the phone. I don't know which trap to buy, bc I still haven't determined which varmit it is.
seriously? If you had holes all over your yard nearly falling all the time when you walk and the tunnels collapse under your feet, you would have no mercy for these pests!
I agree!! NO MERCY.....they are ruining my lawn and it’s twisted ankles for everyone.
i have more mercy for the mice in my house than i do for a mole in the yard, lol.
Look at this guys fingers!
Pless howmatch prices call
So how do you actually set them in the run? Might be fine for voles but don't see that dropping moles at all...jaws aren't big enough
dont kid your self about size. and the traps come with instructions on where and how to set.
I ordered these traps. I was kind of disappointed my jaws were not razor sharp like the ones in the video. Mine were cut straight across blunt not at all sharp.
how do you know if/when the trap went off?
Usually, you will see the hole looks like it's filled in again. MAKE SURE YOU ATTACH A HEAVY STRING or CHAIN
to the trap, or the little sucker might take it into the tunnel(s) before it dies. But it WILL die. I tie the little chain to
a huge 12" steel spike I punch into the ground about a foot from the hole. They I just slowly pull the chain and remove the critter.
Cartoons
@@jackboot5321 thats the same thing that i do. works great. no lost traps.
and you dont forget where you put the trap in the tunnel. the stake on the chain will find it.
The main reason I dont like these is, its a one way trap, lots of little metal areas for debris to get caught up in and jam or slow the trap. The pincer traps are a two way trap with a center lever so if the mole comes from any direction he can spring it. YMMV.. but the hardy pincer traps work much better IMO.
A s qare trap. I can send pic
Gosh!
Some people are persistently stupid aren't they.
Wasting time on nonsense questions is certainly no way to run a business.
Some people need "a little help" with everything in life - that's there excuse
Mole traps are for moles
Gopher traps are for gophers
Mole traps can be used on shrews, mice and voles when in the ground.
How could they make it any clearer.
Trapline doesn't have a phone number to call for customer service...how professional!
Your real brilliant too GoEnviro....I did email them. They didn't respond. You can't run a business like that. I need a little help determing which trap for which animal to buy, that is if it is any of your nosy business. How rude! I love numwit know it alls who really know nothing!
Are you kidding?! If you ever have the displeasure of interacting with these savage beasts, you'll never have sympathy for them again. They maul your yard... not just live in it like a bird, chipmunk, rabbit, or even a mouse.
Looks like a good trap though. Thanks for posting the vid!
these are good traps, and they dont rust. its amazing just how big a mole you can trap with these traps. mine was a great investment and no more time wasted on expensive traps that are bulky and wont work.
As for whether someone is being "nosy" - well numwit if you slag off a business on an open forum expect a response - especially if you are a complete arrse.
Bye the way I have no relationship to the business other than using the products - which are excellent
Disappointed! Sending them back. The ends are not even sharp and the tension is weak.
Waste of money - I own several of these - rarely work...get a scissor trap - work every time and much easier to set.
Great traps if you can ever receive them. Steve does not return phone calls or answer emails. I won't be ordering anything elese from that crook
I ordered twice from official website and received timely. That's the best gopher killer products in the world .
I agree with Harvard Troy........I got mine within about 4 days. Never had a problem.
I received mine timely, no issues
I ordered recently, very fast. I also emailed with a couple questions, he responded that same day.
i think mine came out of germany. always use pal-pal to avoid getting ripped off by any seller. if you dont already have a pay-pal account , set one up and buy on line with piece of mind.
They're just making homes! The're not MAULING your yard, and they're not SAVAGE! :P
they are not making homes. they are digging tunnels to eat the worms. RTFB. [ read the f---- book]
how cruel.....leave the moles alone...freedom for the moles.......moles rule.......the underworld is ruled by lord mole 3rd....second son of arthur the mole of finland........bow down to your mole masters.....
what have you been smoking LUMPSISH99??????
