Collection: Rat Snap Traps

Rat snap traps are mechanical devices designed to catch and kill rats quickly and humanely. When a rat triggers the trap by touching the bait or pressure plate, a spring-loaded bar snaps down, capturing the rat instantly.

Place the traps in areas where rats are most active, such as along walls, near food sources, or in hidden corners. Position the traps perpendicular to the wall, with the bait end facing the wall to maximise effectiveness.

Yes, many rat snap traps are designed to be reusable. Simply clean the trap thoroughly after each use to remove any odours and reset it with fresh bait.

Rat snap traps can pose a risk to pets and children if not placed properly. Use traps in areas out of reach of curious hands and paws, or opt to house the trap in secured rat bait stations.

Wear gloves when handling the trap and carefully remove the mouse. Dispose of the rat in a sealed plastic bag and place it in your outdoor bin. Clean and sanitise the trap before reusing it.

Check your traps daily to see if they’ve caught a rat. Regular checks help ensure the trap is working effectively and prevent any health risks associated with leaving a rat in the trap for too long.
