The Longworth Small Mammal Trap has been the industry standard in ecological surveying for many years. Suitable for live-trapping small mammals such as mice and voles. This trap is built to a high quality construction with adjustable sensitivity, this offers one of the best catch rates. Offers a seperate nest box area for food and hay, angled so that water drains out. This model has a hole which allows shrews to escape. Please see SKU 12625 for the model without shrew hole.
This trap consist of two parts - a tunnel, which contains the door tripping mechanism - and a nest box, which is attached to the back of the tunnel. The nest box provides a large space for food and bedding material and when in use it is positioned at an upwards angle to the trap tunnel to prevent rain entering the nest box and to provide drainage of urine or condensation. When the trap is not in use the tunnel can be conveniently placed inside the nest box for easy carriage or storage.
Some small mammal species are protected by law (shrews in the UK) and you must obtain a licence from Scottish Natural Heritage or Natural England if you want set traps with the intention of trapping any species of shrew. Please ensure you are aware, and meet the requirements specified, of any relevant laws in the country you are in.
