MICROENCAPSULATED ANIMAL TRAP BAIT AND METHOD OF LURING ANIMALS TO TRAPS WITH MICROENCAPSULATED BAIT

摘要

The present invention is directed towards an animal trap kit and method for luring animals to trap (1). The kit preferably includes an any well known animal trap (1) in combination with a microencapsulated bait (10-12) that can be applied during manufacturing of new traps or existing traps alike. The microencapsulated scent may be applied to the trap via brush, spray (14) or adhesive backed tape (11). The bait (12, 10, 10a, 10b, 10c, 10d) can be activated by merely scratching the scented portion of the trap. Alternatively the microcapsules may be constructed and arranged for timed release of the scents, flavors or phermones contained in the bait.
