EFFECTIVE, ECONOMICAL, SELECTIVE, SAFER AND ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY METHOD OF CATCHING MUSKRATS USING PLASTIC TUBE NETS

摘要

Using tube nets placed in large numbers. The ideal size is 50 cm long and 25 to 30 cm diameter, manufactured from plastic ((1) figure 1). Sealed at the bottom ((3) figure 1) and provided at the top with one or more flaps ((6) figure 2) or throats (funnels) ((2) figure 1). Fitted with escape openings for small animals ((4) figures 1 and 2). The core of the problem is that there is currently no structural and preventive approach, and many unwanted creatures are trapped. Using tube nets placed permanently in large numbers of locations, the muskrats will be trapped while on the move, before they have chance to breed, quickly reducing the population.
