Can I use these rat snap traps in my garden? I have seen a rat running along the back wall a few times. John Ryan asked on 21/10/2022

Yes, absolutely. Just make sure the traps are not left in the open as birds and other non-target animals could get trapped in them. The best is to use them inside Rodent Bait Stations

Admin answered on 21/11/2022 store manager

I put some deep under the garden shed and they did the trick after 2 days!
