Question 1

I'm looking for something that will kill rats but not harm our visiting hedgehog or birds. is this any good?

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately this can harm any animal that can fit inside and in my opinion the opening to the trap is large enough to allow any small animal in,so I don't think this trap is ideal for you.

Question 2

My last Zapper had an extension lead which  indicated when the trap had functioned.  This is on the Amazon, America, site but not on the UK site, why?

Accepted Answer

Hello, Thank you for your enquiry. There is no need to look inside this trap to check for a kill, the indicator light flashes when the trap has killed a Rat or Mouse. Simply empty and reset - 1 set of 4 AA batteries kills 20 rats or mice. If you have any further questions, please let us know. Kind Regards

Question 3

I haven't caught a thing with this and I have placed it in an area where theirs loads of activity. I have tried loads of bait where I'm I going wrong?

Accepted Answer

Personally I found that the trap has to be in an area they frequent and feel safe in, also the bait must be something that they are used to finding in the area. Rats are very intelligent and incredibly suspicious of new items and strange foods. I have assumed you have a rat problem as I did.

Question 4

I got 2 new ones (I already have 2 that work ok). when I turn them on instead of red light that fades I get a green light and a buzzing sound?

Accepted Answer

that is ok it means it is working, the green light and sound will stop shortly after that and the trap is ready, if it catch anything it buzz and have flushing green light i think 2or 3 times after that you will get constant green light indicating sucess. remember to switch the power off before emptying the trap. 
the red light indicate the battery need replacing.
hope this help.
