As rule of thumb the size of the rabbit population can be easily obtained by counting rabbits at the site of damage, during the daytime in heavily infested areas or at night, using a spotlight. Where feasible, the number
of rabbit traps used should be one half of the total number of rabbits counted. In glasshouses and allotments where only a few rabbits can cause considerable damage, a minimum of 6 rabbit traps should be used.

Place each Trap Man rabbit trap in line with the hedgerow or ditch cop facing away from their harbourage, bait lines should run towards the next Rabbit Trap & across its entrance. Prepare the bait with fresh carrots cut length wise in to four, lay the bait in a trail to just inside the rabbit trap, place another (3) pieces right at the back of the rabbit cage trap under the treadle under the cage, place a line of bait 1mt apart between the rabbit traps. The bait inside the trap must be maintained at the back of the trap or under the trap directly under the wire treadle, but the bait out side the trap should not be replaced

Set the live catch rabbit trap by first holding on to the handle and give the trap a good shake, then pull on the rear panel until it is firm against the rear of the cage. Flip up the secondary lock on to the top of the door, holding the door up against the roof with the secondary lock prongs through the cage roof, with your other hand place the looped end of the setting rod over the marked bar in the roof of the cage, pull the trigger rod towards the front of the cage until the door rests upon it. Sensitivity can be adjusted by bending the end of the setting rod up to lessen the sensitivity or down to increase the sensitivity. Check that the treadle plate is 20mm above the cage floor approx. 30°. Check the treadle does trip the door when pressed, and that the secondary door locks it correctly (on grass). Once baited the Trap Man Live Catch Rabbit Traps MUST be visited regularly and AT LEAST ONCE PER DAY, other non target animals must be released unharmed. The bait inside the trap must be maintained under the treadle under the trap, but the trail of bait out side the trap should not be replaced once the rabbits have started to take it. Rabbits can be removed by slowly tipping the trap onto it's end and reaching in through the now open door or turning the trap over onto it's roof to open the door and let the rabbit run out.
