About this product
The ROSHIELD 4 x Rat Traps are a professional-grade solution for rodent control, designed to offer an effective and reliable method of managing rat infestations within your home. These traps are built with heavy-duty materials and feature a high strength spring and sensitive trigger mechanism, making them suitable for both domestic use and for those working in pest control settings. They’re specifically engineered for rat control, utilising a larger trigger plate that reacts effectively to rats, improving catch rates compared to smaller mouse alternatives.
This kit includes four reusable traps, ideal for tackling low to medium infestation areas. The robust construction incorporates metal and plastic components, ensuring durability and longevity. Setting the traps is straightforward – instructions are included within the kit, alongside support videos demonstrating placement and operation. No prior experience is necessary to utilise this system effectively.
These traps utilise a hand-powered mechanism with an instant killing action. The heavy-duty spring combined with the welded kill bar swiftly dispatches rodents that enter the trap’s designated area. They can be installed within Roshield rodent bait stations for comprehensive coverage. Please note that these are snap traps and, as such, do not offer a humane catch-and-release option.
The ROSHIELD RRT4 kit provides a practical and cost-effective approach to rat control. The reusable design helps reduce ongoing expenses, and the easy-set mechanism allows for quick and safe placement of the traps. This unit consists of four black traps weighing 0.42 kilograms – perfect for extending across your property.
