Description
The WCS Tube Trap is approved for use on grey squirrel, mink, weasel and rat. It is constructed from a 380mm long, 21-gauge steel tube of 114mm diameter, powered by a powerful double torsion spring. All parts are precision cut by laser, so there are no sharp edges to contend with. It has a pale green plated finish to give resistance to rusting. The UK approved version has a considerably more powerful spring than it’s American counterpart and is additionally fitted with two ‘killing bars’ inside the tube.

From 1st April 2020 these trap are no longer approved for stoat in the UK. Where stoats are known to be present, or likely to be caught, an AIHTS compliant trap should be used. As the law is currently unclear about accidental stoat catches, anyone setting a trap must do their own risk assessment.
With the implementation of the Wildlife Management & Muirburn (Scotland) Act 2024, attending an approved training course and gaining accreditation will soon be required for anyone intending to use these specific traps in Scotland. Exact date TBC.
