The rabbit trap should be sited where rabbit damage is occurring, Rabbit Trap should always be sited as soon as damage is spotted. Set your rabbit trap NOW ! Don't wait until half your crop has been eaten by the rabbits. On grass fields or cereals this will usually start along the ditch cop, headlands or directly opposite burrows,other sources of food should be eliminated wherever possible. Ideally The Rabbit Trap, should be set out approximately 10 feet apart, in a parallel line of traps about 10 feet out from their cover, hedgerow, ditch cop etc. The rabbit trap can also be sited in open fields where rabbits have been observed feeding recently.

Check the number of rabbits to gauge how many rabbit traps to purchase.
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.
Set the rabbit trap by first 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 pass the trigger rod through the hole in the open door then though the marked hole in the cage top.
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.
Once baited the 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.
