Basically, there are different approaches to pest control. In this article we would like to introduce you to the advantages of using rodent traps compared to the use of poison baits. DEUFA offers high-quality rodent traps as an environmentally friendly and effective alternative to chemical pest control products.

Rodent traps are the most effective and at the same time the most humane method of controlling rodents of all kinds without the use of poisons. DEUFA manufactures conventional impact and live traps, the advantages and disadvantages of which are explained in the article on this. Link will follow

1. Environmental friendliness: The use of traps enables poison-free pest control. In contrast to the use of poison baits, the environment is not polluted when animal traps are used; no poisons enter the cycle and secondary poisoning is ruled out. This protects other living creatures, beneficial insects and other animals.
2. Specific use: Animal traps allow targeted control of pests when used correctly. They can be set up in such a way that they target individual animal species and deter remaining animals by using specific baits. The selective effect of the traps reduces the risk of unintentional false catches.
3. Success monitoring: If the pest is caught in the trap, you will notice the success of the catch and can dispose of the animal (impact trap) or release it in suitable places (live trap). When poison baits are used, the animals often die in places that are difficult to access, are then not found and decompose. This creates unpleasant odours, the source of which is often difficult to determine.
4. Species justice and compatibility: After picking up poison baits, pests often die slowly (several days) and painfully. In contrast, animal traps, when used correctly, ensure pest control either through species-appropriate killing (impact traps) or live capture. It is important to check the live traps regularly (every 4-6 hours!) to keep the stress of the animals in the trap body as low as possible.
