Hoody – for Victor Professional
$5.50Add to cartOne step into a Hoody and it’s all over.
Rats are nervous critters, expecting them to walk deep into box traps, or tunnels, is low percentage trapping. Expecting them to pull on a baited trigger is equally so. The less they have to commit, the more you will catch.
The Hoody is a bolt on for the Victor Professional that lets a trapper take the best attributes of the Victor and while addressing many of the issues.
Hides lure from birds.
Operates via standard Victor Professional treadle (triggers on inspection.)
