Modified Victor Stoat and Rat Trap

The Victor Modified Rat and Stoat Trap is an effective light weight trap. It has a bait shroud that ensures rats and stoats interact with the trap and lure from the most effective direction and are dispatched humanely.

A more cost-effective and lightweight alternative to the DOC 150 and 200 in a wooden box.

Suitable for humanely killing stoats and rats

Meets NAWAC guidelines when used correctly

History
The Modified Victor was developed by Grant Morriss and Bruce Warburton of Manaaki Whenua Landcare Research NZ Ltd. They developed it to provide the pest control industry with a more cost-effective and lightweight alternative to the DOC 150 and 200.
Grant and Bruce undertook extensive tests on the trap to determine the humanness of Victor Modified Stoat and Rat traps. They found that the modified Victor trap passed international international standards.

After these trials Grant and Bruce sought a commercial partner to take the trap to a commercial stage where it could be manufactured and marketed on a commercial scale. Traps.co.nz undertook this task and designed plastic injection moulded parts that would fit onto the Victor to achieve the same results that the prototype trap achieved in the Landcare trials. We designed a trigger that holds a slice of the Muselid and Cat Lure; the blocks of lure can be sliced to a size that will fit the trigger.
