Could someone please tell me how the bait pouch works? Do I need to use an additional bait cage? Thanks!

I like to use a bait cage, you can fing them on any of the web sites, amazon, overstock, they are stronger, and I can really pack it full of bait, the pouch is alright but seals can pull the bait out of the pouch, the cages are just zip tied to the bottom of the nylon pouch and stay in place.

i got a mesh bag like the one you get produce in and ziptied it down. i know i could have gone out and bought a bait cage but didn't want to

Yes I would use one, the bait pouch is in the lower small ring (just a slit in the mesh that surrounds the ring). In my area (southern California) a sea lion or seal could easily get the bait out. If you don't have Seal/Sea Lions, it would work fine without a bait cage I think.

The bait works well.You need the plastic container to put the bait in.Looks like a box with two 3 inch holes on each end and a lid for the bait

Most likely to much bait. I was doing that at first. I took a butter knife and just got a dab on the tip of the knife and put it on the rim of the bait hole. Make them have to go all the way to the hole. They have strong smell. They will go for it. Hope it works!

Unfortunately there isn't a place to keep you fish. If you are taking about live bait you are also out of luck. There are plenty of places to store artificial baits.

This one did not work well at all. The Combat Max Large Roach Bait (link: http://www.amazon.com/Combat-Source-Large-Child-Resistant-Stations/dp/B001ACMBJK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid;=1407113338&sr;=8-1&k;eywords=combat+max+large+roach) works GREAT. I have no idea what the difference is, but it's noticeable by what is left alive after they've been put out.

Frank I don't know where you put the bait . I put the peanut butter on the wall with the holes in it . I wish I had more traps this trap for me works great since I got it I probably have caught 30 or more mice . I hope this helps .

Press the metal bar down and it will catch. You might need to lift up the bait plate, but that's it.

I have not experienced that problem...just had great success.I bait with very small amount of dry dog food and tiny piece of uncooked Bacon.maybe try fresh batteries and be sure unit never gets wet.good luck.

The bait does not stay on the little pegs as shown.I have 2 of these and load them as shown and the bait gets knocked over but has never been carried out. They have worked well for me keep the bait dry and the rats eat the bait .I would reccomend them as they are effective.

We had the same issue- worked great at first, we're catching 3 at a time, but then same as you. I think the latch was sticking. Unfortunately we ended up having to get a pest control in :/

This works good. the rats/mice eat the bait until all gone. the metal pegs stay in place. Just keep adding bait or check once every seven days to see how fast there eating the bait. They will eat a lot the first month and slow down once they start dyeing.

I will be using mine without a reel. Take about 18 ft mono, tye one end where the reel go's,run the line through the eye's,then stretch out the rod.You now have 10 ft of rod and about 8 ft of line and hook an bait to swing out under a tree overhanging the water. You have to walk easy,keep way down,and creep up Swing out your bait and you should catch plenty. Worm or cricket or knock down out of a tree a wasp nest somewhere and use the white pupi inside. That is how i catch perch! answer to question The 10 foot rod gives me more reach without casting.

Can't answer your first question, but the bait has a hole in it that a pin fixed to the box passes through. Bait only leaves the station in the rodent's mouth or stomach...

The traps I have do not appear to catch any worms, and i would think that the worms are not of sexual maturity, and thus not affected by the pheromone bait. Sorry

I wish I could be more encouraging but I'm not sure that the unit did anything. The best answer is to get some large traps and bait them with peanut butter and mix in a few peanuts.

no bait. I bought a large container, but haven't used it all because it killed all my voles :-)

I buried mine in my garden, but other options might be to bury it deep in your compost pile or empty the trap into a bag and then dump into your yard debris recycle bin right before pick-up. (If your trash/recycling company allows you to add "food scraps" to your recycling.) One warning - new flies are attracted by the smell of the bait, so be prepared for flies to swarm around the empty trap until you get a chance to clean it and to be very interested in where ever you dump the old bait. (Burying it might sound like over-kill, but even a few inches of dirt seemed to make the new flies lose interest and go elsewhere.)
