A reminder on the use of glue traps.

[RosemaryDuck]

One of the wildlife rehab facilities I follow just posted this and I thought I would share here.

Glue traps are not humane for anything, even the animals you do intend to catch.

Or just dispose of whatever is in the trap.

Many types of birds, as well as some snakes and reptiles are protected federally and it is a crime to kill them.

It's always better to contact your local wildlife rehabilitator if you aren't sure.

I've always thought glue traps were inhumane. I only use snap traps. Quick death.

I'm sorry. I catch something in any kind of trap, I'm just gonna get rid of it weather it's protected or not.

And it's that kind of mentality that lands people in federal prison. But it keeps the correctional officers employed, I suppose.

Auto correct strikes again. Unfortunately it can't stop ridiculous post like yours.
Please tell me how it's going to land me in federal prison. Hasn't happened yet.

Same.

Glue traps are tortuously cruel. Nothing deserves that kind of death.

Not if checked regularly. No different than a live trap sitting outside in the sun all day while people are at work. It all comes down to responsibility.
You don't like them, so don't use them, but don't tell me I can't or shouldn't.
