FAQs How do I set up a Live Catch rabbit Trap? There are four simple steps to setting up a Live Catch Rabbit Trap. Firstly, unfold to flat packed trap and click into place. Wedge the arm on the open side to hold it together. Then, close the back door by sliding the pin through. To arm the trap, open the door and raise the arm on the catch on the top (as shown in our diagrams). This will raise the treadle plate, ready for a rabbit to step on and trap themselves. We’ve created an instructional guide and video the show you exactly how to set it up. We also give you best practices for positioning and what bait to use. < All FAQs
