Zap Trap - the effective solution
Zap Trap is New Zealand's own innovative possum trap. This is a repeat-kill, electronic trap designed to eradicate possums quickly and humanely. It is ruggedly built yet manually portable. It is self-contained and equipped with a rechargable battery and set-and-forget controls.

   

Fatal attraction
Possums are strongly tempted to enter the Zap Trap with the use of a proven lure - fruit jam. Once in the trap, the pest receives a high-voltage electric shock and is killed instantly, humanely and without even damaging the pelt. The base of the trap swings down, drops the possum and automatically returns to the ready position.

Set-and-forget preparation
Once fully charged and set, Zap Trap re-arms itself after each kill,
ready for the next visitor. A full battery charge is sufficient for
around 80 kills - saving substantial travel and trap-setting time over
conventional traps, although regular burial or disposal is recommended.

Environmentally protective
Zap Trap does not use poisoned lures which can kill or deform other animals and birds. Purpose-designed to eradicate only possums, Zap Trap's electronic light-sensor deactivates the trap during daylight and targets these voracious invaders by night. Zap Trap also automatically deactivates if tipped over by excessive force.

Physical Dimensions
The Zap Trap has a fiberglass cover and the main components are metal.  It is designed to be left out in the weather and is portable.  The Zap Trap is 600 x 250mm and stands about 800mm off the ground.
