LITTLE RIVER TRAP LIBRARY
The Little River Trap Library is open on the second Sunday of each month. It is operated on a voluntary basis and traps are free to loan. We are able to provide advice on best practice and get you started on keeping predator numbers down on your property. Traps are loaned for a period of 3 months, at which time you will be given the option of extending the loan period to 6 months. We have a range of traps and bait stations. All have been well tested and have ethical approval for use. We do not advocate the use of leg hold traps and these are not available. If you are having trouble with rats, stoats, mice, or possums feel free to phone either Geoff Ettrick 3251 332 or Alison Evans 3251 336. We also have some cage traps if you want to catch animals such as feral cats alive and take them to the vet for euthanasia.

A note from Alison – I am still coordinating the Akaroa Trap Library but …we have a new coordinator for the Little River ‘branch’! It is Rouke Bakker who lives in Okuti Valley. He can be contacted on grbakker@gmail.com.

The Trap Library can be found on Okuti Valley Road. Go up the west entrance (the old Bowling Club entrance) of the Okuti Valley Sport and Recreation Club.
