Target species: Magpies and other small pest birds and animals

“Escaping is not really an option”

Magpie trap is a live capture cage trap for targeting small species like magpies, mynas, pigeons, ducks, pukekos, rabbits, and more.

This trap is perfect for small pests due to its door locking system and small mesh size – 25mm - it prevents the animal or bird from escaping.

This live capture cage trap is great for trap shy animals like rabbits as its easy to camouflage due to the green powder coating.

For greater rust protection, the trap is double coated – made from zinc coated steep and then powder coated for extra protection.

Use a suitable bait to lure the birds or animals to the traps.
