Presentation of the rabbit tunnel

The rabbit tunnel is a rabbit trap. It is a rabbit trap to be placed in the mouth of the burrows. It is very effective for ferret hunting and no special bait is required. However, we recommend using several rabbit traps to place them at as many burrow exits as possible. If the rabbit sees the trap at the exit, it will prefer to go through another exit. It is therefore best to use several traps.

It should also be noted that the wild rabbit is not only trapped with the aim of being killed, it is often trapped in order to be vaccinated against numerous diseases that it is likely to carry. In this case, the rabbit trap for sale below is the ideal trap for vaccinating wild rabbits.

This rabbit trap has a cylindrical shape and a diameter of 12 cm, it has two entrances and the rabbit trap is equipped with a carrying handle for added convenience.

The wild rabbit:

This is a very common rodent throughout France. It can be easily distinguished from its cousin the hare because it is much smaller and has a silhouette closer to the domestic rabbit.

The wild rabbit is not considered a pest in all French departments. We therefore advise you to find out beforehand whether you can legally trap it. 

Nevertheless, it is an animal that can cause a lot of damage. In departments where it is classified as a pest, the wild rabbit can cause serious damage to forest plantations and crops. In this case, the use of rabbit traps is largely justified.

In addition, the wild rabbit can carry many diseases. According to the OFB (Office Français de la Biodiversité) website, the wild rabbit is likely to be a vector of rabbit viral haemorrhagic disease (RHD), myxomatosis or coccidiosis. This is the main reason why vaccination is sought in some areas. You should therefore be careful when using a rabbit trap. 

Finally, rabbit holes can also cause damage. Some municipalities, or even professionals, can be bothered by this rodent. In this case, a rabbit trap can be useful to limit the population and therefore the damage.
