Looking for an instructor for mole removal. Preferred being taught with the Victor Out of sight trap and the Trapline Products trap. If you are a full time, long time mole trapper who has had students in the past please PM me with some information of where, when, how long, and cost. Motels close by etc. Have some basic experience, looking for detail instructions.
PM's work well
Thanks
VS

Josh Jones callthetrapper.com TRapper on here used to offer mole trapping training. Reach out to him. I sent a guy out to him. Worth the money.

i responded to you on the email. have had several students fly in...got 4 hotels within 1 mile of me. 3 days of trapping moles...first day we are talking moles and selling/locating correct placements of traps, they are also watching me set traps and by the end of the day i have them setting at least a couple traps. second day more location teaching and then i set a trap, then they set a trap, back and forth. it helps them refine their confidence setting traps. 3rd day we are checking the yards we set the first 2 days and setting some more. Location is the biggest teaching i do. Why set 6 to 8 traps per mole when you can set 1 to 2 traps per mole. make more stops a day and still kill the moles in the yards.

mid april to mid june is usually the best time for us here in Central Iowa.

$500 for 3 days. Could probably charge more... have had students tell me i should. but i am good with that.

i should note that i only use the out of sight...have caught lots of moles with the trapline traps but currently don't have any...i am deadly with the out of sight...don't need the other trap. Location is much more important than trap selection. i also only have the eastern mole here in iowa...no other species

You knocked me outa the loop David by not using Albano or spear traps.
I've sure wore moles out and earned good $$ with those two traps.

I have caught moles consistently with every mole trap I could find to buy. Location much more important than the trap as I am sure you would agree traprjohn

John the Albano and the trapline products trap are the same thing.
