I’ve done a lot of reading on trapping sites about different products and have noticed negative comments on certain brands of traps that I know do don’t stand the reality test. It’s obvious that manufacturers are stealth involved in steering people’s opinions about products away from competitors. This is common practice everywhere on the web. Reviews must be viewed cautiously and then with discernment the truth can be discerned. I’m convinced there are forum members who are in guise working for or owning certain companies to steer customers their way. Just an observation I wonder if others have noticed.

Positive reviews are hard to always trust too.

Yes, there is a lot of crooked marketing in the trapping community
