Resoakable Felt Lures

 

Keep your traps working harder, for longer.

 

A trap is only as effective as the lure that brings pests to it. But in the bush, scent fades, weather takes its toll, and curious visitors can quickly strip away what made your trap attractive in the first place. After around 30 days, many lures have lost their edge.

 

Our Resoakable Felt Lures are designed to keep your trap performing for longer.

 

Made from natural wool, these biodegradable lures are gentle on the whenua while standing up to the demands of a busy trap line. Their soft, fibrous texture encourages pests to bite where you want them to, and when it’s time to refresh them, simply spray them with lure. No waste, no mess, no replacing perfectly good lures.

 

Once recharged, they continue attracting pests for up to 90 days, helping you spend less time maintaining traps and more time protecting what’s important.

 

Compatible with a wide range of kill traps, including:

 

Possums: Flipping Timmy, Timms, Trapinator

Rats: D-Rat, Gorilla, Snap-It

Mice: Gorilla, Snap-It

 

Whether you’re managing a handful of traps or hundreds, Resoakable Felt Lures make it easy to keep every set working at its best.

Short answer: You use Resoakable Lures by soaking them in your chosen lure (oil, paste, mayo), installing them in the trap, and re‑soaking them every few months to keep the attraction zone active.

Below is a clear, practical summary tailored for field use.

1. Choose the correct lure type

  • Felt lures → Possums, rats, mice; Timms, Trapinator, Flipping Timmy, D‑Rat, Gorilla, Snap‑It.
  • Clay lures → 150/200/250 series traps; best where mice interference is a problem.

2. Soak the lure

  • Felt:
    • Fully saturate in your lure product for 5 minutes.
    • Ready to deploy immediately.
  • Clay:
    • Place in lure overnight for full saturation.
    • Suitable for long‑duration or remote trap lines.

3. Install in the trap

  • Position the lure exactly where the trap’s design expects the attractant to be:
    • Possum kill traps: inside the bait cavity or bite‑point area.
    • Rat/mouse traps: on the lure peg, hook, or designated lure recess.
    • 150/200/250 traps: in the lure chamber where animals investigate.

The lure acts as a long‑life scent and interest point, not a food item.

4. Maintain the attraction zone

  • Resoak every 60–90 days depending on weather and target species.
  • No need to replace the lure body — just re‑soak and reinstall.
  • Pair with Smooth Pastes, Lure‑It Oils, or Mayo for maximum scent longevity.

5. Field benefits

  • Trap remains attractive for months instead of weeks.
  • Fewer wasted checks and fewer “dead” traps.
  • Reduced lure consumption and labour.
  • More consistent strike rates across the line.
